What do you know about trashcan theft?
It was stolen once after the trash people came last Thursday, but they’ve stolen our replacement one today […] I’m just wanting to know if anyone else is experiencing this and if there’s extra 709 trash bins hanging around the hill. A pick up truck with four or five trash bins was seen by my neighbor today.

Proper Pie just over a month out, launches Kickstarter
The “coming soon” to Broad Street Proper Pie says that they are just over a month away from opening the doors, and have launched a Kickstarter fundraising campaign:
Some of you out there might have heard of us, but for those that haven’t, or don’t know what we consider to be a proper pie; it is a delicious savory-style pie common in regions of the world like New Zealand and Australia. It’s a hand-sized, hand-held, handmade meat and/or veggie pie that can serve as a snack or a meal. Our goal is to bring that kind of pie to this part of the world, Richmond, Virginia.
It’s a crucial time and our goal for opening is just over a month away. There are still a few more major purchases to make, and commercial kitchen equipment is certainly not cheap. Plus, we need the most important part: ingredients! So we are reaching out to ask for your help.
