As a going-away present to remember our wonderful 2+ years in Cincy by, a sweet friend of Ted’s from CCM sent Ted to Rochester with a goody bag full with housewarming items for us – all of which were made in Cincinnati by Cincinnati companies! After 9 months of living in Rochester, It was so nice to unwrap each item and be reminded of our time in a city I truly loved.
Our Cincy items gift bag included Puffs tissues, wine from Valley Vineyards (an awesome winery and grill-your-own-steak place in the country just outside the city), Dawn dish soap, Schiavone’s marinara sauce, Kroger Private Selections stone ground mustard, Montgomery Inn BBQ sauce, and La Rosas pizza sauce and Italian dressing. Practical, thoughtful, and amazing! Thanks Patti & Todd!
When Ted and his dad arrived in Rochester with the truck and trailer loaded with the last of our belongings on Monday evening, they had one more Cincinnati surprise as well. 10 whole pints of Cincinnati’s own amazing Graeter’s ice cream (stashed in coolers with dry ice to survive the 9.5 hour drive)!!!
I opened the freezer and screamed.
We are so loved! Cincinnati, we can’t wait to come visit you!
