Please rest assured I'll be posting about my recent trip to Istanbul quite soon. But this evening I'm also thinking of Chicago, probably because I've had a lot of friends heading there recently, and of when I was there last fall with my brother. We hung out in the sun in Wicker Park, ate huitlacoche tacos (I was in the midst of a corn smut obsession) and drank margaritas at Big Star Taqueria, watched the Cubs actually win a game at Wrigley Field. Fall in Chicago is hard to beat.
