Bringing the fancy home
1. If you are missing King Bullfrog’s Friday Family Hour performances, you’ll leap for joy about this. The musical duo returns today after a month of socially distant hibernation. Kids and families, fans and friends, and new friends can join them on the remote lilypad for music this afternoon! All proceeds will support No Kid Hungry’s effort to make sure kids who depended on school meals don’t go hungry now that schools are closed. Enjoy the musical fun from 4-4:30pm (and don’t let the before 5pm time stop you from starting happy hour… it’s Friday!). Suggested donation $20 — less is groovy, more is groovier.
2. We can’t travel right now, but kids of all ages can still explore the world with Little Passports, hands-on educational activities and global adventures, delivered to them every month!
3. The annual Georgetown French Market, which always takes place this time of year, has gone virtual! Starting today through May 8, more than 15 locally-owned boutiques, cafés, and galleries along the charming Book Hill corridor of Wisconsin Avenue will offer online retail and restaurant promotions, plus virtual story time and music for children, and a French baking demonstration. Visit the website for more details and schedules.
4. Are you celebrating a special occasion while social distancing? Eater has a great round-up of DC’s fanciest takeout meals. We celebrated our anniversary earlier this week with a fantastic dinner from Masseria that my mom ordered for all of us (view it all here).
5. I’m doing “drank my body weight in quarantinis.” And you? 😂
