Since Barb's Kolache Bakery, 22354 W. 66th St., opened last week, its employees have spent a lot of time explaining just what a kolache is.

Talking points

Do you think Veterans Day should be a prominent holiday?

Absolutely. We wouldn’t be able to sit here and eat lunch like this if it weren’t for the veterans. We’ve got millions of people that fought and died to save this country; it should be more than a bank holiday.
