Downtown details.

I had to run a couple of errands around downtown Cincinnati this afternoon. I walked by one of my favorite buildings in all of downtown Cincinnati, Lyric Piano Building on Race Street. I’d love to hang out on that fourth-floor balcony…

I’d also love to hang out in this bay window a little bit further down Race Street…

Walking back to work, I cut down College Street on the backside of Race Street. There are some wonderful ghost signs from businesses past…

And speaking of bay windows…

Downtown Cincinnati is beautiful. 😀🏙️❤️

It’s what’s for dinner.

Genifer made another of the great Kroger Prep+Pared meal kits for dinner tonight…

Except it wasn’t Kroger Prep+Pared. It was Home Chef Express. I wonder if Kroger has replaced their Prep+Pared meals with Home Chef Express or if it was just a rebrand or a competitive product or what. At any rate, it looked really good in the photo…

It was different than the beef stroganoff Genifer has made before with ground beef. But both were really good. I’m not sure which one I like better. I think I just really like beef stroganoff because it goes well with garlic bread. And I really love garlic bread! 😀🐄❤️

Thanks, Timehop!

These photos popped up when I was looking at my Timehop this morning. They are from when we went to the Beer Baron’s Ball a few years back…

Genifer is sooo pretty. 😀😍🦕❤️

Goodnight moon.

A full moon in October is known as the Hunter’s Moon. And tomorrow night there was supposed to be a 100% full October Hunter’s Moon. Fun facts from Space.com

The moon shows its full face to Earth once a month. Well, sort of.

In fact, the same side of the moon always faces the planet, but part of it is in shadow. And, in reality most of the time the “full moon” is never perfectly full. Only when the moon, Earth and the sun are perfectly aligned is the moon 100 percent full, and that alignment produces a lunar eclipse. And sometimes — once in a blue moon — the moon is full twice in a month (or four times in a season, depending on which definition you prefer). [The Moon: 10 Surprising Facts]

I was really excited about tomorrow’s night 100% full moon. I get excited about silly things like that. When we were walking the dogs this evening, the moon was just starting to rise above the horizon…

It’s hard to get steady photos when the dog you’re walking is pulling you along…

These are the only photos I took of the Hunter’s Moon. I meant to take more but I ended up falling asleep pretty early. I wasn’t too upset because tonight the moon was 99% full. Tomorrow night will be the 100% full Hunter’s Moon. 😀🌕❤️

UPDATE: It was so overcast on Wednesday that we couldn’t even see the 100% full Hunter’s Moon. And that’s a bummer.

 

 

It’s what’s for dinner.

When Genifer picked me up from work this evening, we walked down to Fusian on Sixth Street to pick up some sushi to bring home for dinner tonight…

We shared three rolls starting with the left coast roll

And a taka tuna roll

And a soho salmon roll

And we managed to finish it all! Fusian’s sushi is delicious! 😀🍣❤️

The breakfast of champions.

I’m back on a cereal kick at work because cereal is the breakfast of champions…

Probably not this cereal. I think the breakfast of champions is actually Wheaties or something. But I was eating Apple Jacks this morning because I happen to really like Apple Jacks. It’s one of my favorite cereals. 😀🥣❤️

Constructing Cincinnati.

The building across Eighth Street from work is in the process of being demolished. With the exception of a Donato’s pizzeria on the ground floor, the building has been vacant for as long as I can remember. When Donato’s left a few months back, you kind of knew the building was going to be coming down. Last week, they started knocking all the windows out on the ground floor. This morning on our way into work the building was covered top to bottom with this blue mesh…

And here’s the view I have from my window at work…

And the view from the parking lot across Eighth Street…

One of the tenants in the Deskey building is a company called Streamspot. They do high-quality live streaming broadcasts. They set up a live stream of the demolition across the street. It’ll be interesting to watch this building come down. The building was kind of an eyesore and I don’t think it’ll be missed one bit. In its place, I think I heard they are planning to build condos that no normal person could ever afford.
But at least it’ll probably look nicer. 😀🚧❤️

Good morning from Northside.

The beautiful mornings continue. Good morning from Northside. 😀🌄❤️

Urban Artifact & Wildfire Pizza.

Oscar was watching us leave from our front window this afternoon…

“Hey, hey. Where are you going?” Sorry, buddy. We were heading out to walk over to have a beer at one of our favorite spots, Urban Artifact

And we wanted to finally check out their new wood-fired pizza kitchen located just across the courtyard called Wildfire Pizza Kitchen

We’ve been drooling over their photos on Instagram for a while now. We were really excited to try it. We each ordered a personal-sized pizza and cheese bread…

Cheese bread…

My Dad’s Favorite meat-za…

And Genifer’s Super Hawaiian…

Their pizza is outstanding! We’re always happy to have another great pizza place in the neighborhood. Northside is quickly becoming the best pizza neighborhood in Cincinnati. And we love it! 😀🍺🍕❤️

Happy Sweetest Day!

Happy Sweetest Day! 😀🌼🌺❤️
