A Quick Trip to Charleston

Charleston, S.C. was the welcoming familiarity of home in a city yet to be discovered. I could have spent weeks strolling every cobblestone street perfumed with jasmine blossoms and every inch of white, sandy beach, but with only two days to explore, I found ways to experience both the rich, colonial history and natural charm of this low country beaut. And the best part was the splurge of fun while barely denting the bank account.

The Butcher and the Baker

The new spring season welcomes warmer days, blossoming trees and fresh produce sprouting from the soil. Fayetteville's The Butcher and Baker is a one stop shop offering local commodities, grass fed organic meat and for the first time this year, a plethora of locally grown, organic vegetables which will arrive to the store fresh from the ground. And let me tell you, there is no place like it in Cumberland county.
