Hi there!

I'm Ellen, a 19-year old student at the University of Chicago. I love food and life enthusiastically and equally, drink far too much Diet Coke, take far too many pictures, and get really excited about exercise, cooking and baking, and ice cream. On My Uncommon Everyday, I share these parts of my life - and a whole bunch of other stuff. Welcome!
