The dogs found a little patch of sunlight in our front bedroom…
Michigan lost to Sparty to end their championship regular season. The Wolverines first game of the Big Ten Tournament will be on Friday at 11:30am.
Around 10pm, we were watching the NBA All-Star Game on TNT and our lost our power. Apparently, all of Northside lost power…
Genifer got a text from the power company that said a car hit something that knocked out power to the entire neighborhood. I woke up around 1am and thankfully, our power was back on. πππΎππ¦β€οΈ

Good morning from Northside…
We ran over to the grocery…
And we stopped for Saturday morning coffee…
This afternoon we ventured over to the East End of Cincinnati…
We met our friends Ben and Mehwish at The Hi-Mark…
We had so much fun getting to hang out for a bit…
Good evening from Northside…
We had a very fun Saturday. ππβοΈπ»ββοΈβοΈππβ₯οΈ

Happy Valentine’s Day!
Good morning from Northside…
We ran over to the grocery this morning…
I thought Ice Bear had been pulled out of the claw machine…
But he was just moved from the front corner to the back corner. poor guy…
They were still out of pandas and trains…
But there were still plenty of Valentine’s Day balloons…
Lotsa balloons…
Cincinnati was expecting a big winter storm starting later in the afternoon. And that made the check-out lines really long…
And we stopped for coffees…
Arsenal smacked around Leeds United, 4-2. And Michigan was finally back from their three week COVID pause and they had to play away to Wisconsin…
And BOOM! They didn’t miss a beat…
After the Michigan game, we went over to Taft’s for pizza…
We tried Taft’s newest beer, Hazy Cabana Juice…
It was really good. We got some loaded tots…
Very blurry tots. And we got a pepperoni, sausage and mushroom pizza…
Taft’s had a Valentine’s Day special with a heart-shaped pizza and cannoli. We didn’t get the special deal but they had extra cannoli and gave us a couple…
Good evening from Northside…
And then we hung out and had a few drinks and watched Mavs basketball…
It probably wasn’t the world’s most romantic Valentine’s Day but it was a really great Sunday. ππβοΈππβ€οΈ

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 Gameβ’…
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 Gameβ’…
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. ππβοΈπ¦ππΊβ€οΈ

It’s Saturday! Happy Saturday!
Good morning from Northside…
We ran over to the grocery this morning…
And Ice Bear was still locked inside the claw grab machine…
And there was only one panda and the trains were all sold out…
We always liked 21st Amendment’s Hell or High Watermelon. But we’ve never seen Hell or High Mango before. We’ll have to give it a try sometime…
And we saw this M-43 NE IPA from Old Nation Brewing in Williamston, Michigan over on the other side of Lansing…
I’d never really heard of One Nation Brewing or Williamston before. There were still some football balloons before next weekend’s Superb Owl big game…
And there were some Valentine’s Day balloons…
Bunches and bunches of Valentine’s Day balloons…
We stopped at Biggby for coffee…
And we had a BOGO…
We’re saving our Christmas Biggby gift cards for when we don’t have a free one…
Mmmmm… Biggby…
Arsenal played a nil-nil draw with United. And Xavier resumed their season, picking up right where they left off with a 13 point win at Butler.
Good evening from Northside…
And later it started snowing…
It started snowing kind of a lot for us. We were watching the snow accumulate on our street from our third-floor WyzeCam…
We watched The White Tiger on Netflix and then started season one of Unit 42. The White Tiger was pretty good and Unit 42 is just pretty okay. And that was our Saturday It was a pretty happy Saturday. πππβοΈβοΈπΊβ€οΈ

Today was my birthday. Apparently, there was a full moon last night and we could still sort of see it out of our bathroom window this morning…
There were some really pretty clouds this morning…
Good morning from Northside…
This morning we ran over to the Kroger Fuel Station to fill up…
We had 80Β’ off per gallon thanks to our Kroger Fuel points…
And then we ran over to Mad Llama for birthday coffee…
JAVA WHIPS!
And it was 29ΒΊ on January 29th…
Good evening from Northside…
Birthday presents!
We had a $10 off coupon from DoorDash so we ordered dinner from China Food…
We ordered so much food…
But it was delicious. We can’t wait to order more dinners from China Food.
Later, we watched the Mavs lose to the Jazz. Bummer. And over in the Big Ten, #19 Illinois knocked off #7 Iowa…
Afterward, I saw this on Twitter…
And there was this one. π€£ Poor Sparty. They’re having a rough year. I really miss Michigan basketball. I can’t wait until they’re done with their quarantine.
I had a really wonderful birthday. Especially for being in the middle of a pandemic…
Thank you for all the cards and birthday wishes. ππβ½οΈβοΈππ₯‘β€οΈ

It was a could and snowy morning in Northside…
Good morning from Northside…
We went over to the grocery this morning. It counts as our Saturday activity…
Both the panda and train were on the shelf today…
And the football balloons still dominated the balloons…
And then we got coffees from Mad Llama…
JAVA WHIPS!
After that we were pretty lazy…
We still had some flurries this evening…
Good evening from Northside…
You can see the snowflakes on Mack’s head…
We had a Kroger flatbread pizza for lunch with Caesar salad. It was really good. Somehow, I didn’t take a photo of it. I don’t remember what we had for dinner.
But we had tiramisu for dessert…
Michigan got thumped by Minnesota. And we watched Outside the Wire on Netflix. It was pretty good. We had another good pandemic Saturday. πππ¨οΈβοΈππΊβ€οΈ

It kind of figures that 2020 is going out with a gloomy, overcast day…
Good morning from Northside…
We ran over to Trader Joe’s this morning to pick up a few things…
We used one of our Trader Joe’s gift cards…
Thanks, mom & dad!
Trader Joe’s has the best taco sauce. Last time we were at TJ’s, they were all sold out of taco sauce. Thankfully, today they restocked and there was plenty…
Did we mention we had a Trader Joe’s gift card?
Trader Joe’s was having an employee gingerbread house contest…
This one was my favorite…
Ha. This is fine. And then we went to Biggby to get New Years Eve coffee…
Mack was all crashed out in our studio office…
We walked over to Northside Tavern for a couple of New Years Eve drinks…
It was nice to get out of the house for a bit and have some fun. On our walk home, we stopped by Kitchen Factory to get a couple of slices…
And our slices didn’t even make it home. We ate them while we were walking and they were deliciousβ¦
We took the dogs around the block…
Good evening from Northside…
Our plan we to stay up to watch the ball drop on TV. But we nodded off on our sofa. I woke up a couple of minutes before midnight. Genifer had already gone upstairs. I let the dogs out in the backyard just as the clock hit midnight. A whole bunch of cheers and noise makers could be as the clock struck midnight. And then there were some firework popped up all over the sky. And my cameras were on the dining table because I was just going to let the dogs out before heading upstairs. Oh well. I’m just happy that we can get a fresh start in the morning.
We hope everyone had a happy and safe New Years Eve. ππβοΈπΎπ»ππππβ€οΈ
