One year ago today, I received this drawling from my nephew entitled, “Octopod for Shellington & Captain Barnacles” and it’s still one of my very favorites…


Edgerton’s early works. Thanks, Timehop! 😀🦕❤️

When we left OtR earlier this evening, it was raining. By the time we got home and took the dogs on a walk, it had started sleeting and the wind was howling. It really hurt to get pelted by all the little ice pellets. By the time we were heading off to bed, the snow had started to accumulate…






And I took this video with my Instagram of the snow blowing…





I’m really ready for winter to be over already. 😀❄️🌨️❤️

This afternoon I got my haircut with Katie Walters. She is literally the best…

Then since we were already over on the east side, we got to have lunch at Taglio again…


Genifer ordered the Finta…

We started with a side garden salad…

And there it is…

The main event…

Taglio’s deep-dish Detroit-style pizza. This time we ordered the Deluxe…

I love, love, love Taglio’s pizza. And we’re so excited. I don’t know if you’ve heard but Taglio is set to open a second location this spring on 12th Street in Over-the-Rhine. So sometime soonish, we’ll be able to stop and get pizza whenever our hearts desire. After Taglio on our way back home, we stopped at Genifer’s favorite bar in the whole world, Sundry and Vice for a drink…




Sundry and Vice makes the best drinks…







It was another really super Saturday. 😀✂️🍕🥃❤️

This morning I earned the Helicopter badge from my Fitbit Charge3…

How cool is that? I didn’t even realize Fitbit had badges you could earn. This badge was pretty easy to achieve when I’m going up and down three flights of stairs all the time in our house. 😀⚡️🚁❤️

One year ago today, we were watching Western Michigan University hockey on TV and saw my parents right there, front and center…

That was pretty neat. Thanks for the memories, Timehop! 😀🦕❤️

It’s mainly on Fridays that I really wish the Super Pac-Man machine in our office was fully functional and not just for looks…

It would be a nice way to wind down the work week. SO if anyone knows how to fix an arcade that would be great. Just asking for a friend. Taken with Instagram. 😀👻☠️❤️

They’re working on the elevator at work this morning…

Have you ever looked up a six-floor elevator shaft before?

Yeah. Me either. Looks like I’m going to be taking the stairs today. It’s a good thing my hips are feeling so much better now. Taken with Instagram. 😀⬆️🆙❤️

After work this evening, we stopped by Queen City Exchange on Court Street…



Queen City Exchange is Cincinnati’s first and only stock exchange-themed bar, featuring a whopping 41 beers on tap with prices that rise and fall depending on demand. From QCE’s website…
Located between Cincinnati’s Central Business District and Over the Rhine, QCE offers a drink concept unique to the city with craft beer offered anywhere from $3.50 to $9 solely dependent upon customer demand.
It’s such a fun concept. We always go to Kalamazoo Beer Exchange whenever we visit my parents up in Michigan, and it’s always a really good time. In fact, it’s probably one of our very favorite bars. We went in hoping QCE would bring a bit of the same KBE vibe to our backyard in downtown Cincinnati…



And they have a popcorn maker…

We love it when places have popcorn. It’s a really great space…

Time to get down to business…


QCE had a lot of great beers on tap. And they are a verified venue on Untappd! I think that’s great because I can always easily see what QCE has on tap via the Untappd app as well as receive updated on new beers they tap and any upcoming events. We had a couple of beers, a couple helpings of popcorn, and had a lot of fun watching the prices fluctuate while we tried to plan our next beer. We had a great time. We’ll definitely be back very soon. And hopefully, next time we’re in the Queen City Exchange beer market will crash!
