I love our Pendleton Businesses

This past Monday, I tagged along with some friends as we went around visiting businesses on the square to tell them about Fall Festival, the Historic House Tour, the Scarecrow Contest and the ad for Fall Festival. We started out with grits, toast and coffee at the Village Baker and I must say that they make the best grits ever. Their grits are even better than my husband's and that is saying a lot. We got ourselves organized and heading out on our mission. First stop was Still On The Square and we went down the list telling Cindy everything she needed to know about Fall Festival but we didn't leave without making some purchases. I love that Cindy is helping to promote local authors in her shop and was glad to see she had Jimmy Manley's New Book.
Next we went to Ammons Portrait Studio. Oh, he does have some beautiful photography in his studio and we enjoyed looking at all of it. We visited with Jim at Bailes Cobbler Shop and he sure has a great business going on there. He is known to be do the best shoe repair in the upstate.
Charlie and Josh both were in at Blueridge Antiques and Colonial Square Antiques so we got to get in some browsing and visiting while we gave them all the information. I went on up to Main Street Designs because I remember that I needed to make a hair appointment and meantime hubby calls and wants to meet for lunch. Jean and Jo continued on our mission and excused me for the rest of the day. They said they had a great time and I was sorry that I wasn't with them. Maybe next time!

Lunch at Brandini's and a Tour of Liberty Hall Inn in Pendleton SC

Oh, what a wonderful lunch my friend and I had at our first time at Brandini's.  We both ordered the Brandini's Stack and it was delicious.  We enjoyed the staff who were so nice and welcoming and we even got to take a tour of Liberty Hall Inn.  Roger at Southeastern Garden Center has it decorated so beautifully for Christmas.
Brandi Flores makes these Mosaic Tile Pieces herself.  They are so lovely and can be seen throughout the Inn.  Here is one of a table she made:

Whim Wham Vapes Opening in Pendleton SC Saturday December 3, 2011

 
 
A Note from Owner Sheila Woods:
E Cigs defined from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "An electronic cigarette, or e-cigarette, is an electrical device that simulates the act of tobacco smoking by producing an inhaled mist bearing the physical sensation, appearance, and often the flavor and nicotine content of inhaled tobacco smoke; though without its odor, and intended to omit its health risks. The device uses heat (or in some cases, ultrasonics) to vaporize a propylene glycol- or glycerin-based liquid solution into an aerosol mist, similar to the way a nebulizer or humidifier vaporizes solutions for inhalation". A person that uses the E Cig is usually refered to as a "vaper.
 
 
After 35 years of smoking the traditional tobacco cigarettes, I made the switch to Electronic Cigarettes just this past August, and have never looked back! I am so convinced that the E Cig can and does help people like me to kick the tobacco habit, that I decided to invest and open my own E Cig shop. Some may think that the name I picked is kind of odd, but I chose to name my business “Whim Wham Vapes” because a whim wham is “a whimsical object or device especially of ornament or dress; or fancy object”. I think E Cigs are fanciful, unusual, fantastic and can even sometimes be playful!
