Wendi's Weekend Trips & Whatnot

Travel. Food. Fun.

Music, Food, Fun & Friends at Fiore’s

By

My husband, Bobby and I have driven by Fiore's in Wooster for years on our way to RKO. We've even gone by when they have had bands playing on the patio, but we've never stopped. That is until Friday, July 28, when a Pat Benatar tribute band was playing. The name of the band is Invincible: A Tribute to Pat Benatar and the '80s. Bobby loves to listen to live music. I love '80s music. The weather was great, even a little cool for a July evening. The band was awesome. Bobby had such a good time … [Read more...]

Summer, Music (Man), and Dancing 

By

It always is a little frustrating to me when people complain about small towns or rural counties and it being boring. Those are the same people who think living in the city with all the people, noise and traffic, give them an edge because "there's so much culture and so much to do." I'll admit I used to be one of "those" people. I couldn't wait to get out of my home town, but I was young and a little dumb.

Holcomb’s Popcorn, Nuts & Ice Cream Now in Wooster

By

On the Saturday of my birthday week, my husband, Bobby, introduced me to a new ice cream place in Wooster.  This was not an official birthday celebration event, as both he and I were done celebrating. He was done on Thursday night; I was done on Saturday morning. However, whenever ice cream is involved, I really don't need a reason to get it. I think ice cream is one of the main food groups, at least it is in my house and chocolate is another! Holcomb's Classics Gourmet Popcorn and Nuts, … [Read more...]

Ever since my wife, Wendi, and I purchased a new Broil King grill from Home Appliance, with two Ohio locations in Lodi and Brunswick, we have been grilling out a lot more, and I have been on a grilled pizza kick, having made four grilled pizzas within the span of a week. However, I have been wanting to try Bosco's Pizza Kitchen again, and so Wendi and I ordered a pizza and wings for carryout. Longtime readers of this blog will know I like pizza, and I like Neapolitan-style pizza, the kind … [Read more...]

Staycation: Grillin’ and Chillin’ at Casa Kendle in Wooster

By

My vacation officially started Monday. I had no big plans for the week, just go through all of my magic that resides in storage cubes, draws, shelves, boxes, cases and whatnot. However, a text from friend and co-worker Jeanine got my mind thinking. We generally trade off getting Dunkin' Donuts for each other. She sent me a text informing me she almost got me an iced coffee, but remembered I had vacation. We exchanged some texts, but it wasn't until later I saw her last one. Then it dawned on me, … [Read more...]
