Welcome to 2026! 2025 was literally a FLASH! I have no idea where it went. Pondering the new year and all that it brings, I think the only resolution that I’m making for myself is to be deliberate, to not let anything happen by happenstance. I’m not sure I’ve ever tried that before. So, here goes nothing6. One of the things I want to be deliberate about is being around people that truly care for others. Life can feel so focused on people or problems that at the end of the day add no value to the core dreams, hope, or goals that we carry in our guts, heart, or mind. It’s probably like anything; it is one step or decision at a time.

Join us New Years Day. Let’s be deliberate about bringing in 2026 with amazing people, delicious food, a heart of goodwill, and a spirit of celebration. We’d love to celebrate this new season of life with you. May 2026 bring you nothing but joy, love, and peace.

Here we are. Three more Fridays until Christmas. 2025 was a flash! Where did it go?

While we all know that these next three weeks will be jam packed with a flurry activity, make sure you take the time to inhale and soak up the real meaning of this season. It is definitely not about “stuff”. It’s about the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. What better way to share that and instill that knowledge than to have Santa read the REAL story of Christmas to our Littles. Planting the seed of seeing Santa read the biblical Christmas story is something they’ll remember all the days of their life.

Join us for a sweet evening of Hot Chocolate, a Christmas craft, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and a “SURPRISE” visit by Santa and then Santa’s reading of this story. The bonus is that Santa always stays for a visit and photos. It’s a beautiful evening that brings all of the best things of Christmas to one place.

It’s nearly impossible to believe that we are nearly closing in on the last few weeks of 2025. Where did this year go? We are not so sure that we can answer that question, but we do know that we are thankful that you were a part of our 2025. Thank you. Thank you for always supporting us. Just when we think you have every reason to take your business somewhere else, you are still right here cheering us on. Knowing that we are not a traditional restaurant, bakeshop, or catering company, please know, it is, always, our goal to bring you delicious and local food with great service, grace, and a grateful heart. We love what we do and we love sharing it with you.

With the holiday season here, we have two ways that we can share Thanksgiving with you. You may order from one of our Thanksgiving Dinner Packages, we’ll prep and cook it, you’ll pick it up on Wednesday with full reheating instructions, or you may make Thanksgiving Day Dinner Reservations with us at the restaurant. We’ll be serving from 12:30pm – 5pm on Thursday.

Whatever you and your family and friends do for your Thanksgiving Day, know we’ll be thinking of you, and we’ll always be appreciative of the opportunities to serve you.

Man, oh man, oh man!!! Where did this year go?! We truly are on the steps of the holiday season for 2025. I can barely get my head around it. We had so many changes this year, I don’t think I can remember them all. As always, some good, some bad, and some neither – just life.

Our Katie and Lanie are off to start their future. It was my complete joy to have them from nearly the beginning. Our five years together were filled with so many things, so many things I’ll never forget. And now, for our future… I have no idea what it holds. I’ve welcomed Sara and Alli to my little team. We are working our way through the learning process. We’ve stepped away from restaurant service for this brief moment, and just like nearly every past year, we move into heavy catering and our special events for the holiday season. We’ll host a few Big Brunch Saturdays or Sundays as our schedule allows. So, please stay tuned. We cannot wait to celebrate this season with you.

It’s incredible to think we are on the verge of September. Unbelievable. Stay close! We’ll be rolling our all of Fall and Holiday activities, events, and happenings. Our calendar is full of wonderful ways to celebrate this season. We hope you’ll join us.

One of our first events is something we traditionally do as a dinner, our yearly Diner en’ Blanc. It’s a grand celebration created in France to celebrate life, friendship, delicious food and drink, beautiful fashion, and community. It’s a fun time. Try something a little different this year if you’ve not experienced a Diner en’ Blanc. Join us a beautiful, afternoon Tea en’ Blanc. All the same rules apply. To participate you must wear all white attire. You’ll enjoy soothing White Tea and eat delicious White Themed Food and sit a beautifully set White Tablescape all while letting your COLORFUL PERSONALITY shine! It’s a lovely afternoon. Tickets are available for purchase now. Don’t hesitate. You don’t want to miss out.

WHAT FUN!!!!! Every once in a while, you just need a fun break. And here it is! Join us for an evening of FINGERPAINTING, FINGER-FOODS, GREAT WINE, AND FUN! Tickets are on sale now.

We are so lucky to have Christina May from The Beauty of Paint take us through an evening of fingerpainting beautiful Hydrangeas and we’ll provide delicious finger-foods and local wines. Come in out of the summer heat and join us.

Summer has landed on our door. Beat the heat and join us for our Thursday evening series of cooking classes. We’ll show you 20 Minute Meal to use up all of your purchases from our local Farmers Markets, cook up a delicious meal for you to share with someone special on a Picnic or a little Soiree, and finally, you’ll learn new cooking techniques and recipes for your holiday meals. Taking the Christmas in July class gives you time to practice your new skills and recipes so you’ll be holiday ready.

Seating is limited. Classes include all groceries, instruction, a bit of Wine or Beer, and snacks along the way. Join us for these fun-filled evenings. It’s a great way to beat the heat! Scan the QR Code (with the camera on your phone) next to the class you are wanting to attend.

OMG! Here comes summer! I’m not ready. I’m a fall and spring girl through and through. However, summer does bring me many delicious things from my garden that I love. So, I do my best to bare the heat summer also brings.

One way we manage summer at the restaurant is to stay very busy. It passes the time so much quicker. A lovely Summer Tea is a great way to kick off our summer happenings. It’s also such a great way to share our garden harvest. We use our Estate grown tomatoes, herbs, edible flowers, radishes, cucumbers, melons, and berries for our Tea Sandwiches, Biscuits, Scones, Jams and Spreads, and desserts. If you’ve not joined us at one of our Teas, this might the time for you to enjoy your first.

If you happen to be celebrating a birthday, anniversary, a bride, or a baby, our Teas make for a very special day. As always, seating is limited. Don’t hesitate to purchase your ticket. We can’t wait to celebrate summer with you.

It’s time for the most special Spring event, Easter. It’s such a time for renewal, weeding out the old so all of the new things in our lives may sprout. We are believers in the birth, life, death, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and the renewal in our hearts that that relationship brings. But, no matter what your beliefs are, Spring is a time of renewal for all. We pray for nothing but blessings and good things to come your way this Spring and that your fall harvest will be fruitful and plentiful.

We have lots going on at the restaurant this week with our local schools on break. On Tuesday, we open our kitchen for your Little Whisker to come and cook with us. We enjoy our time sharing our love of cooking and baking with our next generation. It’s a great few hours to see their developing minds work and see them grasp new kitchen concepts.

On Wednesday, we have our Little Whisker’s Spring Break Tea. It gives your Little a chance to learn table manners and enjoy something new and different. We have small snack plates available for the adults, but this event is really about catering to your Little’s.

Easter, a joyous celebration, is Sunday! We are celebrating the day with two seatings of Brunch, 8:30AM and 10:30AM, and then we will celebrate the rest of the day with our families. We still have some seating available. We’d be HOPPY to serve you.

The two flyers below are what we have available left for this special week. We hope to see you. If we do not, we pray that you have a wonderful Easter and that you are able to celebrate with those you love.
