We received a very nice Christmas package from my parents…
We got a festive tin full of wonderful Christmas cookies…
There were a lot of favorites in there. They also sent a bunch of delicious Trader Joe’s Keuring coffee pods and a proper cinnamon roll baking pan…
Thanks, mom & dad! 😀🎄🍪❤️

There is an Instagram account called @icetagram_official that is quite simply just photos of ice machines in their native environments. This is my little nod to them…
This ice machine is outside of the hardware store downtown. Taken with Instagram.

This afternoon we walked over to Django Western Taco for brunch…
Genifer ordered one of Django’s amazing Jerk Chicken Quesadillas. We shared some tater tot casserole, chips and salsa and I ordered this amazing dish…
Barbacoa Benedict on a house made jalapeño English muffin, poached eggs, spinach, salsa verde and queso fresco. And it was awesome! But we ordered way too much food. Again. We should have just shared the Barbacoa Benedict. It was such an incredible meal for brunch. 😀🌮❤️

After dinner at Bistro Grace, we stopped at Higher Gravity for a flight…
We love Higher Gravity. They always have something interesting on tap. 😀🍺❤️

Tonight, we walked back down to Bistro Grace to finish off the rest of the gift card my sister gave us last Christmas. Our dinner last week was terrific and delicious…
We shared some more of Bistro Grace’s delicious deviled eggs…
Tonight, we also tried Bistro Grace’s smoky beer cheese with Servatii pretzel bread…
And we decided to share the Grace Burger…
We had the Grace Burger back after Cincinnati Burger Week and it was delicious and amazing and huge…
It was just every bit as terrific as we remembered it. The Grace Burger should be right there near the top of the list of Cincinnati’s best burgers. Incredible burger. I could eat a Grace Burger each and every week. It’s that good. We can’t wait to come back to Bistro Grace. They have some pretty incredible dishes. 😀🥚🧀🍔❤️

Today was our annual White Elephant Holiday party potluck at Deskey…
There was a really nice spread for the Deskey holiday potluck…
After lunch, it was time for the Deskey White Elephant holiday gift exchange…
I drew lucky number one…
I would get to open the first gift and make the very last trade to end the game. The first gift I opened was the card game, Exploding Kittens…
We played Exploding Kittens at The Rook in OtR and thought it was really a lot of fun. But I didn’t get to hold onto it for very long. It was taken from me and in its place, I ended up with this really sweet painting…
And then I lost that and ended up with a Pixel & Timber t-shirt, a bottle of Tito’s vodka dressed in an adorable little Tito’s sweater and this little vintage bucket…
Then I was severely downgraded to a box containing three rolls of toilet paper, a “That’s How I Roll” unicycle t-shirt and matching unicycle pint glass…
Since I had the first choice I got to end the game and swap my box of toilet paper with any gift that had been opened. And I choose to reclaim my Exploding Kittens…
It was a really fun White Elephant holiday gift exchange party. 😀🎄🎁🐱🐼🍸🚽🐱❤️

For dinner tonight, Genifer made another of the terrific Kroger Prep+Pared meals. This one was Mushroom Stroganoff over cauliflower hash cakes…
It was another delicious meal! The cauliflower was really difficult to form into little cakes so we just had the mushroom stroganoff over a mound of cauliflower. And it was so good. We’ve been really impressed with all the Prep+Pared meals Every one of the meals we’ve tried have been very delicious! I would be very hard pressed to pick any of the meals to call my favorite. They’re all so good. 😀❤️
