04.15.11

A few weeks ago, Paula and Ankur came down from Chicago to spend a weekend in Cincy with us.  They actually had been here one time before, having spent the first night in our apartment with us back in July on their way to Yellowstone.  This time, however, we did not force them to sleep on an air mattress or sit on the floor!  The weather wasn't great (welcome to Spring in the Midwest) but it was warmer than Chicago so we did our fair share of bragging and hanging out outside.  After discovering my new favorite brunch place on Saturday (Anabel's in Mount Lookout) we walked over to Dutch's and spent the afternoon catching up over bocce ball and craft beer!  Paula moved here from Cologne, Germany about a year ago and she was thrilled to find that they had Kolsch, on-tap no less!  We walked over to dinner and finally made our way home in the rain, full and slightly damp, finishing the day with a showing of Black Swan.  Paula and I did a decent amount of hiding our eyes but, overall, I think I was expecting a much creepier movie.  Regardless of the dancing scandal, that Natalie Portman does crazy better than anyone I've seen.

Sunday morning at Findlay Market 
We love, love, love having visitors and had such a good time showing them our little town.  Can't wait for our next trip to Chicago, Udanis!
