It was really cold this morning…
Good morning from Noerhside…
When we came back from our walk, I noticed my Bombas were on the wrong feet..
The breakfast of champions: Strawberry Toaster Strudels and hot chocolate…
And SURPRISE! It was still snowy this evening…
Good evening from Northside…
We had Sloppy Joseph’s for dinner tonight…
We played in the backyard for a bit…
And then it was back to work while we watched more of Wanted on Netflix.
😀🌄🌨️❄️🛷❤️

We woke up this morning to a winter wonderland…
There were perfect sledding conditions on the hill at the end of our street. But I had so much work to do that I didn’t have time to partake. The next time it snows we’re finally going to sled the hill. All afternoon, we could hear kids screaming as they were sliding down the hill. When we went our walk this evening, we could see that the hill had got a lot of love today…
Someone lost their mitten gloves…
Good evening from Northside…
I can’t wait for the next time we get a good snow so we can finally go sledding.
😀🌄🌨️❄️🛷❤️

It was an overcast start to another work week…
The sun started to make a brief appearance this morning before getting enveloped by the clouds…
The sky looked really pretty. Good morning from Northside…
This evening it was just overcast and grey…
Good evening from Northside…
We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals. We had the Asian Sesame Pulled Pork with broccoli and jasmine rice again…
It was so good again. The Asian glaze on the pulled pork was just amazing. At the grocery, we got a delicious little carrot cake to share for desserts this week…
It was the start of what’s going to be a crazy busy work week for me. I have two projects that both have deadlines on Friday morning. But I’ll get it all get sorted. Somehow.
While I was working on my stuff, we started watching Wanted on Netflix. It‘s wildly improbable and a bit ridiculous but very entertaining. 😀🌄☁️🥡🥕😰📺❤️

Happy Superb Owl Sunday!
We were up super early this morning, even before the sunrise…
Good morning from Northside…
And we were off to run over the the grocery…
We always go to the grocery early, but we wanted to get over extra early this morning. We thought it might start to get a bit nutty with people stocking up on supplies for The Big Game™…
It looked like Ice Bear was rescued from the claw machine…
He used to be right where the zebra is now. I hope he went to a good home…
Both the panda and the train were out of stick in the International Aisle…
And there were still a few balloons left but no owl balloons…
Just lots and lots of hearts…
As is tradition, we stopped for coffee after the grocery…
Here’s another photo of Genifer’s new desk. She moved it over in front of the window…
It looks really nice in there.
And good evening from Northside…
I was cheering for Tom Brady in The Big Game™…
And there you go. We had a whole bunch of chip and dippers while we watched the game. It was a pretty great Superb Bowl Sunday. 😀🌄☕️🦉🏈📺❤️

Happy Saturday! Good morning from Northside…
We ordered Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch this afternoon…
I had a free snack-sized wings for my birthday through their app. We picked up our BDubs out in West Chester and took it over to have lunch with Geri…
BDubs is such good stuff! We don’t have it often enough. And it was great to get to hang out with Geri for the afternoon.
Good evening from Northside…
Later, we ate our BDubs chocolate fudge cake…
Ohmigosh. That cake was really good. It was sooo fudgy. I think I’m going to be good on chocolate cake for a while. We watched The Dig on Netflix tonight. I thought the movie was so good. Genifer thought it was just okay. But we could both agree that we had a pretty good Saturday. 😀🌄🐔🥮📺❤️

The sunrise was very pretty this morning…
Maybe it was super pretty but it’s the first sunrise we’ve had in a minute in the sea of infinite grey that has been the sky lately…
And even as I was looking at the sunrise, the grey sky was starting to take over…
When we went out on our morning walk, there was no sign of the sun…
Good morning from Northside…
And this evening it was sprinkling. So yeah, good evening from Northside…
For dinner tonight, we ordered Danny Boy Burgers through DoorDash. Danny Boy is the new burger place on the University of Cincinnati’s campus. Apparently, Danny Boy started last year as a virtual kitchen inside of Keystone Bar & Grill, They specialize in hamburgers, Impossible burgers, and crispy golden fries. And their burgers are only available for delivery from DoorDash and carryout…
We were so excited when we were ordering, look at how good that burger looks…
And here’s my Danny Boy Burger and fries…
It was a little shocking when we unwrapped our everything. They were really small burgers. In the photo on DoorDash, they looked so big. But after looking at the photo again, what was shown was pretty accurate. But in the screengrab above if you look at the size of the pickles in comparison to the size of the burger, those are either huge pickles or little burgers. And I think we know which one it was. Still, the burgers were delicious and surprisingly filling. Their fries were outstanding. And so were their shakes. Overall it was good but I don’t know if I would order Danny Boy again. After we were finished eating, we watched Crypto on Hulu. It was okay. We decided that movies about hackers and crypto-currency don’t make for the best plotlines.
Overall, today was a bit disappointing all the way around. But we made it through another day. 😀🌄☁️🍔🍟📺❤️

Good morning from Northside…
And tonight, we had the super rare Wednesday NYPD Pizza party…
Ohmigosh. NYPD Pizza is so good. Good evening from Northside…
And good evening from our backyard…
And then it time to play with Oscar and his hedgehog…
Tonight, we started watching Fate: The Winx Saga. It’s pretty okay. But our day was pretty great. Thanks to our Wednesday NYPD Pizza party. 😀🌄🍕🐾❤️

We work up this morning to more snow…
When we up atop the hill at the end of our street, a pretty big group of geese in their flying V formation flew by in front of us…
And then it was followed by two more Vs, all heading in the same direction…
Interestingly… A group of geese on land is called a gaggle. When they’re in flight, it becomes a skein, team or wedge of geese.
Also, scientists have determined that the V-shaped formation that geese use when migrating serves two important purposes: First, it conserves their energy. Each bird flies slightly above the bird in front of him, resulting in a reduction of wind resistance. The birds take turns being in the front, falling back when they get tired. This lets the geese fly for a long time before they have to stop for rest. The second benefit to the V formation is that it’s easy to keep track of every bird in the group, and may assist with the communication and coordination within the group. Ahhh.. the internet.
Anyway, it was a lot of geese. Good morning from Northside…
Hello moon…
And by this evening, most of our snow had melted again…
Good evening from Northside…
We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals. This one was Asian Sesame Pulled Pork with broccoli and jasmine rice…
Broccoli is probably my favorite vegetable. The pulled pork had an amazing Asian glaze and the rice was really good too.
And Genifer made almond flour cupcakes with strawberry frosting…
Cupcakes are always terrific. Good evening from our backyard…
Tonight, we watched In Darkness on Netflix. It was pretty good. 😀🌄❄️🐾🥡📺❤️

It was all snowy again this morning…
Good morning from Northside…
And tonight, it was actually still snowy…
Good evening from Northside…
We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals. This one was BBQ Cheddar Meatballs with bacon potatoes…
It was another really delicious meal. The meatballs were terrific and the bacon potatoes were really good. But honestly, it felt like something like that could just as easily been made from scratch. And that’s a good thing because maybe we could make this one again. It was really good. We like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot.
And then we went upstairs to try to find a movie to watch…
We watched The Rhythm Section on Amazon Prime. It was not terrible. But our day was pretty good, especially for a Monday. 😀❄️🍽️🐾📺❤️
