“Dear PoPville,

They closed in March and I was worried that they had decided to close permanently, so I was hoping you could publicize their reopening! They serve very tasty Ethiopian food, and while their stellar cocktails aren’t on their takeout menu, they do have wine and beer. Here’s their website.”

“Dear PoPville,

I bought this candle at the Columbia Heights farmers market late last summer. It was a great candle and I’d like to get another but have no idea who the vendor is. Hoping your readers may know.”
