This week in the Cleveland Park Listserv
One of the best parts of our neighborhood is the small town atmosphere that the Cleveland Park Listserv helps to create. Each Friday we will pull out some (possibly out of context) gems from the Listserv to share with our neighbors and friends. We hope these outtakes of the neighborhood news will get you ready for another great weekend in Cleveland Park!

DUH!
Walking in the neighborhood on this lovely afternoon, I noticed a few recycling bins with big pieces of styrofoam. It can’t be recycled.
Good to know! Adding it to the list…
I took out dinner from [Hawthorn Market] last night and thought the food was fantastic. They have breakfast foods, coffee, sandwiches and a wide array of juices.

Yellow perch, a small treasure

““I’m the unhealthiest person,” 48-year-old Andrea Thimm proclaimed during a visit to Hawthorne Homemade last week. But her presence at the new rustic market and juice bar near her house in Cleveland Park is an attempt to change that.
