Quick note from me this week because we’ve got something fun cooking. I picked up a couple of gift cards for Leatherby’s Creamery in Folsom, and we’re running a little giveaway over on Instagram. To jump in, make sure you’re following us there, since that’s where the game, rules, and entries will all live.

The goal is simple: bring more of our newsletter friends into the Instagram mix and spark some low-stakes community fun. We’ll pick two winners and announce them soon on the EDH Insider Instagram, so come hang out with us in the comments.
In today’s Scoop:
✨ Dinner, Magic & Cozy Nights
🥋 Little Kicks, Big Confidence
✈️ Thunderbirds Take 2026 Sky

Intimate Supper Club With Real Magic

Looking for dinner that actually feels like an event? Mystique Dining in Historic Folsom turns your night out into a cozy, candlelit show. In an intimate room, you settle in for a multi course, chef driven meal while a close up magician performs just steps away.
With raves for tender prime rib, warm service, and special occasion vibes, it is a fun pick for Sutter Street date nights and celebrations.

Big Confidence in Small Kicks, Right Here

West Coast Martial Arts EDH feels like the kind of place where kids grow up, not just level up. Parents talk about shy 3 and 4 year olds turning into focused, confident little leaders, thanks to Gary, Tami, and their patient team.
Classes mix kicks, drills, and life lessons, with plenty of smiles on the mat. It’s structured, positive, and family-centered, so kids burn energy while learning respect, self-defense, and perseverance.
Charcuterie carts that completely steal the show

If you’ve ever wished someone would just show up and make your party look instantly more impressive, Cheese and Charm is that friend. Their mobile charcuterie setups feel thoughtful and elegant, with curated cheeses, meats, fruits, and little extras that make guests hover a bit longer than they meant to.
It’s all customized to your event, and subscribers get 15% off when they mention EDH Insider.
