After Arsenal was knocked out of the FA Cup at the hands of Southampton this afternoon, we went over to Taft’s Brewpourium for a late lunch to get some pizza…
Genifer tried Taft’s hard seltzer and it was really good…
And soon as we started the the show, Mack snuck off to hang out down in our studio office on his dog bed…
He sleep down there a lot. As I was getting ready for bed, I stopped to admire the view out of our third-floor bathroom window that looks out over our backyard…
I like the views we have around of little neighborhood. It was another good day. But any day that involves an NYPD pizza party is a pretty good day. 😀🌄☕️🍕🐾❤️
This afternoon, Joe Biden became the 46th president of the United States, and declared that “democracy has prevailed.” Kamala Harris made history as the first female vice-president, and the first Black person and person of South Asian descent to hold the position. And where we are a deeply divided nation in the midst of crises arguably greater than any time before in our history, there was an optimism and a feeling of hope that had been missing for the last four years. I thought this was pretty funny…
I like gleefreshing. 🤗
Good evening from Northside…
We had cheese tortellini for dinner tonight…
And there was garlic bread…
And Genifer made deep dish cookies for dessert…
I put some caramel sauce on my cookie and ice cream cup…
This evening, we watched Sightless on Netflix. It was pretty okay. But today was a pretty great day. And all of a sudden, there’s hope again. 😀🌄🌮🇺🇸🍝🍪📺❤️
It was another really delicious meal. The cheesy chicken was really terrific and the green beans were really good. I think crispy onions can make anything even more delicious. We like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot.
While I was working this afternoon, I listened to Leicester beat Chelsea 2-0to go top of the Premier League. And this evening, we watched Michigan bounce back from their first loss by thumping Maryland 87-63.
Today, we remember the legacy of a great man. We honor The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr… a man who dared to dream while standing fearlessly in the face of adversity. We celebrate the man who taught us to dream while still loving others…
“We may have all come on different ships, but we’re in the same boat now.”
“An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.”
“Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.”
“Only in the darkness can you see the stars.”
“Everybody can be great … because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.”
We both had the day off work today for the holiday. It was a cold and snowy day…
Good morning from Northside…
Genifer made cheesy buffalo chicken pasta with garlic bread for lunch…
Good evening from Northside…
I realized when we got to the stairs at the top of the hill at the end of our street that I had forgotten my little fisheye Moment lens…
Today, we watched Arsenal beat Newcastle 3-0. And we watched the MLK Day NBA games especially the Grizzlies win over the Suns. I like the Griz. I think they have the best logo in the NBA. It was a very nice day off. And another very low-key, relaxing day. 😀🌄❄️🔥🐔⚽️🏀❤️
We ventured out to try something new this afternoon, Agave & Rye in Rookwood…
We started with some chips and guacamole…
Genifer loves guacamole…
And it was really good at Agave & Rye. We also started with the elotte…
And we each had an epic taco. Genifer had The Buddha: teriyaki 5-spice tofu, sticky rice, baby corn, water chestnuts, cilantro, green onion, carrots, red bell pepper, Shiitake mushrooms, crispy wontons, sweet thai chili sauce…
I love ground beef tacos. And they’re kind of hard to find out. Agave & Rye had two on their menu. So this time I ordered The Cousin of Vinnie: seasoned ground beef, tomato-vodka sauce, mac n cheese, white cheddar, tobacco onions and queso cushion in between the two taco shells…
Next time, I’ll try the other ground beef taco. Their tacos were amazing and huge. And they had a bunch of interesting sounding tacos on their menu.
Everything we ordered was delicious…
Agave & Rye had a whole bunch of arcade game that would have been fun to play…
But we’re still in the middle of a pandemic and I didn’t want to touch anything…
Agave & Rye was incredible. Everything was delicious. Their tacos were huuuuge. And we left so stuffed. I think we just found our new favorite taco shop now that Django Western Taco has moved out of Northside.
When we got home, we took the dogs out around the block…
And it was still cold…
Good evening from Northside…
We ended up taking a nap. And later, we watched the NFL playoff games…
I was happy to see Tom Brady win. I was sad to see Drew Brees lose. And I thought the refs jobbed the Browns. How did they miss this helmet-to-helmet hit? Most likely, it cost the Browns a touchdown and they would end up losing by 5 points. Next weekend, I’ll be cheering for Brady and the Bills. Because nothing would be worse than a State Farm Superb Owl with Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes. I don’t really care for either of them very much.
But anyway, we had a really great day with some epic tacos! 😀🌄❄️🌮🐾🏈❤️
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.
Skyline is so good. Genifer had a deluxe burrito. I had a 5-way and two cheese coneys while I finished up my work for the week. And then it was overcast again when we went on our evening week…
Good evening from Northside…
We shared our Cinnabon cheesecake we got with our lunch…
