Good morning from Northside.

The sunrise this morning was beautiful…

Homemade soft serve ice cream.

For Christmas, Genifer’s mom got me this Cuisinart soft serve ice cream maker

And tonight, we finally got to test it out. We mixed up all the ingredients for a simple chocolate ice cream. Only instead of cocoa powder, we used Nestle Quik powder because why not? Hopefully, it’ll be like a glass of frozen chocolate milk…

While it it worked on making the ice cream, we filled up the mix-in containers…

I lost track of how long it took for the liquid ingredients we poured into the ice cream maker to actually become ice cream. It wasn’t the world’s fastest transformation by any stretch. But eventually, we had our very first batch of homemade ice cream…

And it was delicious stuff! So chocolately and good. Now we just need to work on our ice cream serving skills because our curly cones were kind of sad. I can’t wait to keep trying new flavors. This is going to be so awesome come the summer time. I see some soft serve pina coladas in our future. 🙂

Happy birthday, Josh!

Today is my brother’s birthday! Happy birthday, Josh!

We love you and we hope you had a very wonderful special day! 🙂

It’s what’s for dinner.

Genifer made Chicken Fried Rice for dinner tonight…

And it was outstanding! She’s such a good cook! 🙂

Good evening from Northside.

It’s another rainy evening in Northside… ☂

We made a supreme DiGiorno pizza for dinner tonight with cheese stuffed crust…

It’s been a while since I had a DiGiorno pizza. But I don’t remember them being this good! Taken with Instagram. 🍕 🙂

Pause for paws.

Mecca OtR.

After Ciderfest, we walked over to 15th and Walnut Streets to check out a pretty new artsy bar callled Mecca OtR. Mecca is owned by the same people that Cheapside

Mecca has great murals for days. And every restroom has custom artwork…

And I completely forgot to take a photo of Mecca’s incredible outdoor patio…

Mecca has these great, inventive drinks called Chuggers with one of those little airline liquor bottles inverted in a can of San Pellegrino…

Such a great idea…

Great place. I’m glad we finally got to check out Mecca. 🙂

Ciderfest.

This afternoon we hopped on the Metro 17 bus to head down in Over-the-Rhine to visit the Christian Moerlein Malt House Taproom. Christian Moerlein Brewing Company and Over-The-Rhine Cider Company teamed up to put together a hard cider sampling event today called as Ciderfest. And you know, we love our ciders. OtR Cider Company has two hard ciders, Original and Crisp. They collaborated with neighborhood bars and restaurants to create fourteen one-of-a-kind limited release ciders infused with various ingredients to be sampled this afternoon…

Our favorite out of all of the different flavors was the probably the Strappleberry. But there were a lot of really good ones.

After sampling all the infused ciders, we had a Moerlein Helles and a giant Bavarian pretzel with brown mustard and beer cheese…

It was a really fun event at a place we don’t really get to all that often. 🙂
