Boozy Milkshakes, Burgers, and Fries, Oh My! Belly Burger Is Open! 🍔

Sponsored by Christmas With The Ohio Presidents: If you're as obsessed with epic Christmas trees as I am you need to check out the new Christmas With The Ohio Presidents exhibit at Decorative Arts Center of Ohio. Curator George Johnson will decorate eight Christmas trees in the time period of each of the Ohio presidents with period lights, ornaments, and seasonal decorations that will transport you to the White House during Christmastime of the Ohio presidents. More info here! 🎄🎄

Happy Thursday! Chelsea here.

Is it just me or is December flying by? The craziest thing about it is that it doesn't seem like it's slowing down anytime soon. Usually, I feel like the city takes this time to sort of coast towards the new year, but not 2019. New restaurants are opening (seemingly) every day and one I've been hoping to get to since last week is Belly Burger. If you haven't had the chance to swing into downtown's newest burger joint, you're missing out.

The 5 Best Places to Buy an Ugly Sweater in Columbus

🎄

I'm in full search mode for the perfect ugly sweater. I already have one that's pretty fantastic, but I got invited to THREE ugly sweater parties this year, so I've got to have some variety. Luckily, Leanne did all the work on this one and I just have to shop until I drop.

Oh Sheetz! An Iconic Convenience Store Is Coming To Columbus And People Are Freaking Out

⛽️

It's sort of weird to think that a gas station can have a dedicated fan following. But if you've ever been to a Sheetz, there's a really good chance that you absolutely loved it. If you've been missing this iconic place, you only have to wait a little bit longer.

Talking Points ❤️

Bye, Bye Boris

📺

Sinclair Broadcast Group is axing the "must-run" segments of one Trump ally Boris Epshteyn. These segments appeared on all 193 stations owned by Sinclair,

including those in Columbus

. The company says the commentary segments are being discarded in order to commit more time to investigative journalism.

It's Heisman Time

🏈

Two Buckeyes were honored with Heisman nominations this year. QB Justin Fields and Defensive End Chase Young are both being considered for the award. If either win, they'd go on to join the Ohio State University's six previous winners, Les Horvath, Vic Janowicz, Howard Cassady, Archie Griffin, Eddie George, and Troy Smith.

Good luck, guys!
