Sunday Brunch with special people. Five of us gathered on the patio of The Brown Dog Cafe for a delectable meal and leisurely visit. The cafe is a part of the new Blue Ash community complex located on the site of the former Blue Ash airport. We checked out another delicious interpretation of the poutine, this one with egg, beef baracoa, and three cheese sauce atop the classic fries, cheese curds, and gravy as well as a platter of ala carte items including a generous slab of that Cincinnati specialty, Goetta! It was a most satisfying meal and visit. Fortunately the cafe has a generous amount of seating so even on a busy summer Sunday we were welcome to linger at the table. And there was plenty of seating in the central courtyard inviting us to linger longer on this beautiful day.
Aboard the Norwegian Jewel we’ve made stops in Cozumel, Mexico and Georgetown, Grand Cayman to explore beyond our previous experiences here. Soon we’ll be making our way to ports we’ve not yet explored in the Southern Caribbean.
What a treat to pause for a BBQ lunch with the locals at Pearl Country Store and Barbecue on US-441 in Micanopy, Florida. It’s a taste of the Florida we remeber from our youth.
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
