A liquidation auction for the remaining inventory in Crest Lighting's former Lisle store is scheduled for May, according to a rep for the lighting company.

After briefly operating in Lemont, this Lisle family found the perfect storefront for their natural pet food store on a drive through town.

One reason, he said, is that holistic options tend to eliminate grain products, and attempt to replace those calories with other ingredients from the food pyramid, like vegetables. Thornton said they may be suited for pets who need overall health improvement, suffer from certain allergies, or other digestive issues. While brands aren’t necessarily formulated toward specific breeds, they are tailored to varying activity levels. Thornton swears by holistic methods for his own brood of dogs, cats, birds, and bearded dragon (his family also occasionally fosters rescued …

Chicago Reader recently compiled a handy list of restaurants throughout the suburbs they believe Chicago residents would consider worthy of the commute. Fabulous Noodles, 4663 Old Tavern Rd., was one of 36 restaurants recognized.
