We don'\;t want to steal you away from your BBQ on the 4th\, so we decided to move it up a day.
So\, join is on Thursday evening for some cool downtown evening shopping and dining.

• einmaleins and Chris Hyde invite you to discover the amazing world of knives.
Pocket Knives we’ve had since we were Kids\, Kitchen Knives we care about since the Food Network and we might even be able to distinguish between a Santuko and a Chefs Knife.
But\, what is a Mushroom Knife? Or what are the benefits of carbon steel over stainless…?
Get answers to this and experience more at einmaleins.
As usual we will provide the obligatory refreshments and will have some band-aids ready - just in case.
