We ❤️ Street City Pub.

This afternoon we stopped at the relatively new Street City Pub on Sixth Street…

We thought it would be packed with there being a home Bengals game today but oddly that wasn’t the case at all. We had the entire place to ourselves…

We just wanted to grab a little bite to eat. We shared some peach bourbon BBQ wings…

And these monster Irish potato skins…

They were awesome. And they were on the really cheap because Street City Pub has the rare Sunday happy hour. In fact every day, all is happy hour at Street City Pub in the bar & lounge. You know what else they have? Bread pudding…

I love bread pudding! And theirs was sooo good. We’ll definitely be back very soon to Street City Pub. They have stuff on their menu that I just have to try like their Irish Melt smash burger or their Fretboard battered cod. And I’m going to be needing more of their incredible bread pudding! 😀🇮🇪❤️

#TBT Pause for paws.

Four years ago, Milan seemed like he was feeling better and back to his old self…

Little did we know, he would pass away just a week later in the middle of the night. We miss you so much bud dog. 😥🐾❤️

Metro+Transit.

Cincinnati Metro has moved to the Transit app with EZ Fare…

The Transit app with EZ Fare gives Cincinnati riders a single, seamless way to pay for almost all of our rides. You can now buy and store passes for Metro, NKY’s Tank, Butler County RTA and the ~~streetcar~~ CB Connector all in one place. Unfortunately, it doesn’t offer a way to pay for the $30 Regional Stored-Value Cards that I like to use. I’ll still have to purchase those at one of the streetcar stations. But it’s still nice to have a couple of Metro passes and CB Connector passes stored in the transit app just in case of emergency. It’s pretty cool really.

Speaking of pretty cool, look at how tall the building is getting across the street from where I used to work…

And I accidentally snapped this photo on the bus, but I kinda like it…

I like riding the bus. 😀🚌🚧❤️

FC|C Warehouse sale.

And while they were queueing up for sneakers over on Fourth Street, I was queueing up inside the Westin Hotel for the annual FC Cincinnati warehouse sale…

Everything was pretty much half-off the original price…

I got us a whole bunch of new FC Cincinnati gear. I got Genifer the t-shirt and two tanks in the photo above. And I got an away jersey, t-shirt, long-sleeved shirt, and a hoodie. With that, I’m good on FC|C gear for a very, very long time to come. 😀⚽️❤️

More Fiery Hen.

After work tonight, we stopped back at Fiery Hen on Court Street…

Genifer ordered their burger of the day…

And of course, I had Fiery Hen’s chicken tenders. Again.

This time we got to try Fiery Hen’s banana pudding…

Genifer said her burger was just okay. My chicken tenders were awesome. Again. And the banana pudding was terrific. Banana pudding is sooo good. 😀🍔🍟🐔🍌❤️

Oh, what a night!

After work this evening, I met Genifer at Mabley Garage on Race Street…

And we walked over to one of our favorite places from when we used to live downtown, Horse & Barrel on Walnut Street…

And then we walked over to another of our old favorite places, Igby’s…

And Tuesdays are $1 oysters and $3 oyster shooters at Igby’s…

After trying some oysters, we walked around the corner to Aronoff Center…

We were about to see JERSEY BOYS! And we were sooo excited…

It was the first time Jersey Boys returned to Cincinnati since we saw it back in 2012…

And it was every bit as incredible as we remembered it. The best part is… we get to see the show for a second time on Sunday afternoon! 😀🎶❤️

Hello Fourth Street.

I was looking north out the windows at work admiring downtown Cincinnati and something caught my eye on the next street over there on Fourth Street…

I’m not exactly sure what’s going on over there. But it’s making me smile. 😀🙂🙃🤣❤️

Finishing touches.

Downtown Cincinnati is almost ready for Blink Cincinnati 2019 this weekend…

Downtown is going to be stupid nuts this weekend. We’re going to just watch the Blink festivities on the Instagrams. 😀👁️❤️

I just love this view.

I just love this view looking out the west side of the Grey Midwest offices. You get to watch all the traffic on the highway, sometimes there are trains on beyond the highway, you can see the bend in the Ohio River and there are the rolling hills. I just think it’s really pretty, there’s always lots going on and it’s always different. It’s just a really interesting view. 😀🏙️❤️
