The Hour is Happy

Actually three of them are, at three of our stores, every weekday. And we’re waiving our flag about it.

So anytime you see the French flag posted outside of our Polk, Noe or Fillmore stores, then you can get happy too, because inside you’ll find $5 glasses of wine, $3.50 bottles of Kronenburg (yum) and cheese plates for $8. Plus, we’ve got a whole new punch card for Happy Hour partakers. If you come in and buy a happy hour beverage, you get a punch. Once you have nine, we’re buying your tenth. Go ahead, you can smile.

So come check it out, Monday through Friday, 3pm-6pm and put a little something in your stomach to start the night off right. We’ll be very Happy to see you.

Mom


“Thanks, Mom!” Uttered often in acceptance speeches, while holding a statuette.


“Hi, Mom!” Mouthed emphatically in the background behind reporters in crowded, on-location news spots.

“MOM!” Shouted from the top of the stairs, before the words, “do you know where my blue sweater is?!?”

“mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom, mom….” Said by five year olds in department stores, until they are answered, with a usually patient, “what?”

Of all of the many applications of this beloved palindrome, our favorite is, “I love you, Mom.” And so for all of the moms out there who just plain rock, thanks for being fabulously patient and kind…..even after that time when we played with a ball inside and it broke that vase…

Seriously, you’re the butter on our baguette.
