We had a lot to celebrate tonight!! Today was one of the most exciting days of our lives! Sales were incredible, and we now have four days off to relax and enjoy.
We finished up at Great Harvest and headed home to quickly change and walk to Seamane and Rob’s for a Thanksgiving Eve get-together.
We nibbled on cheeses and crackers and lots of baby carrots and cherry tomatoes and dips for dinner
And deviled eggs!
And pretty much married their bar 
S+R know how to stock one! I had a ton of variety tonight, but small sips of each.
Full Sail Session Fest [loved it, especially with brie!]
Champagne and cherry
Dogfish Chocolate Vodka!? Just a sip – not a vodka girl, but interesting nonetheless.
But I AM a bourbon girl!
A tiny Manhattan
We tasted a few of Rob’s favorites – Green Flash Hop Head Red and Stoudt’s Double IPA.
But I still bow to the Dogfish 90
Ended the night with a small pour of this really awesome red – Seventy Five Wine Company’s “The Sum” Red Blend that a friend brought to the party. I really don’t have a favorite grape – I couldn’t choose! But I <3 red blends, and this hit the spot!
Matt and I brought a box of Great Harvest sweets from the store – which I devoured at the end of the night with a couple of Seamane’s version of Better-Than-Crack brownies. They really are..
This week has been crazy but in a very fun way!

Congrats on a successful day- enjoy all the celebrations- u deserve it!
Looks like a ton of good food + drinks + company!
Chocolate Vodka??? Sounds oddly good. Man, I would have been hammered if I went to that party. Such a great bar going on there.
Congrats to the awesome sales and the well deserved 4 days off.
Little bits of everything make the best meals
One of the most exciting days of your lives? Wow, it must have been a good one.
I thought you were going to announce a baby-on-the-way
Looks like a fab day! That sure is a well stocked bar!
All looks wonderful
Glad it was a great day for you!
Congrats on all of the sales! Enjoy your days off sounds like they are very well deserved!
Congrats guys!!! It must be SUCH a great feeling to make some records.
Looks like great fun! Happy Thanksgiving!
Congratulations again! Looks like a lovely party!
So wait, the bakery is closed Friday & Saturday? Wow. We are small business owners and we are only off today. We don’t open early tomorrow morning, but we are open regular hours. We are also open extra hours on Saturday since it’s been labeled “Small Business Saturday”. Your missing out on two great days of sales..
Looks like a great start to a great holiday weekend!
Congrats on the successful week! I hope you two enjoy your weekend off. You deserve this break!
I think it’s great that you are taking 4 days off! I’s well deserved and have a great weekend!
Will you shut down over Christmas as well? Enjoy your days off!
Those brownies seriously do look better than crack. Looks like such a fun night!
Did you know that Oprah listed Frog Hollow’s pears on her “favorite things” list this year?! When I saw that I caved in ordered a few boxes for gift giving plus one for us. So excited for their arrival!
All the best to you and Matt and your families this Thanksgiving, Kath. Thank you for providing three doses of fun each day
Sorry. I totally laughed at what Kath said. Cville is really pro family so there are lots of small businesses that are closed for a few days so people can enjoy the time off. It is *her* business after all & I respect the decision to be closed for some rest time.
Have a great holiday with your fam Kath & do not overdo it on the pumpkin ohs like I have
Congratulations on doing so well at the store, and enjoy these four days off! Happy Thanksgiving!
Oh that cheese looks FAB!! What a great idea to have Thanksgiving Eve party
C’mon guys, this is Thanksgiving. Please stop bickering and go enjoy some sweet potatoes.
