Thanks to all who passed on the rumor from UrbanTurf last night saying that Call Your Mother could be coming to the former Little Red Fox space (5035 Connecticut Ave, NW.) I’ve been sitting on this scuttlebutt since Friday because I’ve been trying to get confirmation from Call Your Mother (in the past they’ve been quick to respond to my queries.) My guess is that, if true, Call Your Mother will not announce until Little Red Fox’s last day on December 23rd so as not to overshadow their last days. Alas, since I keep getting messages from folks asking – I will also share the potentially fantastic yet at the same time truly bittersweet news. The sadness about Little Red Fox closing is still too fresh to be truly overjoyed. But, if true, when the dust settles, a good bagel sandwich should help ease the pain a bit. Read More

“Dear PoPville,

Uptown Market just announced their closing. A loss for the neighborhood (they have a nice outdoor dining area), but not completely surprising. The restaurant/gourmet market combo didn’t work for Soapstone Market, and that was pre-pandemic.” Read More

Thanks to AJ for sending:

“I saw three fish (one squished) on Connecticut Ave today around 3:30pm in front of Zips Dry Cleaners and Burger King. Where could they they have come from?”

Oddly this is not the first random fish found I’ve been sent recently. I think a few years folks speculated they were dropped by birds maybe? Of course that could explain one fish, but 2-3 fish is odd indeed…
