So the day I made this, I was all set to bust out the apples, the cinnamon, the nutmeg, the streusel topping. I was so excited for my first Fall baking extravaganza. I mean, pumpkin is basically my favorite thing in the world. Fall is totally my happy baking place.

I’m sorry, guys. I promise streusel-topped butter-laden apple-y pumpkin-y things are coming soon, but just not today. Besides, it’s the official last day of summer!

And I know a lot of you feel the same way. But that doesn’t mean we should be denied the incredibleness that is homemade ice cream in the summertime, right?! This is an issue I feel strongly impassioned about. Homemade ice cream for the people!

foodie favorites - august 13, 2014 // my bacon-wrapped lifeBaking up a batch of the best chocolate chip cookies in the world 

Hello everyone – hope you’re having an awesome week! We had so much fun with my parents and little brother last weekend. We managed to tour Northwestern, see an outdoor concert, ride bikes along Lake Michigan, spend an afternoon at the Art Institute, and eat our faces off all weekend, so I’d say it was an insanely successful Chicago visit! Here are my foodie favorites for this week.
