Under Brown Mountain Lights the Beast of Blandenboro wanders this magical land where lighthouses shine on kingdoms only accessible by ferries. A Lost Colony of legends and pirates revealed in historical sites and majestic mountains with views that make us weep. The home of handmade sculptures and scrumptious cuisine. North Carolina leaves this long-time writer and artist breathless with endless surprises, including the unlikely warmth a winter walk on the beach can bring.
For an enchanting themed cafe in North Carolina, visit this English-style eatery and tea room in Hendersonville. Everywhere you look in The Book & Bee Cafe and Tea brings a feast to the eyes while awaiting a delicious, thoughtfully crafted meal. Colorful treats and cutout sandwiches are delivered on tiered serving trays against a backdrop of books, and elegant teapots with matching cups and saucers. Celebrations are announced on Facebook, such as Winnie The Pooh Day and a Happy Birthday to A.A. Milne and J. R. R. Tolkien, who by the way has an entire room dedicated to himself and C. S. Lewis! Let’s take a closer look at this elaborately decorated and whimsical spot.
Even from the outside, the English elements shine in bright red.
We enjoy this hearty comfort food with a piping hot creamy filling of chicken, peas, carrots, corn, and onions, topped with a homemade, flaky pastry crust.
A slice of Hummingbird Cake for dessert goes nicely with a warm pot of the Silly Old Bear tea.
Reserve an afternoon tea that comes with three pretty tiers of finger sandwiches; scones with jam, lemon curd, and Devonshire cream; and other sweet treats.
Cheers to this special cafe that serves brunch, lunch, and afternoon tea.
