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. 😀🌄☁️🍕🏀❤️
Today was our last day of the our long holiday break…
And it was another grey and rainy day.
Good morning from Northside…
This morning we ran over to the grocery store to get stuff for the upcoming week…
According to the balloons at Kroger, I guess the next major holiday is the Superb Owl…
We made BLTs for lunch with turkey bacon. I really like turkey bacon a lot. I made my BLTs on little Hawaiian rolls with two slices of cheese. They were delicious…
We watched football until it was time to take the dogs on their walk.
It was delicious! Thanks so much for the delicious pizzas, JJVE! We really enjoyed them.
For dessert, Genifer made gooey deep dish cookies with chocolate chips and butterscotch chips. And we paired the cookies with little ice cream party cups…
They were delicious as well. Genifer always finds the best recipes to make.
This evening we finished the second season of Marcella on Netflix. It’s a good show.
We had a wonderful long holiday break. NO matter how long it is, it never feels long enough. I think I always have delusions of grandeur that I’m going to get more done or get more accomplished. This time I didn’t really accomplish a whole lot. But at least, we got to hang out and spend lots of time together and watch a bunch of movies and have a great holiday. And it was very relaxing. 😀🌄☁️🎈🥪🍕🍪📺
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 delicious…
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. 😀🌄☕️🐾🍻🍕🎊🎉🎆❤️
Boxing Day is a holiday celebrated the day after Christmas Day. It originated as a holiday to give gifts to the poor. Boxing Day was traditionally a day off for servants, and the day when they received a special Christmas box from their masters. The servants would also go home on Boxing Day to give Christmas boxes to their families. Today, it’s a great day of soccer from the UK. Early this morning, we watched Leicester rally twice to draw 2-2 with Manchester United…
MERRY CHRISTMAS! It was a chilly Christmas in Cincinnati…
And we woke up to a white Christmas…
We got the dogs a bunch of new dog toys and blankets for Christmas…
I took a little video of the dogs coming in from outside to discover all their new toys…
And now the dogs have a very full box of toys…
After the dogs got to play with their toys for a bit, we took them out on their walk…
Good morning from Northside…
Genifer made Magic Middles for breakfast this morning…
Magic Middles are delicious…
After breakfast, we opened our presents and exchanged our gifts. My parents sent us this hilarious 2020 ornament…
A huge thank you so much to my mom & dad for all our wonderful Christmas gifts…
There was a bit of debate over this advent calendar…
I thought we should start at one, count along with the days and end on twenty-five. Genifer thought we should start on twenty-five and countdown to one and end on the star. And you can see who won that debate…
This afternoon we headed up to West Chester to celebrate Christmas with Geri. We took some shrimps, a meat & cheese tray, a whole bunch of dippers and that was our Christmas dinner. We had a wonderful time spending the afternoon with her.
When we got home, we took the dogs around the block…
Good evening from Northside…
After the dog’s were done with the freezing cold walk, we watched a bunch of basketball and called it a day. We had a really wonderful Christmas day. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas as well. 😀🎄❤️
