Bromwell’s

Sean Fisher over at buycincy had a pretty good write-up of Bromwell’s last week. But one thing he forgot to mention, the store kitties! I didn’t get the name of the one, but Cinder, followed us around from room to room never letting us get within arm’s reach. After awhile I guess he’d learned enough and jumped up on a chair and started cooing and purring away. So even if you don’t need a fireplace, you could always use a new friend.





And speaking of buycincy, Sean is promoting CINCINNATI UNCHAINED Nov. 17th. This is in conjunction with America Unchained promoting locally owned businesses and asking people to break the chain habit for one day. Where ever you live, Cincinnati or not, This Saturday support an independent business.

Enzo's OTR

Isn't the sense of smell the one sense that drags out the deepest and most intense memories? Upon ordering breakfast I was handed a coffee cup and presented with a small selection of flavors. Grogg! haven't had that in years, the first stream into the cup and all these memories of the Beat Coffee House in Youngstown came flooding back. Haven't been there forever but that was our Saturday morning spot while there.
Normaly our Saturday breakfast is light but when told they carried Jean-Francois's waffles we caved like the Bengals "D" against Brady. I'm glad Jackie had told us they would be open today, and as a bonus we had the pleasure of meeting Mike from CityKin and chatting for a little while.
Enzo's is going to be open for the next few Saturday's to test the weekend market so I better see you there next Saturday, I'm keeping score.

New exit for the Gramercy parking deck

As we pull into the alley off Race that leads to the Gramercy Parking Garage, there were a ton of people and cars blocking the alley, “Come on” this seems to happen once in awhile and its always frustrating. But we got them to move and then we saw what was happening WOW is that crazy or what. On the top parking level where we park I noticed Adam's truck wasn’t in its usual spot and Ms. 5chw4r7z and I were both thinking Holy Crap, I jumped out of the car and raced over but it had Ohio plates so I was relived then we both thought that our apartment is directly above that spot and ran there but of course everything was ok. Out on the street we see Adam and laughingly tell him for a minute we thought it was him and he says “Oh no, it was me!” OH MAN so that was our excitement for the evening.
So if you couldn’t travel 7th between Elm and Race Friday evening thank Adam.

Parker Flats Friday

Yummie

GARLIC
All we had in the house was rawgoo sauce, and I just canʼt hack it so digging around I found some ground turkey and thought, hey how bad could it be? Especially with a ton of
GARLIC
I also managed to kill off the last two boxes of different type spaghetti. Then I found a half loaf of bread well on its way to staledom. BUT the secret to really awesome GARLIC bread is the staler the bread the better. Now anyone who knows 5chw4r7z knows I like to yank the toast out seconds before it bursts into flames, but since I was also sharing this with Ms. 5chw4r7z I had to pull it out of the oven well before the flames burst forth. Bummer, but it was GARLIC bread so it was still good.
Turkey meatsauce spaghetti, Wow, 4 or 5 cloves of GARLIC and I can cook anything awesome.
