May The Stars Light Your Way
As you saw in yesterday’s blog post, here is the menu we served for Christmas Eve. Here, I’ve expanded it to include the wines we served. My mother & father joined us, along with Paul, and Deb, two close friends. After Wendy & I went shopping…
MERRY CHRISTMAS! Wendy & I woke up early to celebrate our Christmas together with the pets. Once done with that, we headed over to Wendy’s family’s home to celebrate with them before being joined in the evening by Wendy’s extended family and my parents to celebrate…
After the hectic holidays, Wendy & I snuck to a dark, quiet Chinese restaurant (whose name I do not know — it’s the one near the Outback & Taj Mahal restaurants) for really good carryout-style food. Wendy had Pad Thai, I had General Tao’s Chicken (which was the weakest dish of the evening), and we shared some Pot Stickers and Cold Sesame Noodles.

I’m going to spend the rest of the evening catching up on a few tasks I’ve had laying around for a while and hit the sack early. What a glamorous life, eh?!

Eagle-eyed readers of this blog may be able to spot where it went wrong. If you do, please let me know so I can attempt to fix it!
Tonight, Wendy & I joined Anne and Larry for dinner to celebrate our anniversary at The Phoenix restaurant in downtown Cincinnati. The restaurant at The Phoenix has been satisfying Cincinnati locals and visitors for over 20 years. The food and service have received high marks…
