Oh, Deals. (I'm going to refrain from using the stupid dollar sign S. Who do you think you are,…read moreDeals - Ke$ha?!) When I was in high school, I would bring all of my friends/dates/random strangers here, we would pick out a themed set of costume items and props, and then go to the photobooth in the mall. Magical. When I was in college, I would arrange $5-10 gift exchanges with all of my friends, wherein the majority of items - from pointless to disgusting to offensive to hilarious - would come from Deals. Magical. When I graduated college, and was unemployed and poor, I bought food and hygiene products and gloves and other such crap from deals. Oh wait, ha, that's NOW! Not-so-much-magical-but-practical. As far as dollar stores go, Deals is the bees knees, whatever the hell that means.

This store, Deals in Town n Country, usually has some pretty decent prices and edibles that will…read morelast a while. Unfortunately, their customer service doesn't quite live up to those prices. They seem to have a habit of having a lower price marked on items on the shopping racks, but then charging a much higher price at the registers. Adding insult to injury, upon request that you want the item voided, both the cashier and the store manager, who came off as having bit of a rude attitude about me wanting to return something, simply claim that they cannot do that, pretty much leaving you stuck with undesired items and pushing you back the amount that they charged for them. As someone who has been going to stores such as Deals for at least 20 years, this sounded particularly odd to me. In any case, I strongly hope that they do not continue with such practices as businesses have been known to go out of business and/or get sued for such things. It would be a terrible shame to see such a thing happen to a store like T&C Deals simply due to avarice and a desire rip off people.

Anyone who loves The Beatles and photography will enjoy the current exhibit on display at the…read moreSchumacher Gallery. I love both, so I was drawn here like a moth to a flame. Eighty four black and white photographs of John, Paul, George and Ringo's first American visit in 1964. These photographs are high quality, high resolution photographs from Life magazine photographer, Bill Eppridge and the CBS Television archives. You'll see the Fab Four on stage during the Ed Sullivan show, their hotel room reading the newspaper and other candid shots. One of my favorites showed them having fun on the beach with their fans. They really looked like they were enjoying themselves. If this appeals to you, you'll want to move fast. Note that the exhibition will be closed during Capital's Spring Break but will reopen on March 3, 2014 and finish it's run on March 22, 2014. So there's a small window of opportunity to see this exhibit. * Hours are limited so check for times on Capital University's website. * Admission is free.

This places is located at 212 Kelton Ave in Columbus, OH at the Station at Trolley District. You can honestly find everything here from great beers, varied food choices, and shopping. I have came here for Creole2Geaux, Koso, The Railhouse, and the Bearded Baker (now in Bexley) and grab a plant at the Plant Gays. Love that this place has everything including parking. I had nothing but great food experiences here and the service is always great and the ambiance is relaxed. Take your time shopping and dining! 5 stars.

Let Jess Tell It…read more East Market | Franklin Park, Columbus Price per person: $15-30 Wait time for a table: No table service -- grab a seat wherever you can Noise level: Moderate to loud (it's a food hall, so expect a buzz) Seating options: Communal tables, bar seating, high-tops, outdoor patio Vegetarian options: Yes -- several stalls offer veggie choices Dietary restrictions: Vendor-dependent; some gluten-free options available Parking: Free lot + street parking (fills quickly on weekends or event days) Kid-friendly: Yes, but keep an eye on them -- very open and active Wheelchair accessible: Yes, wide walkways & accessible seating East Market stays booked and busy in the best way -- a true Columbus-style food hall where you can wander, browse, and let your appetite pick the direction. Even though I grabbed my actual meal next door at Local Cantina Trolley Barn, I still walked through to get the vibe, take in the energy, and check out who's serving what. Vendors you'll spot inside: * Creole 2 Geaux -- Cajun/Creole comfort dishes * Just Chicken -- crispy chicken sandwiches & tenders * Koso -- ramen, noodles, and rice bowls * The Pitt BBQ -- smoked meats and sides * Hisham's Bakery -- Middle Eastern pastries * Reverie -- cocktails & spirits * The Plant Gays, Poke Bowl, and dessert spots like The Cheesecake Girl (Perfect for groups that can't agree on anything.) Good-to-know for first-timers: * There's no single line -- each vendor has its own counter. * You'll order your food, grab your tray, and then find a seat anywhere in the building. * The bar inside stays active, especially evenings and weekends. * On busy nights, seats turn over fast but not instantly -- be ready to do a little "table scouting." * The building itself is renovated with a historic trolley barn feel -- lots of natural light and exposed brick. * Great place to bring out-of-towners: you can sample multiple Columbus spots without driving all over the city. Even without eating inside this time, it reminded me why East Market works: It solves the "What are we eating?" standoff better than almost anywhere else in the city. Save this if you want a go-to Columbus spot with options, drinks, and an easy setup for groups. Question for the community: What vendor are you loyal to in here? I'll try them on my next actual eating visit.

I love to support local businesses as they work very hard on the items they make. I bought a cute pair of paw print earrings since I've asked hubby for a pair and he didn't deliver. So onto the earrings, everything is handmade so it's great from the necklaces to earrings, you know it's made with local pride. I also got a block with the Ohio symbol and home written inside as it's very appropriate for my household. Maybe I should have gotten the Oxford one too since my hubby went to Miami, but I'll definitely be back soon for more stuff! I love supporting local businesses and giving back to the community that works so hard!
