Have you been to a Cincinnati Cyclones game? Have you taken your family? We have gone to a few games, and always have a blast. We’ve gone without the kids with our friends, Michael has gone to a game as part of a bachelor party, and we’ve gone to games with the kids. Anyway you...
Last night was a beautiful spring night, and we took advantage of the weather and spent the evening outside. First we had a scrumptious dinner (and some good brews) at Keystone Bar & Grill, where we dined outside watching the world go by. Then we took a walk down to Riverside Drive along the Ohio...
Elmo and friends are going to be singing and dancing their way into Cincinnati in May, and if you have a special toddler or preschooler in your life they are not going to want to miss this show! Elmo Makes Music will be at the USBank Arena for just one weekend in May, and I...
Even if you don’t drink beer, or have any interest in beer festivals, you should consider going on a brewery tour in Over the Rhine. These tours are not just for beer lovers and history buffs. I think everyone should take this tour to realize what lies beneath the streets you drive on in Cincinnati. ...
Can a cheeseball be a dessert? I say yes. I love a good sweet cheeseball for snacking. My sister in law Jessica makes a fabulous Chocolate Chip Cheeseball, it satisfies every sweet tooth. She made it this past weekend for a baby shower we were hosting for our other sister in law, Jenny. I noticed...
The Cincinnati Shakespeare Company has just begun performing Henry IV last week. I haven’t had a chance to see this show yet, but if it’s anything like every other show I have seen at Cincy Shakes then you know it’s going to be great. We’ve yet to see a show there that we haven’t thoroughly...
I have such a soft spot in my heart for Willy Wonka, Charlie Bucket, Grandpa Joe and the whole gang. Roald Dahl’s book “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” was one of my favorites growing up, and I’ve even re-read it a few times as an adult. I’ve watched both movies repeatedly, as have my children. ...
And so it goes…we had another crazy busy week last week. I did my best to make some good quality dinners, but we did end up eating out a few times, much to mama’s chagrin. I’m determined that this week will be better…we’re going to quit eating out so much and eat dinner at home! ...
Do you find yourself day dreaming about the warmer months? Believe it or not, summer is going to be here before you know it! Now is the time to be planning activities for your children for the summer. It’s the perfect time to be looking into summer camps for the munchkins. Are you stumped on...
It’s Monday! Time to plan our menu for the week and get the grocery list written. My plan is to spend more time in the kitchen this week, as last week we had a lot of dinners out due to lack of menu planning and a busy schedule. We attended a beautiful wedding over the...
I love pesto so much, and I’m always trying to find ways to incorporate it into new recipes. At the end of each summer, when the basil plants resemble bushes and our CSA share is full of basil I find myself making mass quantities of Homemade Pesto and freezing it for the winter months. There’s...
Last week we had the chance to go see the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey’s Built to Amaze Circus show at the USBank Arena. It was a great show! I am a Feld Ambassador, so we were treated with fabulous tickets and swag bags for the munchkins, which made the show that much better! ...
