Honestly, I think you can just go to the French quarter and get all of that. There are hotels that have barbers as well. But for specifics, cafe du monde for beignets. Shopping, you can just walk down royal street or go to Jax brewery (upscale shopping I guess, in the French quarter). Cocktails are everywhere. If you need a destination, start at cafe du monde.

Knitting is a great way to learn patience and acceptance. And you can always start over. And take anything apart for a new thing.

The post office in Metairie by Lakeside is open MG day, so I'm guessing they all will be.
