Thanks!

To Gapers Block, Chicagoist, Time Out, the Reader, and MenuPages for the good words.

One small point of clarification to Chuck’s Chicagoist item (probably the result of an indeterminate comma on my part):

Irv and Shelly are ponying up the big box of veggies each week, but the smaller swag — honey, hot sauce, soap, etc. — comes from various small city producers and is being wrangled by Ben Helphand at NeighborSpace. Thanks again to both groups for backing our bingo dreams.

Also, credit is totally due to my friend John Roeser for coming up with the bingo idea in the first place. Thanks JR.
