I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
My husband is a self-described nerd and, with a Master’s in Popular Culture from Bowling Green State University, he’s especially into the cultural significance of toys. (Or so he says… I think he just wants an excuse to buy our kids vintage action figures…) He’s especially into Kenner, a now-retired toy company founded in Cincinnati, Ohio, with a resume that includes several highly recognizable toys and merch from the original “Star Wars,” “Jurassic Park,” and “Batman” franchises. For him, nothing beats a day perusing a vintage toy store, and there’s one in particular he could happily spend hours browsing. In Fairfield, Ohio, The Toy Department is known for its extensive selection of toys and collectibles, all affordably priced so toy lovers of all ages can buy, collect, and play to their heart’s content.
Have you visited The Toy Department before? Whether you’re a vintage toy nerd, casual collector, or simply in the market for a unique and nostalgic gift, this story store in Fairfield, Ohio, is worth checking out!
Just down the road from The Toy Department, there’s an international grocery store that provides an equally engaging shopping experience, complete with 1,500 varieties of hot sauce and 1,400 kinds of cheese!
