Hi there,
Macro Mondays is a weekly challenge theme group. This week's theme was "Damage," meaning things that are broken, flawed, non-functional etc.
This is a broken piece of a Butterfinger candy bar. By the way, I've heard that there are no calories in broken candy bars or cookies. I don't know if that is really true, but I'd like to think so! )0: HMM!
Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving a comment. I love hearing from you!
Have a wonderful day!

UP 815 lifts what would be one of the final empty boxcars from the Chicago Tribune printing plant adjacent to the former Grand Avenue yard in downtown Chicago. The Tribune closed its doors a few weeks after this was taken in favor of printing outside of the city, together with the Daily Herald and Sun-Times under the umbrella of Paddock Publications in Schaumburg, IL. At the same time, Blommer Chocolate also permanently closed its plant here in downtown Chicago, receiving its last tank car shortly after this was taken to send out the plant's remaining cocoa butter to the company's other plant in East Greenville, Pa. Thus, in a matter of weeks, all rail service into the heart of Chicago came to an end as the last two remaining customers shuttered their plants almost simultaneously.
Blommer and the Tribune had been the last customers on the former C&NW line to Grand Avenue yard, now only a run around track, for the last 23 years. Up until 2001, the Navy Pier line emerged here, continuing further east into downtown in the streets and underneath high-rises to serve the Sun-Times, and up until the very early 1980s, to serve Navy Pier and the Tribune Tower - which relocated into the plant pictured at that time. In the decades prior, the line served many more industries in downtown, including notably the Curtiss Candy Company, famous for their Baby Ruth and Butterfinger candy bars, which moved out of the city in 1970.
In this scene, the C&NW caboose was brought along as a shoving platform to reach Alpha Baking and to spot the hopper loaded with flour on the left later in the afternoon. Located northwest of downtown, Alpha is now the last customer traditionally handled by this job. In the background to the right, part of the former Montgomery Ward building can be seen across the river, on whose doorstep the Milwaukee Road once ran down the street on the Kingsbury branch to reach a variety of industrial customers, Wallace Press being the last of which to see service this far South of that branch up until 1990. Goose Island is immediately behind (north of) the Tribune plant, where the Milwaukee Road and later Chicago Terminal served customers like AKZO Salt and Big Bay Lumber as late as 2015. The UP used to interchange cars to the Chicago Terminal from North Avenue yard just up the line, where Morton Salt also still received cars until the end of 2015.
Now everything has come to a close - the Chicago Tribune plant here has since been almost entirely demolished, and the iconic 1939-built Blommer Chocolate factory building is sitting idle and awaiting an uncertain fate. All the rails here haven't seen movement in months with all customers now gone, and will likely be removed as this area gets turned into an entertainment spot - the site of the Chicago Tribune is getting turned into a casino...

Crazy Tuesday theme today is chocolate.
This is where I stash my Nikon camera batteries & charger. The chocolates are made of polymer clay. (so I can't eat them!! lol..) And a cute mouse to watch over them. Keep your paws off! :-) HCT!! :-)
Not a Butterfinger but for JJ his tennis ball is just as precious (maybe even more!) Here he is quite literally running over Roxy to get to it, make the catch and prevent her from stealing it!
He is very obsessed with his tennis balls!

Oddity found at the Grocery Outlet- Butterfinger BUZZ- a huge, king sized bar with "as much caffeine as the leading energy drink". What could go wrong here?

Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory is famous for its amazing selection of old fashioned caramel apples. They all start with a crisp, green Granny Smith apple smothered with thick and chewy hand made caramel, then dipped in a variety of yummy toppings for a "just right" combination of tart and sweet.

I'm not big on caramel apples..but I usually will eat anything that has the words butterfingers in front of it.

welches Kleid trage ich heute...??
"Butterfinger"kannte ich gar nicht, würde ich aber lieber essen als "Campbell's Soup". Ich als Filmfan sollte vielleicht das Kleid mit den Gesichtern tragen. Ich würde sagen, dass ich Paul Newman,James Garner, Liz Taylor, Richard Burton und Shirley MacLaine erkenne. Hat jemand noch eine Idee wer da draufzu sehen ist?

which dress shall I wear today ... ??
I did not know "Butterfinger", but I would rather eat chocolate than "Campbell's Soup". As a film fan, I should probably wear the dress with the faces. I would say that I recognize Paul Newman, James Garner, Liz Taylor, Richard Burton and Shirley MacLaine. Does anyone have an idea who else is on it?

Yes, I love Butterfingers! Won't be many left soon! Nor will there be trick-or-treaters down here. Too dark and spooky! :)

Hello :) for my Mon Tissu blogger entry I thought I should show what is the type of blogger I am..so the best way in my opinion is to write, in the required paragraph, what I effectivly write in every post I make..I hope you will enjoy.
2ND OUTFIT: PARISIENNE
For this outfit I've taken inspiration from Mayfair sim, which reminds me French feelings. So I've tried to imagine myself as a parisian girl, in a summer day, going to meet some friends. For this look I've decided to use pale pink color variations paired with black details and some funny accessory whose names remind this "Parisienne" athmosphere.
This lovely dress is from Mon Tissu (comes in 10 versions and sizes from XXS to L), aswell as the shoes (available in 8 colors), the "Moi" necklace and the extravagant French Pouf brooch (comes in 13 options) which I used as an headpiece.
To complete the look I've used this 50's shaped sunglasses from Tres Blah and one of the hairstyles I love the most from Lamb, called Mono.

50L Friday again this week. I decided to put a fun pink colored dip dye out as a special thang.. along with my Butterfinger color. I call this new color Milkshake.. because it's all I can think about right now. Alright, I hope ya'all enjoy and you have an awesome weekend! Go to Lula to pick up demos!
dooze is dressed up this halloween as a 1970's "heavy." the costume fits his personality perfectly. here you can see his retaliation the last time I went for his stash.
This butterfly was walking along the side of the pool. Robby picked it up and it sat on his finger till if felt better and then flew away.

113 Pictures in 2013...#74 Something New.....Introducing the newest member of the family, Butterfinger Elvis...born in Oct....a lab/retriever mix...very feisty and funny...he'd just tired himself out after chewing my slippers, unraveling yarn, eating paper and generally exploring the territory.
Keeping It Cool is the topic for Macro Mondays, so I stuck my macro lens into a box of Butterfinger ice cream, one that's been sitting in the freezer for quite some time, and came up with this icy scene.
"Everybody loves Butterfinger".

This is a public service Flickr post to let you know that Butterfingers were invented by Otto Schnering. Just in case you wind up on Jeopardy! and that is the Final Jeopardy answer.
