The town of Weaverville, North Carolina, is just a short pleasant drive across the mountains from Johnson City.
Mr. Mickey and I especially enjoy the Stoney Knob Cafe, one of several excellent restaurants there. They offer a menu of American, Greek, and European cuisine.
They serve the most awesome focaccia bread and olive oil dip before dinner. Supreme olive oil is poured over fresh herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, and feta. We could make a meal from just that and a glass of wine. It really is over the top good!
I haven't worn these Vince Camuto shoes very much this year, so I wanted to style an outfit around them for our Saturday date night before summer slips away from us.
Weaverville is a surprising little town with sidewalk cafes, art galleries, gift shops, excellent pottery galleries, and the Well-Bred Bakery & Cafe, where we stopped in to pick up a fresh-baked loaf of wheat bread.
We have already picked out the next restaurant we will visit in Weaverville. We have heard great things about The Glass Onion, and their menu looked really interesting.
Voted one of the top 200 Salons in America, Aabani Salon is also located here in Weaverville.
There was still plenty of time after our meal to take the ten-minute drive into downtown Asheville. We had an after-dinner Scotch and water at a sidewalk cafe where we sat for more than an hour watching all the people passing by. We also really enjoyed visiting with two lovely women sitting at the table next to us. We make new friends wherever we go!
The lightweight jacket and matching tank are both from Chico's. The side zip ankle pants are from Talbots. The clutch and Oscar de la Renta sunglasses are from Stein Mart. The awesome coral cuff was a gift from my sweet friend Lois.
