Good morning from Northside.

Good morning from Northside. Taken with Instagram. 🙂

 

Slow down and grill.

I don’t know if you noticed but we hadn’t grilled yet this week. So I stopped into Avril Bleh Meat Market downtown on Court Street looking to pick up some burger patties to throw on the grill tonight…

I got two aged steak burger patties. The butcher said they were made with the leftover meat after they were done cutting the steaks. When there wasn’t enough meat left to cut another steak, they took what was left and ground into patties…

And we threw a bunch of hot dogs on the grill for lunches…

I should have cleaned off the top of the grill before it got super hot. Stupid mulberries.

After the burgers and dogs were done, we threw some chicken strips on the grill that Genifer had marinated half in BBQ sauce and half in jerk seasoning…

She also made some spicy baked mac & cheese topped Ritz crackers…

A delicious meal! Those burgers were outstanding, and the mac & cheese was great!

YUM! We love our grill! 😀 🍔 🌭 ❤️

 

FA Cup Champions.

We watched The FA Cup final live from Wembley this afternoon on the telly. I was so happy that my Arsenal managed to down newly-crowned champions Chelsea. It was a long season for the Gunners. It was really nice to have it end on such a high note…

Amid all the turmoil this season, I’ve always been very much Wenger stay.

Since he took leadership of Arsenal in 1996, Arsene Wenger steered them to 3 Premier League titles, 7 FA Cups, FA Community Shields and 21 straight Champions League appearances. His teams also set several English records: the longest win streak, the longest unbeaten run and the only 38 match season unbeaten.

I suppose there’s a chance that by getting rid of Arsene Wenger and making the change to another manager could reap more championships or maybe be more successful in the Champions League. But I think there’s a greater chance that the team would not be nearly as successful. I just don’t understand how people have been all upset by the club “only” lifting 16 trophies in the last 21 years. And how many other clubs would love to have a run of 21 consecutive top four finishes? I guess for some people nothing’s ever good enough. 😀 ⚽️ ❤️

UPDATE: Arsene Wenger has signed a new two-year deal! But he was told by Arsenal chiefs, You must win major trophy in two years.” No pressure there. Ugh. 😬

NYPD Pizza.

We planned to order pizza tonight and watch the Reds play the Indians on TV. It’s fun to eat pizza and watch the Reds. Apparently, there was some sort of torrential downpour in Cleveland and the Reds-Indians game was postponed. Even without the Reds, tonight still seemed like a good NYPD pizza kind of night. Their Station House pizza is just lights out. And we added ham to it tonight to make it even better! I’ve also really been digging on their BBQ/Buffalo wings lately too…

YUM! We really like NYPD. They’re such good stuff. 🙂

Pause for paws.

Oscar was playing with his sammich this evening…

And when we’re done playing keep away, he has to hide his sammich…

Oscar is silly and he loves that sammich. 🙂

Two goals = half-priced pizzas.

When FC Cincy scores two goals, Papa John’s offers half-priced pizzas the next day! So this evening, we got a Papa John’s pizza and some cheese sticks…

YUM! Half-priced pizza sure is delicious! 😀 ❤️ ⚽️ 🍕

A lazy Sunday.

It was a pretty lazy Sunday today. We just laid around…

And watched the Reds game…

Lazy Sundays are the best Sundays. 🙂

Finns in our backyard.

We sat out on our back patio and enjoyed a couple of Finn’s from Urban Artifact…

It was a really beautiful evening. 🙂

More grilling with Clifton Market.

On the way home, I stopped at Clifton Market again to get some more of their amazing bacon cheddar burgers to put on the grill this evening…

And you know it’s almost summer when the Bell’s Oberon makes its first appearance…

We put the burgers on the grill and Genifer had some chicken cutlets too…

Those burgers are so delicious…

And it turned out to be a really pretty evening as well…

🙂

We ❤️ our backyard.

We mowed our yard this evening and then hung out on our back patio…

We ❤️ our backyard. 🙂
