Windy City Live - And Cold, Part 2: Making Up Is Hard To Do
...Continued from yesterday:
 | Windy City Live is a popular Chicago daytime talk show broadcast on ABC and filmed Monday through Friday in front of a live audience. |
| Hosts Ryan Chiaverini and Val Warner interview guests, celebrities such as Kevin Hart, Martha Stewart, Valerie Jarrett, Jimmie Kimmel, Rosie O'Donnell, |  |
 | ...and Michelle Obama, |
...among others, or people of interest such as they found my daughter Claire to be for her disaster relief work as a nurse among the most vulnerable populations on the planet.
Claire's Windy City Live interview was on Thursday, January 24 and, as she was told she could bring her mom along, I came with her.
Claire had been directed to arrive at the studio with her make-up done.
Except that she doesn't wear, or own, any make-up.
Therefore she decided for the occasion to have her make-up done before the show. For this purpose she made a 10 am appointment at an Ulta Beauty salon in Wicker Park, a couple of train stops away from her Logan square neighborhood.
At 9:30 am on the morning of the show Claire and I, duly layered, booted, and bundled up, set out in the 14-degree weather,

| ...to walk to the train station and join the rest of the layered, booted, and bundled up Chicago commuters on their way to their morning destinations. |  |
 | When we reached ours, the Division train stop, we walked a few more blocks, |
| ...to the Ulta Beauty shop, |  |
...where Claire was led back to the make-up salon,
 | ...and introduced to A.J., her very nice make-up artist. |
Claire's make-up job took about 45 minutes and, for a make-up illiterati such as myself - I haven't worn the stuff in forty years - it was rather mesmerizing to watch.
 | Ta-da! |
Claire needed to be at the TV studio by noon so, her make-up done, we re--bundled up and headed back out into the cold, windy city to catch a train downtown,
| ...to the theater district, |  |
 | ...and the ABC studio. |
