Sponsored Columbus Symphony 🎵
The premiere of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 1 was by all accounts a disaster due to a sub-par performance and harsh public criticism, and the symphony was not performed again in the composer’s lifetime. This powerful and expressive work endured and now occupies its rightful place in the orchestral canon and you can see it performed by the Columbus Symphony next month. Tickets start at $10. 

Hello, Thursday! Chelsea here.

There’s no better way to start a day than with French Toast. It takes the best parts of a variety of breakfast dishes and combines them all into one perfect dish. There are so many spots around Columbus that are serving up yummy, memorable French toast and I find myself suddenly reconsidering my morning plans. Maybe instead of work, I just need a French toast morning? Maybe we all just need a French toast morning. 😂

🛍 This Popular Shop Is Moving Into The Former Rag-O-Rama Space In Clintonville
When Rag-O-Rama closed suddenly at the beginning of the year, saying that people were shocked would be an understatement. Although the secondhand clothing store is long gone, the space has already found a new tenant, and it’s a place that people who love to shop local will be very excited about.
