If you love exquisite needlepoint then this might be the place for you. Here you pic a canvas and…read morethen pic your threads. No pre-packed canvas kits here, this is all fancy needlepoint items. The space is expansive as the rooms have racks of yarn and thread of colors everywhere. More than I have ever seen before in this area. Lots of canvases on the wall and on tables for you to look thru. There is a dog on premises which is the door greeter and quite friendly. During my visit the owner was a bit preoccupied and simply asked if I needed any help. She was busy doing busy stuff instead of being more engaging with me. The postman came in during my visit and I think she spoke more to him than to me. I personally engaged more with the dog since it was a lot more friendlier than the owner. The canvases are pricey here and I would suspect that the yarns are also more on the premium price side. I would have given the review a 4 star had the owner been a little more customer appreciative.

Trying to find a cooking class in the area was challenging. I was looking for a hands on class but…read morefor the weekend that I wanted, nothing was available. I settled on a demonstration class with Chef Thompson. The menu for that Saturday night was "Low Country Cuisine", which included a roasted butternut squash salad with goat cheese, smoked bacon, and pickled red onions; Mayport shrimp and Carolina clam perlou; and a winter citrus "french toast" with pear coulis and limoncello whipped cream. Given that my friend is allergic to seafood, I asked about a beef or chicken option substitute and the chef was very accommodating! He added skirt steak to the menu. When we arrived around 5:30 pm for the Saturday class, a group of three was already there. The chef offered wine and water as we settled into the counter-height directors chairs to watch him prepare a delicious meal. Chef Bill is a natural teacher. He seamlessly cooked, talked about the food and the inspiration behind some of the dishes, and interacted with us. The smells, the tastes, and the whiffs of food were incredible! He definitely knows what he's doing! About 2 hours later, we were ready to eat. Chef Thompson set up a buffet for us and we were encouraged to fill our plates and to get seconds. There was more than enough food. This was definitely a five star experience but my OCD with germs drops it down to four stars. I'd have just liked to see a little more hand washing as he was touching his face and other items around the kitchen as he was cooking. But, that was a minor issue and one that I'm sure only I noticed. If you're looking for a little something different for a dinner date or for an activity with friends, check out this culinary institute. You'll be in for a delicious meal that night and with the recipes and tips that you'll get, you can recreate the meal at home too.

She's only been hunting them for over a year- I called her and texted her pictures to verify it was exactly what she wanted! I found a giant sun cookie cutter, a Florida cutter, train, moons and more. Plus I snagged some spigot handles too (for future art projects).

A week later, I wrote through PayPal and Lollipops just cancelled the order even though I clearly stated I wanted the fabric. So, I definitely DO NOT recommend any online purchases.
