This afternoon we went out to West Chester to visit Genifer’s mom. I love hanging out with Geri. We got to exchange Christmas gifts. And when we were packing up to come home, there was this gorgeous sunset…

How adorable are these Gardenhouse Pottery #TeamFiona Cincinnati mugs JJVE sent us for Christmas?


I see many, many hot chocolates enjoyed in these mugs. And we got a Downtown Cincinnati gift card too?! Thanks, JJVE! ππβ€οΈ

After lunch at Sacred Beast, we did some shopping in OtR. We went to Mica 12v. They had this wall of clocks that was pretty mesmerizing to watch…

Then we went to The Native One. Genifer loves this store…



I wanted to steal these adorable dog toys, and I would take the dog bed too…

We saw this guy on Vine Street…


We went to Elm&Iron…














And then across the street to Elm&Iron Loft…






















I think my dream job would be doing the Instagram for Elm&Iron. We stopped into Low Spark for a drink…



And then we walked down to Sundry and Vice for a drink before heading home…




We love their amazing cocktails. It was a really fun afternoon of shopping and hanging out in OtR. πποΈπΉβ€οΈ

We went down into Over-the-Rhine for some holiday shopping this afternoon but first, we stopped at new diner spot, Sacred Beast for lunch…




It’s really nice inside…



We ordered a bunch of food…

I ordered the crispy chicken with dipping sauces…

We shared a side order of fries…

Genifer ordered a single cheeseburger…

And apparently, the single cheeseburger has TWO patties! The double cheeseburger has three patties. That’s crazy! Oh, and we also added a side order of onion rings…


Holy geez. Everything was so delicious and awesome! We ate every last bite. And we were so stuffed. We can’t wait to come back for more at Sacred Beast. ππβ€οΈ

Just a whale pillow on a bear bean bag…

Why do I have to be an adult? It’s so adorable and looks so comfy. ππ³π»β€οΈ

Everyday on our way home from downtown, we drive by this house up on the hill at the corner of West McMillan Street and Central Parkway…

I haven’t been able to figure out what’s going on with the facade. But it looks like they painted windows and buttresses and some sort of scene that involves a goat…

Thtat’s different. I wonder what the story is behind that uniqueness. ππ¨ποΈβ€οΈ

When Genifer got home this evening, she found our holiday penguins on the floor. When she picked them up to put them back where they belong, she noticed bot of the penguins were missing their eyes…

Apparently, Oscar had chewed the eyes off of the penguins and left both sets on the dog bed that is on our living room sofa…


He’s such a butt. But he sure is cute…


Later, he made himself a little OscarNest on our third-floor sofa out of a pillows and sweatshirts…


What a silly head. ππΎβ€οΈ
