It was really snowy in downtown Cincinnati this afternoon…
I don’t think I’ve ever seen snowflakes that big. I looked like someone was standing above my window emptying out a gigantic bag of feathers. I could have just sat there all day and just watched it snow.
So here’s your moment of Zen for the day…
But then it was done…
Downtown Cincinnati is always so pretty when it’s snowing. Heck, Downtown Cincinnati is always pretty to me. 🙂

Today, my parents, Genifer and I walked up into Over-the-Rhine for lunch. Along the way, we stopped in to check out Elm & Iron on Vine Street…
And there’s a dang Swiss gondola in the store…
Which could be yours if the Price is Right…
They have such unique stuff at Elm & Iron. I don’t know who can afford most of it. But unique nonetheless. From there we headed over to Taft’s Ale House for lunch…
The Huntsman Stew my dad ordered was really on point…
And so was the chicken sammich Genifer and I shared…
We had another beer at Taft’s Ale House down in the lower level at Nellie’s Tap Room. And then headed over to have a drink at Nation Kitchen and Bar in Pendleton…
There are some really gorgeous building in Over-the-Rhine. These two are on Main Street…
On the way home, we swung through Horseshoe Casino. Mom walked out the casino with more money than she had when she walked. And that always makes for a good day!
We made it home just in time for the start of the Superb Owl because after all, it is…
Mom brought Polish Mistakes, or Hanky Pankies as Genifer like to call them…
And bacon-wrapped water chestnuts…
And I made these pepperoni balls for the big game…
It was a really great and delicious weekend with my parents! We crammed a lot of stuff in to just a couple of days! We can’t wait to see them again when we get married in Jamaica in just a couple weeks! 🙂

This afternoon Genifer and I took my parents over to check out Americano Burger Bar for lunch…
After some delicious burgers, it was time for some shuffleboard…
Apparently, I was the weakest link at shuffleboard. No team I was on won a game. 
After Americano, we walked down to Moerlein Lager House for a beer. On the way down to The Banks, we passed Carol Ann’s Carousel, which rather surprisingly, we still haven’t been to as of yet…
I completely forgot to take a photo of us cheersing at Moerlein Lager House. Later in the evening, we stopped into Bru Burger Bar to share some nachos. And another round of beers…
It was a great and delicious Saturday in downtown Cincinnati with my parents. 🙂

My parents came down from Michigan to visit for the weekend! And they brought down a couple of delicious pizzas from Pizza King that we made for dinner tonight!
YUM! And they brought down an amazing birthday cake from Boonzaijer Bakery with them as well!
Delicious stuff! It’s like having our very our own little Taste of Michigan! YUM! Thanks mom & dad!:)

Today, I got my hair cut at Roosters Men’s Grooming Center at Queen City Square…
It was a nice place. I got a Rooster’s Club Cut with shampoo massage and hot-towel treatment from Ray. The haircut was a little on the pricey side but no more so than getting your haircut at any other place downtown. And she did a really great job with my hair. If you find yourself in need of a trim or a shave, you should check out Rooster’s at Queen City Square. 🙂 Photo of my hair coming soon.

Tonight, we went to our 10th Cyclones hockey game of the season at US Bank Arena. The Cyclones were playing host to the Wheeling Nailers this evening…
And tonight, we actually made it to US Bank Arena in time to hear the national anthem. That rarely happens…
LET’S PLAY HOCKEY!
The Nailers were on the board first…
It started to get pretty chippy out there…
At the end of the first period, the Nailer led 1-0…
The Nailers took at 2-0 led but the Cyclones pulled one back to make it 2-1…
At the start of the third, it was still 2-1…
But the Cyclones couldn’t pull this one out, and the game ended 3-1…
Oh well. Win or lose, Cyclones hockey games are always fun. Hopefully, they can do better when we go the game next Wednesday. 🙂

Good morning from downtown Cincinnati…
It’s supposed to reach a high of 59º today. Not too shabby for the February 3rd…

It was a stormy evening in downtown Cincinnati. We managed to dodge the raindrops just long enough to get in our evening dog walk…
After we got home, it pretty much poured for the rest of the evening. 🙂
