*3Judy Baar Topinka dies at age 70
By MATTHEW [email protected]
Illinois Comptroller JudyBaar Topinka died in the earlymorning hours Dec. 10 of com-plications from a stroke lessthan 24 hours before, accord-ing to Brad Hahn, spokesmanfor the comptroller.
She was 70 years old.Topinka of Riverside
served as state comptroller forfour years and was re-electedin November for a second four-year term.
Topinka went to MacNealHospital in Berwyn the morn-ing of Dec. 9 after feeling dis-comfort, according to Hahn. Sheunderwent testing for a possi-ble stroke and was under obser-vation when she lost conscious-ness. She was pronounced deadshortly after 2 a.m.
“We are deeply saddenedto learn of the passing of ourdear friend and trusted electedofficial Judy Baar Topinka,”said Mike Dropka, spokesmanfor the Riverside Township Re-publican Organization. “Shehas affected countless lives andprovided immeasurable lead-ership over the course of heralmost 20-year tenure to River-side Township as the RiversideTownship Republican Commit-teeman. Her legacy of commonsense and fiscal accountabilityare standards that our organi-zation will strive to carry on.”
Topinka held a long andstoried career as an Illinoispolitician. She served as statetreasurer from 1995 to 2007 andbecame the first Illinois trea-surer to serve three terms. Sheran for governor in 2006 and be-came the state’s first female Re-publican nominee for the seat.She lost the governors race butquickly bounced back into Illi-
nois politics when she won thecomptroller’s seat in 2010. Withthat win, she became the firstwoman in state history to beelected to two Constitutionaloffices, according to the comp-troller’s website.
Following her most recentwin for a second term as comp-troller, Topinka credited beingelected in the close race be-
cause of her particular brandof straight talk and her localroots.
“I think they think I’mstraight talking – one of them– I haven’t forgotten where Icame from,” Topinka said af-ter the election. “They feel afamilial relationship. And Ilike that. I’ve come up the hardway.”
A lifelong resident of Riv-erside, Topinka would attendNorthwestern University’sMedill School of Journalismand graduate with a degree in1966. She worked as a respect-ed journalist for 11 years forarea community newspapers,including the Berwyn Life.

RIVERSIDE – Riverside Po-lice Chief Tom Weitzel was athree-year veteran patrol offi-cer in Riverside when he wasblown off his feet by a shotgunblast to the chest at 3:15 a.m.Aug. 13, 1987, while conduct-ing a traffic stop. He survivedbecause he was wearing a bul-letproof vest.
Later that day, then Sen.Judy Baar Topinka calledhim at the hospital and askedhim if she could visit. It wasthe start of a professional andpersonal friendship that lasteduntil her death Dec. 10.
“She came to my bedsideand the first thing she saidwas, “How are you doing?”Then she asked, “What can Ido?” Weitzel said.
Wei t ze l sa id he wasstunned with her next ques-tion.
“She said, ‘Tom, can I writeyou a check to replace yourvest?’ She offered to purchasea new one for me right thenand there when I was lying in
my hospital bed.”Weitzel was patrolling
the northeast side of townwhen he spotted a car parkedat night when parking was
prohibited in the village. Ashe approached the car withheavily tinted windows, hecould make out the outline ofthree men inside. The driv-
er stepped out and fired a12-gauge shot at Weitzel.
Still in the hospital, Weit-zel said Sen. Topinka thentold him she and he were go-
ing to be looking at some leg-islation about tinted windowswhen he was feeling better.

“My specialty is recycledart; taking garbage items andturning them into somethinguseful,” Musiel said. “Like tak-ing plastic bags, cutting theminto strips and weaving theminto sleeping mats or bean bagchairs, lots of different things.”But first, she needs to get
there, and that’s why she’sreaching out to the communityto help with the cost.“What this is going to fund
is my expenses while I’m there– housing, food, transportationto get around,” Musiel said. “Ifhave anything left, that willbe donated to the ministriesdown there. Bill and DorothySmith have been missionariesin Haiti 28 years.”Musiel, who has an associate
degree from the College of DuP-age,planstoattendamissionaryschool andgetherbachelor’s de-gree in missionary work whenshe returns. She said she haswanted to be a missionary fora long time, ever since a groupfrom an African missionary or-phanage visited her church, theLa Grange Christian Assemblyin La Grange Highlands.“That really inspired me,”
she said.Asked why she would
choose a place as troubledand often dangerous as Haiti,Musiel said she visited Haitiin March and decided then itwould be her place of work.“There is gang violence in
Haiti, but they like the mis-sionaries,” she said. “In CeteSole, one of the poorest citiesin the Western Hemisphere,the only church and schoolthey have there was started byBill and Dorothy Smith.“I’ve been trying to figure
out where to go to,” she added.“I feel it really suits my skillsand theyhave it all set up formeto get started. The timing wasright, too, because I just finishedmy associate degree. I wanted totest my calling before I committo getting a missionary degreeand doing this full time.”Contributions can be made

“Back then, everyone wasvery neighborly,” Lang said.“Even if you didn’t want any-thing, you would stop in andsay hello. She was always veryfriendly, outgoing.”
Those that worked closelywith Topinka on Republicanparty issues said they will con-tinue on her legacy.
“When she came in,you were never bored.
She was a great lady andshe will be missed.”

• FRIENDContinued from page 4
“True to her word, shecalled me about a month laterand said after reading the ac-counts of what took place thatnight, she thought we shouldstart looking at some legisla-tion on how dark widows canget tinted. She proposed a lawthat said windows could notbe tinted more than 35 per-cent.”
Weitzel said there was lotof legislation that Topinkachampioned for law enforce-ment over the years, and alot that he worked on withher.
“She was a steadfast sup-porter of law enforcement,not only local, but statewide,”Weitzel said. “She was a won-derful person who always tookmy phone calls and would callme directly on my cell phone.Law enforcement in Illinoishas lost a great supporter andfriend.”
Remembering Topinka
“Michelle and I were saddenedto learn of the passing of IllinoisState Comptroller Judy BaarTopinka. Judywas an institutionin Illinois politics. Her publicservice spannedmore than 30years, including her tenure inthe state legislature and as chairof the Illinois Republican Party.Judywas a fierce advocatefor her constituents, which Igot to see firsthandwhen shewas state treasurer – the firstwoman to hold that office. Shewas blunt, pragmatic, unfailinglycheerful and energetic, andalwayswilling to put politicsaside to find commonsensesolutions that made a differencefor the people of Illinois. Shewillbe greatly missed. Michelle and Iextend our deepest sympathiesto Judy’s family, friends andconstituents today.”President Barack Obama

On Dec. 1, Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, myfellow Cook County commissioners and I were sworn in for the2014-18 term. We welcomed two new members to the board, Com-missioner Luis Arroyo Jr., representing the north side of Chicago,and Commissioner Richard Boykin, representing Chicago’s westside and near western suburbs.
As I look forward to mysecond term on the CookCounty Board, I have a tre-mendous sense of gratitudeto the residents of the 16thDistrict who sent me to theboard in 2010 and re-elected me last month. Without the effortsof so many of my family, friends and volunteers giving tirelesslyto our campaign, I would not have been elected. During my firstterm in office, I focused on increasing county services to our dis-trict; holding the line on taxes and fees and improving efficiencyat the county. Every year we have approved balanced budgets,reduced the county subsidy to the health and hospital system,reduced the jail population, cut staff and recruited some of thebest government professionals across county government. Noneof these reforms would have been possible without the leader-ship of President Preckwinkle and my colleagues on the board.
In the past four years, we were able to secure tax incentivesfor several businesses that are redeveloping industrial sitesaround the district and adding hundreds of jobs. We successful-ly lobbied for funding for affordable housing, flood remediationand road improvements. We supported legislation to reducegreenhouse gases, to make our County Lobbying Ordinancemore transparent and to streamline our revenue collection pro-cedures to help more people to pay their fines and fees. We areexpanding the offerings at the Cook County Forest Preserve andare now connecting several bike paths near the Brookfield Zoo.
My second term focus will be to continue moving forwardon our agenda of investing in the 16th District and makingcounty government more efficient. With our looming pensionchallenges and turmoil in Springfield, there will be difficultdecisions to make and undoubtedly a lot of pain. My efforts willbe to reduce the impact on the hard-working families of CookCounty, but to work with President Preckwinkle to make thosetough decisions to keep Cook County moving in the right direc-tion toward progress and prosperity. It won’t be easy, but withyour support we will continue to look for new ways to make the16th District an even better place to live, work and invest.
Have a joyous holiday season and a Happy New Year!
Jeffrey Tobolski is the Cook County Commissioner for the16th District and mayor of the village of McCook.

OUR VIEW
Before she was a politi-cian, Judy Baar Topinka wasan award-winning journalist.
Topinka, 70, died early Dec.10, less than a day after shesuffered a stroke. She wasthe first woman in Illinoisto serve in two state consti-tutional offices. She had justwon re-election in Novemberas state comptroller.
Topinka served the publicas a journalist before devot-ing her life to public serviceas an elected official.
She attended NorthwesternUniversity’s Medill School ofJournalism and graduatedwith a degree in 1966. Aftergraduation she worked parttime for the Berwyn, Ciceroand Stickney-Forest ViewLife Newspapers before beinghired full time in 1971. In herjournalism career, Topinkawas a reporter, educationeditor, feature writer, featureeditor and photographer. Shewon awards from the IllinoisWomen’s Press Association,the Illinois Press Associationand the Illinois State MedicalSociety.
Topinka, a Republican,morphed into one of the mostoutspoken politicians inIllinois and was a trailblazerfor women in politics.
“She was a great publicservant with unlimited fightin her, not only for issues, butfor people she believed in,”said U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski,D-Western Springs. “Judy
knew how to get things doneand was willing to do what ittakes to get them done. Shewas one-of-a-kind and will bedearly missed.”
Topinka, a lifelong River-side resident, won electionto the Illinois House in 1980.She moved to the state Senatein 1984. Ten years later, shewas elected to the first of herthree terms as state treasur-er. In 2006, she unsuccessful-ly ran against Rod Blagojev-ich for Illinois governor. Shereturned to public office in2010, when she was electedstate comptroller.
During her gubernatorialbid in 2006, Topinka de-scribed Illinois as “a mirac-
ulously wonderful place tolive.” But she also believedit was being hurt and abusedby those in office, which iswhy she decided to run forgovernor.
“If I don’t stop it, I’d becomplicit in watching it godown the tubes, and I don’twant to do that,” Topinkasaid.
In every stop along theway, Topinka had one thingin mind: Making Illinois agreat place to live. Her stylemight have been consideredunorthodox. Her personalitymight have been off-puttingto some. But her dedicationto Illinois and public servicecan’t be questioned.
Topinka was devoted topublic service in Illinois

It’s Your MoneyBy Linda Sokol Francis, E.A.
DID YOU MAKE THESE IRAMISTAKES?
Did you put in enough? The more you put in, the moreyou can deduct – up to $5,500 this year and as much as$6,500 if you were born before 1961.
Missed a deadline? You actually have until tax-filing deadline – usually April15 – to make a contribution. Don’t put it off.What kind of rollover? If you’ve changed jobs and want to roll over youremployer’s retirement plan to your IRA, be sure it’s a direct rollover. If you touchthe money, there’s a 60-day rollover deadline and a 20-percent mandatorywithholding tax. If you have a 401K or pension sitting someplace that you nolonger work at, don’t leave your money there. Roll it over tax deferred.Take the money out too soon? Keep the account intact until you are 59 1/2, oryou’ll pay a 10-percent penalty on top of the usual taxes on the withdrawal.(At age 70 1/2, of course, you will HAVE to start taking a required minimumdistribution.)Happy Holidays!

SOUND OFFReflecting on Topinka
I’ll miss not encountering JudyBaar Topinka at estate saleson Saturday mornings. It wasalways nice to see her littlevan with the “Topinka” licenseplate and know she’d be therewith a cheerful smile. Judy BaarTopinka was one of a kind and
one of the best things that everhappened to Illinois “politics.”Miss ya Judy Baar. RIP.
RememberingJudy Baar Topinka
Just want to pay my respectto the people and the state ofIllinois on the terrible loss ofJudy Baar Topinka. She wasone in a million. She’ll never bereplaced. She was a great lady.My respects go to her family –Joe, her son, and the others. Godbless them all.
Holiday safety tipThisholidayseason, if Santabrings
youanyelectronics, takea fewminutes tocutup thecartonsandplace it in theproper containers,notnext to it, soyoudon’t advertisewhatyouhave inyourhouse.
Time to act in D201A recent CUSD 200 report
states we have the second-low-est property taxes collectedper student, second-lowest taxrate, a below average operationexpense per pupil and belowthe state average in per pupilspending. Congratulations BOE– right? No, these austerenumbers mean we can’t com-pete with surrounding districts
to keep and maintain greatteachers and provide currenttechnology and services for ourchildren. The last ED referendumwas 30 years ago. Time to act.
Riots were shamefulIn response to whomever said
the police officer should havebeen charged was completelywrong. The grand jury saw allthe evidence and made sure allbases were covered. They tooktheir time. It’s shameful that itwas turned into a riot situation.Too many people nowadaysare just looking to start trouble.The people that really sufferedwere the people who lived in thecommunity. The lost property,stores in their own backyards.The police officer’s life is ruinedbecause of the incident and willlive with this tragedy the restof his life. Now more than everpolice have to be very careful onwhat they do, especially whenrace is involved. If the shoe wason the other foot, you think therewould have been riots? We allknow the answer to that. Thiscountry is really going downhill.
Commuter tax in Chicago?Here we go again, yet another
politician in Chicago callingfor a tax on commuters whomwork in Chicago? Why don’tthe mayors in the surroundingsuburbs offer the same tax toChicagoans who commute toour towns? That way we couldgenerate tax revenue to holddown our own town’s taxesor increase spending whereit’s needed. Suburban mayorsshouldn’t be intimidated by
Chicago and should stand up forthe citizens in their communi-ties. The number of people livingin Chicago and working in thessuburbs could be a great newsource of income, too. Sad thatthis country is coming to suchmethods to raise money.
On Ferguson, Mo., protestsAfter watching protest march-
es throughout the U.S., I’ve notyet seen the one sign that wouldstop the behavior leading tothe marches. The sign wouldread, “Avoid confrontations withpolice; don’t engage in crime.”
What is torture?The cry baby liberals are at
it again. Imagine those poorbabies – those terrorists – whokilled thousands of Americans.Some got water boarded, weredeprived of sleep or confined tosmall spaces. That’s not torture.If you want to see torture, go to atorture museum or get capturedby ISIS. The CIA got informa-tion to stop future attacks. Theliberals crippled the CIA a few de-cades ago and we got 9/11. Whydo the liberals hate America?
Country needs to uniteI want to compliment the
people who wrote in last week’sSound Off responding to theblack on white nonsense that’sdividing this country in half. Welost more people in the war tofree the blacks than all otherwars combined. Why can we notact like a United States of Ameri-ca? If you look at the stats, moreblacks are killing blacks thanwhites killing blacks.

Create a happyhomemade holiday
One of the best ways to kick off the holiday season is to decorate.And while it’s easy to load your cart with beautiful decor fromyour favorite store, Christmas is more personal when decorationsare homemade.
No time you say? Between planning dinners for the family and throwingcocktail parties for friends, it can be overwhelming. But it is possible tosurvive it (and enjoy it) by keeping everything simple. This season, let yourcreative instincts shine through as you watch your mantels, stairwells, andtables come to holiday life, with ideas like these:
Create a magical mantleFor most families, the living room is where gifts are exchanged, holiday
movies are enjoyed and stories are shared gathered by the fireplace - amajor focal point in the room. Give this cozy centerpiece a warm new lookby creating a decorative display for your mantel.
Draping a festive garland is one way to achieve a distinctive display.Do-it-yourself banners and garland have become increasingly popular as agreat way to personalize your decor.
To make your own, start with a heavy fabric, like burlap or the kindused for upholstery, and cut enough pennants for your favorite holidaysaying, like “Let it Snow.” Then using a snowflake stencil, spray paint thepattern with a silver color. Krylon Metallic Brilliant Silver, for example,works very well on fabric. Spray paint chipboard letters in a bright white.Once everything dries, spell out your message, one letter per pennant,and adhere the letters. Adorn the banner with plastic snowflakes and hollysprigs to finalize the festive look.
Trim a tree like a proThe Christmas tree is another major focal point in your living room
during the holidays. If you’re tired of the same old display year after year,give the tree a fresh look by changing up the ornaments and adding atheme.
Start by choosing a specific color scheme, such as red and gold.Don’t have enough decorations to match your new theme? It’s easy andaffordable to create your own by using items already around the house.For example, use bulbs from an old string of lights to create a whimsicaldecoration. Remove bulbs from the strand and spritz the inside of the bulbwith Krylon ColorMaster Paint + Primer spray paint in cherry red, emeraldgreen and global blue. Roll the bulb around to distribute the paint for abeautiful translucent look. Add a little glitz with Krylon Glitter Spray inresplendent red, glamorous green and magical multicolor to the outside ofthe bulb for a festive look, and top off with your favorite embellishmentslike ribbon or bells. You can even spray paint old ornaments so they fit intoyour new color scheme.
Once your new decor is complete, hang ornaments and lights on yourtree before displaying it for the whole family to enjoy.
Add elegant table toppersIf you are hosting get-togethers for family and friends, add a sparkle
to your table. Not sure where to start? First, choose two or three colors.Select a table cloth, table runner or placemats in your color palette andconsider the arrangement for the middle of the table. Try replacing thetraditional red and green with gold and silver accessories - candles, napkinrings, small figures in the plates and other decorative accents. Includecandles so the flickering flames can create a warm atmosphere. Evencasually scattered pine cones, fir branches, red roses or poinsettias willadd a special touch on the table.
It’s easy to make your fine china the highlight of the dinner; but thisyear, try making your placemats the conversation starter by utilizingantique sheet music - which can be found at old book stores or simplyprinted at home. These sheets will make for a chic and unconventionalbase for any place setting.
Remember, it doesn’t have to be a stressful time of year, with a littleeffort and creativity you can turn take your holiday decor from ho-hum tohomey in no time. More information and additional project ideas can befound at www.krylon.com.

Gift-giving doesn’t come naturally to everyone. If you’re strug-gling to find the perfect present, or if you just need someinspiration, Los Angeles-based celebrity stylist LawrenceVonRompf has tips to help you please all the women on your
holiday shopping list.What makes a great gift? - A little pampering goes a long way.
Put together a sampling of her favorite bath and body products andfragrances and personalize it to show you put thought into the gift.For example, include a monogrammed item like a scented candle orput all the products in a monogrammed gift box.
For the fashionista who has everything - Don’t waste time andmoney trying to find the latest and greatest in style - she probablyalready has it. Instead, VonRumpf suggests enhancing her collectionwith nail polish or lipstick in the season’s hottest colors and shades.
“Nail polishes make great gifts because the unique colors add apersonal touch,” he says. “I love the colors in the Limited-Edition MaryKay At Play Hail to the Nails Mini Nail Trio for this season. On the NewYork Fashion Week runways, navy blue was clearly the new black andMary Kay’s nail lacquer in Inky Blue aligns perfectly with this trend!”
Match her personality - It’s easier to find the right gift if you knowher tastes in fashion, style, music or even favorite colors, VonRumpfsays. Also consider her interests - would she prefer a spa day or acamping trip? A good rule of thumb is to choose a gift she wouldn’texpect - or purchase herself.
For the woman who does everything - Moms are the epitome ofhardworking women and deserve a little “me” time. Surprise her - oranother under appreciated woman in your life- with a pampering giftto make her feel special and loved.
“I’d like to give my mom two things: a chance to unwind and timewe can spend together. My favorite product for her is the Limited-Edi-tion Mary Kay Pomegranate Satin Hands Pampering Set,” VonRumpfsays. “For a personal touch, pair the set with a gift card or a trip to herfavorite nail salon and get a manicure together.”
Under the mistletoe - Whether it’s a budding romance or a long-term relationship, surprise her with something thoughtful and person-al. A scented gift works perfectly, as it offers a touch of personalityand will also remind her of you every time she smells it.
“Mary Kay’s Limited-Edition Winter Wishes Fragrance Wand hascitrus, jasmine and snow apple notes, so it is festive for the seasonbut also smells great on anyone,” says VonRumpf. “The fragrancewand is easy to travel with, so for a truly memorable gift, I suggestpairing it with a little weekend getaway for you and that specialsomeone.”
With these tips, finding the perfect gift for the lucky ladies on yourlist will be a cinch this holiday season. So get your shopping doneearly, relax and wait to see the look of joy on her face when she opensyour present!

Bargain hunting is practically a sport, especially during theholiday shopping season. Deloitte’s 2014 annual holiday surveypredicts the average American will drop nearly $1,300 thisholiday season. With that level of spending in mind, planning
to save real money elsewhere is crucial to managing a household’sbottom line.
Promotions such as standard Black Friday deals or free holidayshipping are nice but often don’t add up very quickly.
Huge value can be found on big-ticket items since their need canbe anticipated months ahead. Purchasing them seasonally or via year-end clearance sales can provide savvy consumers with hundreds orthousands of dollars in savings.
Here are a few examples of productsthat fall into each category:
Year-end closeouts* Cars. With the next year’s models already on lots for a number
of months, dealers are anxious to move cars from the previous year.Moreover, December is their last chance to improve year-end salesnumbers - whether at the dealer or individual salesperson level.
* Flooring. The end of the year is a great time to buy newhardwood flooring. Suppliers and mills often assess their inventory atthis time and clear out product lines before the end of the year. Storessuch as Lumber Liquidators purchase these products at discountedrates and pass the options and savings directly to consumers, result-ing in a great deal that can also increase the value of a home.
Seasonal purchases* Gas grills and air conditioners. Stores may offer deep
discounts on off-season products such as air conditioners and gasgrills. This rule of thumb is particularly valuable for people who livein cold weather climates, where summer goods become especiallyobsolete during the long winter months.
* Furniture. The holiday season brings sales and promotionsat many furniture stores on living and dining room items as peopleare preparing for holiday entertaining. In addition, outdoor furniture isgenerally at its best price due to it being out of season.
* Boats. Boat dealers are often trying to move inventory duringthe winter season, which gives the buyer an upper hand in negotiatingprices. The off-season is also a popular time for boat shows, wheredealers often offer their best prices of the year.
No matter a consumer’s methodology, a little planning goes a longway in finding bargains. There are very helpful websites - such aswww.dealnews.com - that do a great job staying on top of deals bothlarge and small. Online forums and traditional word of mouth can alsoassist in the hunt.
Five unexpected bigticket bargains you can
find at holiday time

The days are flying quickly past, and the holidayseason will be over before you know it. If you hav-en’t completed - or even started - your holiday giftshopping yet, don’t worry; there’s still plenty of time
to get everything accomplished.First, be sure to find an idea for everyone on your list
before you even think about shopping. With your ideaswritten down on a piece of paper, you’ll be efficient inchecking each and every name off your list. If the ideasare causing you the most problems, try an Internet search.Keywords to use can include “gifts for mom” or “musicalgifts for a teenage boy.” And if your list includes peoplewith hobbies, be sure to try an Internet search using thosekeywords as well.Since you’re already at the computer looking for ideas,
you might as well continue using it to make your purchase.There’s a good chance you can find the same item for saleon several different vendor sites. A quick online search willhelp you find the item for the best price, and you mightalso discover you can get the present gift wrapped as well.When comparing prices, be sure to confirm that the vendorcan ship your gift on time, what the cost is for shipping,and whether the company has a return policy.You also can go online to find excellent discounts and
coupons for the items on your list. For example, Ebates.com provides discounts and coupons for vendors, and alsorewards you with cash back on your purchases once you’vefinished your shopping. So not only are you able to find theitem you wish to purchase with a free shipping offer or ata discounted price, but you’ll also receive a percentage ofyour purchase as cash back to be used however you want.Before you finalize your purchase, make certain it will
arrive before the holiday. Online retailers will provide youwith last-minute shipping information so you will knowwhen it’s too late. You’ll also know if you need to pay morefor a faster shipping service. Websites like Ebates oftenhave discounts on expedited shipping. The good news is, ifyou ship the present online while sitting at your computerat home or at the office, you can avoid the long holidaylines at the post office.If you haven’t started your holiday shopping yet, your
secret is safe. With these tips, you can check every nameoff your list with minimal effort and know that every giftwill be delivered in time for Christmas day.

WINFIELD – It was a sun-ny and chilly December daywhen my companion and I de-cided to head to Union HouseAmerican Kitchen in Winfieldfor lunch.
The space was inviting assoon as we stepped inside,where the high, white-paintedwood ceilings and decor feltreminiscent of historic Amer-icana. The lighting fixturesover the tables were styledafter old-fashioned bulbs, andbehind a long, wooden barthat could easily seat 15, was achalkboard with a plethora ofcraft beers and drink specials.
The restaurant is a small-plate gastropub that ourwaiter explained focuses onlocally harvested and seasonalingredients.
Since we were first-timersat the restaurant and newbiesto the small-plate scene, ourwaiter suggested we orderseveral selections to share.
Menu items range fromsalads to seafood and steak,so after much discussion, mycompanion and I selected fourplates to split between us.
I couldn’t resist orderingthe fried pickles as an appe-tizer. Silver-dollar-sized slicesof dill pickle were coated inAmerican Patriot beer batterand then fried. A creamyavocado and buttermilk sauceaccompanied the half-dozenslices for dipping. Not greasy,they were absolutely deli-cious, with the sauce offeringa cool complement.
Crab hush puppies calledout to my seafood-aficionadocompanion. They were madewith dried corn and crabmeatshaped into ping-pong-ball-sized portions and fried. Thefour hush puppies resting on asweet and spicy honey peppersauce were very tasty, and thecrabmeat was fully present,not hidden behind the corn.
A bourbon pork skewerwas next. The tender porkwas glazed in garlic andbrown sugar and had a side ofsriracha cream for dipping.Again, the pairing of the saucewith the entree proved to beperfect.
Our final plate was thechicken-fried chicken. It was,by far, the largest item weordered, and could be consid-ered a full-sized meal. A chick-en breast – flattened, breadedand fried – lay atop mashedpotatoes and was topped witha fried egg and white coun-try gravy. My companiondevoured nearly the entire
plate without speaking, onlysmiling between bites.
While we were a little fryheavy in our order, therewere plenty of selections tosatisfy any appetite, includ-ing the pan-seared scallops,Gulf shrimp brochette, grilledromaine salad, shrimp andgrits, and a grilled portobello,zucchini and squash salad.
The website notes the kitchenuses grass-fed beef and wild-caught seafood.
My companion was a littleworried that small plateswould mean certain hungerafter the meal was finished,but that was not the case.Another visit to Union HouseAmerican Kitchen is certainlyon the horizon.

Bulldogs make early statementBy DAN SANTAROMITA
ELMHURST – RiversideBrookfield has owned theMetro Suburban Conferencein boys basketball, but theleague’s new two-division splitoffers up new opponents andchallenges for the Bulldogs towin a 14th straight conferencetitle.
RB made sure early in theconference schedule to reas-sert its dominance against apair of new league rivals overthe weekend.
The Bulldogs beat IC Cath-olic 69-42 on the road Fridayand followed up with a 94-60win against Aurora CentralCatholic the next night.
Both the Knights andChargers figure to be in thetop half of the league this sea-son.
Sam Johnson had a dou-ble-double in both games with23 points and 13 reboundsagainst the Knights and 28points and 19 rebounds againstACC, but It wasn’t just John-son contributing over theweekend.
With senior guard KevinFitzgerald out and startingpoint guard Daniko Jacksongoing down with an ankle in-jury against IC, a number ofplayers on the team steppedup to help the Bulldogs keeprolling.
“Everyone can play,” John-son said. “I think coming in[before the season] we knewwe were going to be strongand I think we showed it sofar.”
Senior Ryan Hanley cameoff the bench to score 14 pointsat IC and had 10 more againstACC. Sophomore Henry Tre-lenberg scored in double fig-ures in both games duringthe weekend. Jalen Clantonscored 18 points against theChargers in Jackson’s ab-sence.
“We’ve got a strong team,”coach Tom McCloskey said.“Guys on the bench, Paul [Sit-kiewicz] and Ryan have reallycontributed heavily.”
Johnson’s emergence asa scorer and rebounder wascoupled with a strong defen-
sive performance.On Friday, he matched
up with IC standout junior
Rhashaun Epting.Epting is 6-foot-6 with
good athleticism and theability to hit the outside shot.Johnson, a 6-foot-7 forward,stuck with Epting through-out the game and limited himto 13 points and just two inthe first half.
“He’s strong, he’s fast,and he can shoot so it’s hardto guard him,” Johnson said.“Everything was going for
us this game. We were run-ning, we were hitting shots. Ithought we played very good.This was our first road gameso I thought we did good forour first road game.”
The Bulldogs (6-0 overall,2-0 MSC West) have anotherweekend doubleheader begin-ning Friday at Fenton beforea game against neighboringLyons Township at 5 p.m. Sat-urday in La Grange.
