Wish I had taken more photos (it's such an adorable place). But we got talking and this is the one shot that surprised me in the roll.

For those in Cincinnati: we were at the Bonbonerie.

Celebration!

Chocolate rum ball, originally uploaded by juliecinci.

Margaret graduated (finished that thesis!!) and we went out for tea and treats. The tea room was closed and the bakery almost closed so we scooted in for rum balls, mini key lime pie, chocolate and peanut butter bars, lemonade cookies, French apple tarts and so on, and ate them at the little table featured in the blog entry above.

Two theologues maxing out on sweets. Doesn't get much better. :)

Cornholing is the game of choice for Cincinnati picnics. We were at a graduation party yesterday and the middle aged men got beat by the latter day teens.

In which I didn't get beat...
