Anyone who says pineapple isn’t a pizza topping clearly hasn’t had a Hawaiian pizza because they are delicious. We finished all of it while we watched more Olympics…
We used some more of our Taft’s gift card. And we still have a little bit of our gift card left. It’s been the gift that keeps on giving. We love Taft’s.
And good evening from Northside…
We had a great Sunday and a great weekend. 😀🌄🍕🍍🥗🐔❤️
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…
It was so nice this morning. The temperature was supposed to be in the low 60s today…
Good morning from Northside…
Day twelve of my Lego City Advent Calendar…
Early this afternoon it started pouring down rain though it was hard to tell from our third-floor WyzeCam…
It rained for about an hour. And then it stopped just before we went to meet our friends Mehwish and Ben at the only place we really go to anymore because of the pandemic… Taft’s Brewpourium. We met them over there to hang out, catch up, and of course, have a beer and eat some pizza…
I forgot to take a photo of all of us. I’m so bad at remembering to take a photo when we’re hanging out with people. Or maybe just self-conscious or something. But I did remember to take a photo of our pizzas…
This was Taft’s new pizza, The Fiamma…
It’s their mozzarella with tomato sauce base topped with hot soppressata and hot honey drizzle. And it was a really delicious pizza. It turns out soppressata was less like salami and more like pepperoni. The honey on the pizza was really good. And it was hot warm, not hot spicy. It was a really terrific pie.
TRAIN!
And we saw a beautiful sunset from Taft’s…
We had so much fun hanging out with Mehwish and Ben. It was great to see them, hang out and catch up. It’s been a minute since we’ve hung out with other people.
It ended up being a pretty evening in Northside…
Good evening from Northside…
The NBA preseason started this evening with both my Mavs and Grizzlies playing their first games of the new season. We didn’t get to watch either of their games. We don’t get many of the Mavs or Grizz games on TV. But it’s terrific to know that NBA Basketball is back!
Halloween should’ve been perfect this year. It fell on a Saturday, with a full moon and with daylight savings time everyone got an extra hour of sleep the next day. But unfortunately, 2020 had other ideas.
Halloween got off to a very frosty start…
Good morning from Northside…
And for the first time this fall, we had to scrape our windows this morning…
After the windows defrosted, we ran over to the grocery…
And then it was on to Mad Llama for Saturday morning Halloween coffee…
This afternoon we ordered pizza from Taft’s Brewpourium. And we had accumulated some rewards…
Omigosh! Look at our Taft’s Brewpourium pizza feast…
I’m pretty sure Taft’s is my favorite pizza is all of Cincinnati. It’s so good.
Oscar was telling us it’s time to go on our evening walk…
And when we were walking the dogs, we noticed this…
That’s pretty darn creepy.
Good evening from Northside…
We hung this guy out on our back porch…
This afternoon I had to knock out a few things for work while I listened to Arsenal lose 1-0 to Leicester, and then we watched the Bengals come up short against the Browns.
This evening, we watched the Dodgers win the World Series. It’s a bummer. It would have been so neat for Tampa Bay teams to win the Stanley Cup and the World Series. This season will always have asterisk next to it for me. The Dodgers were the best team that money could buy over the course of a pandemic-shortened 60-game season. Personally, I liked it much better when the Dodgers would spend all that money year after year and and then come up short. That was great. 😀🌄🍕🐾⚽️🏈⚾️❤️
It looked like it was going to be a very pretty Sunday. Good morning from Northside…
There wasn’t a cloud in the sky this morning…
With MLB baseball back, our natural inclination was, “Dang, we should go to the Reds game today.” But we can’t because you know, COVID-19. It’s such a bummer.
And since we didn’t go to watch the Reds game at Newport on the Levee yesterday, we did what we do almost every weekend since things have reopened. We went over to Taft’s Brewpourium this afternoon for New Haven-style pizza, a couple of beers…
And now… Reds baseball…
We’ve always loved Taft’s Brewpourium. But during the pandemic, it’s really become our go-to place when we need to get out of the house. It’s a big and airy space with lots of room for social distancing. And of course, delicious pizzas and great beers…
And now Reds baseball…
We ordered our new favorite pizza, a 10″ white pizza with prosciutto, cherry tomatoes, and arugula after bake. It’s so dang good. We paired our pizza with loaded tots now topped with pulled pork but on the side…
That pulled pork was just dynamite…
I ended up eating most of the pulled pork just by itself. We love Taft’s Brewpourium…
Oh, theReds lost. Again. On our way home, we saw this stock car…
And then, it was good evening from Northside…
And I was tinkering with filters and stuff…
It was a pretty good Sunday. It was pretty much like a lot of other Sundays during this pandemic. I don’t know if having baseball back is really a good thing or a bad thing. It’s cool that baseball is back. But it’s already really frustrating not being able to go to the games in person. But then this entire pandemic is just pretty frustrating. 😀🍕⚾️❤️
It’s kind of funny to us. It seems like Taft’s Brewpourium is really the only place we go any more. It’s close, the pizza and beers are great, they take all the right precautions to keep everyone safe, and now they have seats near the bar again…
We sat at one of the picnic tables on the other side of the Brewpourium…
We ordered a white pizza with mozzarella, prosciutto, cherry tomatoes, and arugula…
Taft’s had some Fourth of July weekend specials. We ordered two of them… pasta salad and BBQ Grippo crusted chicken wings…
It was a lot of food. Everything was really good as always. And I think the pizza we ordered just became our new favorite. We love Taft’s Brewpourium. It’s always been one of our favorite places but even more so during this pandemic. We don’t know what we would do or where we would go without Tafts.
And good evening from Northside…
It was another good Sunday. But it’s hard to have a bad day when you have Taft’s pizza. 😀🌄🍕🐔❤️
Today was Father’s Day. We hope all the dads had a wonderful day. Genifer The dogs got me an awesome new BBQ utensil set and a super-cool new Reds t-shirt for Father’s Day. It was really very unexpected. She’s the best wife. They’re the best dogs.
