Sunday Funday.

With the time change and the early morning North London Derby, we were up and moving surprisingly early this morning. After walking Oscar, we walked down Hamilton Avenue to The Littlefield for brunch…

Genifer had their Greek Omelet…

And I had the brunch special of the day, lamb and duck sausage with sweet potato biscuits, roasted mushrooms and over-easy egg…

It was such a delicious brunch. One of the best we’ve had in a minute. Afterwards, we checked on the progress of The Littlefield’s new bar next door called Second Place…

It looked like they were making progress. I can’t wait to check it out when it finally opens. It also looked like there’s something new going into to the old Tacocracy space on Hamilton Avenue but it was kinda hard to tell what they were doing…

We walked over Urban Artifact for a beer for a Milkman Maple Breakfast Stout…

We found Waldo…

And we finally got to check out the upstairs event space at Urban Artifact…

It was another great Sunday Funday in Northside. 🙂

Bistro Grace.

We night walked down Hamilton Avenue to have dinner at Bistro Grace. We’ve been wanting to eat dinner at Bistro Grace after enjoying their burgers as part of Cincinnati Burger Week…

Genifer had their Grace burger, which was outstanding… And huge…

And I ordered the one of the specials which was shrimp and four cheese grits with beets and brussel sprouts…

And it was out of this world. I could eat that dish everyday and twice on Sunday. It was one of the best dishes I’ve had in a quick minute. Outstanding stuff. And Genifer said her burger was pretty out of this world too. We can’t wait to come back to Bistro Grace. 🙂

ps. There were also some really amazing architectural paintings on the walls of some various landmarks around Cincinnati by artist Mike Maydak. I particularly liked the one of Hamilton Avenue and the one of downtown Cincinnati. Good stuff.

The last sunrise.

This was likely the last sunrise we’ll see before the time change this weekend…

Not a big fan of the time change. At all.

Good morning, November.

It’s hard to believe that we’re waking up this morning, and it’s already November…

And it’s the last week of watching beautiful sunrises from our bedroom window while we’re getting ready for work. Next weekend’s time change is going to take our sunrises away from us for a while.

44,000.

This afternoon our 2008 VW Jetta GLI rolled over 44,000 miles…

Not too bad for a 2008. 🙂

Hello from Northside.

This morning we had a beautiful sunrise that we watched from our third-floor bedroom window, and we watched an equally as pretty sunset this evening in our backyard…

And just a HELLO! from our little family in Northside…

🙂

Ruth’s Parkside Cafe.

Tonight, we walked down Hamilton Avenue to Ruth’s Parkside Cafe. We’ve been wanting to eat at Ruth’s for a little bit. And celebrating our eight month wedding anniversary seemed like a pretty good excuse to finally check it out…

We started with these amazing Grilled Corn Risotto Cakes…

Genifer ordered Ruth’s House-Made Veggie Burger with pickled vegetables. We also ordered the grilled potatoes with cheddar cheese to share…

And I ordered Ruth’s Burger with good old American Cheese with chips…

Everything was delicious! We can’t wait to come back and try some of the other delicious sounding items on the menu at Ruth’s Parkside Cafe…

On the walk home, we double checked to make sure we were following Ruth’s Parkside Cafe on Twitter so could get all the notifications about their daily lunch and dinner specials. What a wonderful way to celebrate our eight month anniversary. 🙂

500.

Just recently, we surpassed the 500 post milestone here at T+G! It’s not too shabby of an accomplishment considering we’ve only been posting to T+G for almost a year.
