CommentPublic Chicago
I’ve always loved visiting Chicago. The Art Institute of Chicago is my favorite U.S. museum, largely thanks to their extensive and impressive collection of German Expressionism and other post-Impressionist gems.

My name is Angela Eloise and I am a freelance writer. That sounds as if I am copping to an addiction. I am.

Cloud of Chaos was born from my desire to dance with the absurdity of life, to create a space where I could write and share all of the gorgeous, fun, snarky deliciousness I find spinning around me every day. What does a spinning cloud of chaos have to do with writing? Everything, as it turns out.
