Electricians
by Sherry Goldman 26 Mar '25

26 Mar '25

Please recommend a licensed electrician who is reasonably priced, no drama, and sticks to the estimate agreed upon. We are considering replacing knob and tube wiring, over time (one room or one floor at a time). We cannot afford to do the whole house at once. Sherry Goldman 412-215-9631

Plasterer recommendations?
by Emma Hance 26 Mar '25

26 Mar '25

Does anyone have recommendations for (or against) a plasterer that does well with old HP houses? We're looking to do have a few rooms skim coated, but the walls will need some patching and repair before skimming, as some of the walls haven't been touched in a verrrrrrry long time. And insight would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Emma

Korean Food, Saturday Mornings in East Liberty
by Jeff Guerrero 25 Mar '25

25 Mar '25

For fans of homemade Korean food, especially kimchi, I recommend visiting YeGa Kimchi on Saturday mornings at the indoor farmer's market behind Home Depot: https://farmersmarketcooperativeofeastliberty.com She typically sells napa, radish, and cucumber kimchi, as well as sauces like ready to use gochujang. And she usually offers one or more prepared foods including kimbap, tteokbokki, kimchi-pancakes, soups, and hotteok. You can contact her for pre-orders at https://www.yegakimchi.com If you remember the sorely missed annual Korean Food Bazaar in the church on Aiken, she was one of the organizers.

by Jaspar Leahy 25 Mar '25

25 Mar '25

Hello HP neighbor! You are invited to join us at the next few Highland Park People’s Suppers <https://thepeoplessupper.org/>! This dinner and conversation are not a space where we can necessarily *solve* the challenges facing our community or country BUT it is somewhere where we hope each person can enter, feel a sense of welcome, feel able to be their authentic self, respect others’ beliefs even if they are different from their own, and engage in constructive, open-minded dialogue. Our next two dinners will be on: · *Thursday, April 3* · *Monday, May 19* Both will be from 6:30 – 8:30pm (details to be shared upon RSVP - this is a wheelchair accessible location) and we invite you to bring a potluck dish to share. Please let us know if you can attend and if you are bringing any friends or neighbors. We hope the circle continues to widen, dinner after dinner, and are looking forward to seeing you in April! In community, Jaspar Leahy

FOUND ORANGE TABBY CAT
by Rachel Kudrick 25 Mar '25

25 Mar '25

Orange cat with white markings. Trapped early February, believing it was feral, but it's warming up much more quickly than a feral would. Unsure of gender. Haven't been able to build up THAT much trust yet... Also have not checked for chip for the same reason. Trapped in 900 block of highview Street. Call or text with description or picture to claim. 412-251-9759 Rachel
