Postcards: in or out?

 

So there wasn't a new Project Runway this week -- but as a slight consolation, we've discovered the ultimate in shameless fan paraphernalia: the Tim Gunn postcard by local greeting card company La Familia Green. Like the rest of her designs, Chicagoan Mollie Green (she's rooting for Jillian and Chris, by the way) handmakes each postcard in her Logan Square studio. We can't think of a better token to leave on your PR-obsessed coworkers' desk. Or, you're behind on your cross-country correspondence, we suggest you pick one up, grab a pen and a 26-cent stamp and, you know -- make it work.

Bye-bye, Bordo's

After 11 years and a recent ownership change, Lincoln Park bar and lounge, Bordo's, a hotspot for the post-college crowd in its heyday—is closing its doors after Super Bowl Sunday. Come March, look for yet another sports bar to move into Lincoln Avenue, The Spread. The owners of Club 720 are behind the new upscale sports lounge, which will feature outdoor seating, a completely new look and an opening week contest where the public is invited to submit recipes and name suggestions for The Spread’s signature cocktail. Stay tuned for more details…
