Thrift Stores
No one wants to give away her favorite thrift spots, but some secrets are meant to be shared. Take the 4th Street Boutique, for instance.

Fourth St., downtown (513) 651-3372, 4thstreetboutique.com; 5400 Red Bank Rd., Madisonville, (513) 271-7977, 7hills.org/podium/default.aspx?t=46052; 3994 Spring Grove Ave., Northside, (513) 541-6999, casablancavintage.com

Saved by the Deli

Initially, I thought the text I had just received from a friend indicated that a local sports bar was serving chopped liver. Awesome chopped liver! Rascals’! he exclaimed. I responded immediately. WTH? Rascals’? Where is that?
