Please help me with a Thanksgiving cocktail suggestion. Every year we host Parisians friends to introduce our American culinary tradition & I like to intruduce traditional cocktails with a "twist". Maybe an Apple cider sangria or cranberry margarita, other suggestions?

The school day ends, safety begins; Paris has a layered approach to protect children; wide sidewalks in front, protective metal barriers along the street, bollards, crossing guards, well marked & restricted school traffic zones.

Friends gather for a morning coffee at the start of the day all over Paris at cafés, coffee shops, & brasseries. The terrace is the "3rd space" aka public meeting spot of Parisians, every group has a favorite spot, city is community.

I finally attended an Opera at Palais Garnier; The Marriage of Figaro. The famous Marc Chagall ceiling is spectacular. No phones allowed during the performance.

I stopped by Paris Photo 2025 at the Grand Palais. It was visual overload; lots of good, lots of bad, but very little originality.

Life on the street. Every morning, Paris cafes legally set up for "en terrace" sidewalk seating, creating all year dynamic & interactive community 3rd spaces for friends, neighbors, & visitors. Streets (& sidewalks) are for people.
