Chicagoans going to Michigan for thanksgiving - keep an eye on the weather. The stretch in Indiana along the lake is going to get a bunch of lake effect snow during the day SATURDAY, and that area is straight up dangerous when it snows.

Riddle me this: this NWSL championship game is on CBS. There are zero commercials in-play. Where’s the ad revenue come from?

We added WAY too many lentils, but damn. This is DELICIOUS even without the cream.
