Last day

...before the kids start coming back home. :)  Aaron will be home from camp tomorrow where his band has been playing all week.  Rachel will be home on Saturday after a candy-fueled week at Grandma's.  Dusty took today off of work and we headed to Cincinnati.

First stop the Cincinnati Art Museum.  A nice museum and free which is even better.  Most interesting to me was an exhibit of instruments from around the world from the last 400 years.  We spent some time wandering around and enjoying the fact that the air conditioning was on.

Dusty takes his art seriously!

Next stop...IKEA

Didn't purchase a lot, but it's always fun to stroll through.  

Next we headed to Jungle Jim's.  I can't fully describe what this place is except a grocery store with a huge amount of international foods and odd or unique items....in every variety imaginable.  Some of the odd and unique...

Quail eggs

Some kind of green bean frozen popsicle thingy

Yummy flakes anyone?  Shrimp flavor of course!

And even the normal stuff came in every variety imaginable.  This is one row of the hot sauces.  They were alphabetized.  This is only M-Z

And one of my favorites...olives as far as the eye can see. :)
 (This photo is especially for Paul since I know how much he loves these!)

Next time I'll have to look up some unique recipes so I have an idea of what to buy.  A fun day with my favorite person.
