Free: 5 lb frozen pkg of blue cheese (Big Timber & Randall Rd, Elgin) someone gave me a frozen 5 lb pkg of blue cheese. I love cheese thot I would use it in some recipes, but I always seem to go with the others that I already have open, so I decided to forward the blue cheese on to someone else. Instead of keeping it in the freezer; it would take me a very long time to go thru that bag. So if you are interested PLEASE let me know when you are ready to come for it so I can be here & not have to put it outside. I will take it out of freezer when you come. Thank you

Free: Two Couches (Aurora, closer to Naperville) Worn but still comfortable, will come with freshly washed couch covers. The couch’s pleather has a tendency to shed, so the covers are highly recommended. The smaller, two seater couch is 56 inches in length and 46 inches in height. The larger, three seater is 80 inches in length, and 46 inches in height. You must take both, and you must pick them up. 2 out of 4 of the handles to recline have broken off. With some muscle you can get the two broken handle recliners to recline.

Free: Whole buncha squash (Parker Ave at Pearl, Aurora) ATTENTION COOKS: Here is a good-sized gathering of homegrown squash of various breeds. My husband the gardener informs me that most of them are sweeter kinds, rather than overly savory. Oh, and he doesn't use pesticides, so even though they aren't "licensed" as organic, they pretty much are. Everything you see here is available--you can have the bin too--plus there is one very large tromboncino squash that I couldn't fit into the picture. We have way more than we're going to use! Bon appetit.

Free: Noritake oak leaf bowl 8.5" X 3" (Dubuque) Same size and design (oak leaves on black background) as one in yellow color online. This one has rose-colored oak leaves on black background and pearlized interior. Noritake stamp on bottom seems right. No chips or cracks, but tiny bits of black paint on exterior missing. Seems more for decor than food. I've enjoyed it on display as is for years.
