Hello, Friday! Chelsea here.

The return of Ohio State Football last weekend has guaranteed that we all have at least one thing to do every weekend for the foreseeable future. But having friends and family over to the house can get tiresome. If you want to skip the food prep and all of the clean-up, you should probably consider heading up to one of the best dining deals in town. When the game is on, all-you-can-eat pizza and wings are on the menu, friends!

🌼 Autumn Party Vibes Are In Full Swing At This 8-Weekend Fall Fest
The weather will feel very fall-like this weekend, so why not take advantage of it? There’s a ton going on around town (which you can see below) but one thing you won’t want to miss is this epic multi-week festival at Timbuk Farms. This weekend’s theme is Fall Flowers!

📅 The Best Things To Do In Columbus This Weekend
Still working on your weekend plans, Columbus? Let us make a few suggestions. There’s a lot going on around town, so have some fun!
