Rainy Afternoon

So it was supposed to rain this afternoon. Supposed to rain =/= actually raining. That said I canceled my plans for the going out with friends and instead am stuck alone at home. Not the worst outcome one could have to be honest.

Still, I miss summer.

Beat the Heat Windy City Style

I found this list on the Chicago site titled “Chicago has cool cone offerings to help beat the heat”. And it really is a great list if you plan on being in the city over the Summer months.

It was particularly pleasing to see that they had included Jeni’s Ice Creams. Being a buckeye at heart I tend to visit Jeni’s more than any of the others. Though I had hit up pretty much everything on the list. I love ice cream, alright?

If you plan to make a stop there here is what you need to know:

Jeni’s Ice Creams 3404 N. Southport Ave. | 1505 N. Milwaukee Ave.

The Ohio-based ice cream chain came to the Windy City in recent years, and now has locations in Lakeview and Wicker Park. From sweet cream biscuits and peach jam to pink grapefruit buttermilk frozen yogurt, the chain boasts of using produce grown near its kitchens by long-time farm partners.

P.S. The tags were supposed to read: Yummy, Ice Cream, Hot spots. But it seems like it reorganizes them alphabetically. :/
