Day long fun

On a beautiful fall day my love and I ventured out for a full day of Cleveland fun! It started with the Tri-C food fest, continued on to Noble Brewing, a trip to Playhouse Square and Red.
Let's start with the food festival....such a great idea. We signed up for the ticket and tastings. We got 3 tastings and 2 drinks each. Food was phenomenal and it was a great way to try a new restaurant. Among the amazing restaurants we're Adega, Edwin's, Fire, Burtwood Tavern, Zach Bruell, Pura Vida, and so many more. There were also vendors sharing tastes of beer jam, charcuterie, and snacks. Three tastes was plenty of food and we got to sit on the grass watching some fun bands!







Walking to our car, which we parked for free on a Saturday downtown, we stopped at Noble Brewing for a drink and to watch the Indians game. Noble is a fun place to hang out with a group. We did not eat, but I've had food here before and it is pretty solid.

That night we had tickets to the Uncle Lou Variety Show. I have to say we laughed uncontrollably! For any Italians out there, the show is worth it. We decided to end the day at Red. We ordered my two favorite appetizers, steak tartar and lemon garlic shrimp. Red is always a good night out, not that I have any bias. 


We had an amazing day and it was very affordable for what we did all day. Tickets to the food fest were $20, Uncle Lou was $35 each. Under $150 total for a day of eating, drinking, and live entertainment.
Ps- we walked past the Rock Hall inductees and I got a pic of my favorite band "record".

Palermo day 2 & Corleone

  We started our day with breakfast at the B & B before heading off for the day.  meat, cheese, filled cornetto & espresso. We then met our driver from Welcome Pickups.  We drove to Corleone which was Ronnie's Great Grandparents hometown.  This is a picture on the drive down- it is about an hour drive.   Some random pictures of the town and Ronnie and his dad, Ron, in one of the Piazzas.   We then stopped in one of the churches to light candles and say prayers.  It was beautiful inside.   We tried walking  around a bit, the streets were narrow, and all seemed downhill so we did not get too far.  We were also getting hungry.  Ronnie's dad wanted pizza so we stopped for that.   There was a St. Anthony so I felt good with this place!  The girl here did not speak English so it was not good for my husband or his dad.  I did the ordering.  Normally in Italy it is one pizza per person especia...

Bologna Day3- day trip to Modena

 We started off the day sort of late.  Decided to do a day trip to Modena, round trip was under 17 euros total for us both.  We walked to the train station which is literally like 5 minutes from our hotel grabbed a cappuccino water and apricot filled croissant and off we went.  We arrive in Modena less than a half hour later.   look at the pretty streets of Modena Another day another piazza! But we were in Modena and I was in search of balsamic...a tasting a something.  The first store I went in to had very, very high end balsamic you could do a tasting for a price and the cheapest bottle started at 60 Euro.  This was not our balsamic market.  This was a little above where we wanted to buy and we have tasted the really expensive stuff before.  But then we found a reasonable store.  Giuseppe Giusti offers free tastings of their balsamic at all different levels and their vermouth.  It was all fantastic.  We decided on some i...

GIrls Trip- Alaska

I know know, this blog is all about the fun stuff I do with my husband, but this one blog post is going to be about an adventure I had with the one person I have known the longest in my life- my sister! The trip started with Angela texting one day asking if I wanted to see the Aurora Borealis....I thought sure why not.  And then we booked a trip and here we are. As we were planning I remembered an old friend from my semester at American lives in Fairbanks so I reached out to him for suggestions.  He offered some great ideas on places to go, things to do, and places to eat. Sadly we will not be able to see him and his wife, because they leave for vacation right after we got in town.   So the adventure for me started with a 7:50 text that my flight changed and a rerouting.  I left Cleveland at 1:40 pm and met up with my sister in Seattle at around 7 pacific time for a quick dinner before we parted ways for our flights to Fairbanks (different airlines).  ...
