I am a sun worshiper. I love the sun in the big blue sky and the smell of the sun kissed skin, but I also concern about the skin cancer. This research report gives me some hope even though the researchers did this study on the mice.

Teammates....

If you follow Formula One (F1), then you'll get this commercial. If not, those two in the commercial are the fastest F1 drivers this year thus far, and they are teammates for McLaren/Mercedes Benz F1 team. The guy at the end is Mika Hakkinen, a 2 time F1 World Champion, also a McLaren/Mercedes Benz pilot.

Caffé RōM

Here comes another coffee bar in downtown Chicago. Caffé RōM, a new venture by the founder of CAFFÉ BACI. I walked by (Hyatt Center on Franklin & Monroe) the other day but I didn't go in. According to its press release, Caffé RōM serves its coffee from Caffé Umbria. It just happens the family that owns Caffé Umbria also owned Torrefazione Italia, which was later sold to Starbucks. I have never had Caffé Umbria's coffee before, but the coffee from Torrefazione Italia was decent, and they poured nice latte arts. I will go check out Caffé RōM one day, although I am more interested in its gelato.

L’Orange.

ING (Internationale Nederlanden Group) is a global financial services company with its HQ in Netherlands. It has been quietly opening up cafes around the country, and there is one in Chicago.

A friend of mine texted me about it a week ago, and Chicago Tribune just ran a story yesterday. Go check it out, use their free wi-fi and drink their free coffee when they're open later this month!
