I have to pop out of the shop this afternoon so hubs will be here. But I'm not leaving him empty handed. He'll love these Texas-made beef sticks. Come share one with him while I'm away!

There’s just something about this time of year that makes us crave pasta nights on the patio. Fresh basil, garden tomatoes, warm evenings, and wines that are a little lighter, a little sweeter, and made for lingering conversations. Simply delicious. 🍝☀️🍷

Our bronze cut pastas are perfect for a homemade lemon pesto cream sauce — the texture holds every silky bite beautifully. Pair it with a chilled Moscato D’Asti, add a couple good friends, and you’ve got the kind of evening people remember long after the plates are cleared.

Patio season in Texas never lasts quite long enough, so consider this your sign to slow down and celebrate the freshness of the season while you can.

Trust us on this one: full belly, big smile, happy heart.

I can't decide which new goodie I love best this week.

These beach towels are quick-dry, weigh almost nothing, won't fill your beach bag, and don't hold dirt or sand. Flop down on one of these at Lake Bastrop, Port A, the coasts of the Mediterranean, or just your buddy's pool and congratulate yourself on your excellent taste. 💦

Speaking of taste...fresh mozzarella and burrata just arrived. Pair with fresh basil, the first of those garden tomatoes, and a glass of prosecco. 🍅 🥂

Summer never looked or tasted so good! 🌞

Favor to ask...for those of you who have joined us in the new store in Smithville and enjoyed our wine and craft beer selections, snacks, home decor, and overall charm, would you take a few minutes to leave us a review on Yelp (and Google too if you use that tool). I'd be forever grateful! Trying to get our name out there and share what's special about Smithville with more and more visitors. Big, big thanks for helping us spread the word!
