SUMMARY:Explorer Little Bo
DESCRIPTION:Craving a taste of the bohemian area of Paris—Montmartre? Come explore Little Bo along 13th Street in Omaha\, all the while practicing your French! We’ll stop by for a coffee\, take in a super cool gift shop\, and land at one of the coolest new wine shops in Paris—er\, we mean\, OMAHA. \n\nWe’ll visit three locations as follows:\n2pm-2:30pmArchetype Coffee1419 S 13th StOmaha\n\n2:40-3pmDusk Goods & Gifts1234 13th St. Suite 202Omaha\n\n3:10-?iDLE Wine & Goods/Lumen Beer1433 S. 13th St.Omaha\n\nIf you’ve been to iDLE you know how great it is—the owner\, Ivy\, is doing a great job finding interesting wines and snacks—including many wonderful French and other European wines. iDLE feels like one of those super local wine shops you might discover in Paris—where you won’t find any tourists.\n\nAdditionally\, if you’re into beer\, Lumen may be some of the best locally brewed beer going right now. You can easily move between both shops as they share a common hallway and you can easily bring beer into the wine shop and vice versa.\n\nAll three stops are within close proximity. However\, if you’re not up for walking\, simply meet us at one of the stops according the above schedule.\nHope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Celebrate Bastille Day with Back to Basics
DESCRIPTION:It’s Bastille Day and what better way to celebrate than by practicing and improving your French? Oh\, and telling us about your favorite culinary delight? \nIf you’re just starting out in French—or if you’re wanting to improve on what you already know—prepare a few sentences in French that’s all about your favorite meal. Tell us what your favorite dish is\, the basic ingredients\, and how it’s made\, en français\, bien sûr. Reading from notes is just fine. And if you don’t have a favorite meal\, then Ham & Eggs will do!
