In these modern times, there aren’t as many reasons to hang our stockings “by the chimney with care.” That is until Christmastime arrives, and then we all want the biggest, grandest stocking we can find to be filled by Santa on Christmas Eve. How did that even become a thing? And what are some ideas for stocking stuffers? We’re glad you asked. ...read more

The cities of Winston and Salem, North Carolina, merged in 1913. Winston, a growing tobacco and textile town, also served as Forsyth County’s seat of government. Salem had been the center of culture and commerce for the area’s large Moravian population since the 18th century.

In the days after September 27, 2024, highway information signs were emblazoned with a message... Do Not Travel in Western North Carolina. That sounds ominous, but its message was not overstated. Because of the tireless work by state and federal employees, local folks, and thousands and thousands of volunteers, the mountains are OPEN – including two lanes of Interstate 40 – and we invite you to vacation... And volunteer! ...read more

Even before we bought the Mast General Store, we were taken by the beauty of Valle Crucis. We’ve heard people describe the drive out Broadstone Road as traveling through a time portal. In the 1970s, fields in the river bottoms would be filled with tobacco, cabbage, or high with hay to feed cattle that were grazing in the summer pasture. ...read more

Ah, the holidays. Perhaps a better reference would be Food-a-Paloosa! Think about it. Beginning at Thanksgiving and running through New Year’s Day (or Old Christmas on January 6 if you’re so inclined), can you name one gathering that does not have a food component? Office lunches, holiday open houses, neighborhood gatherings, Secret Santa get-togethers, Christmas parties... The list can be staggering. And that’s OK. Nothing brings a group together better than a good meal. So, let us prepare to lay a beautiful table and fill it with tasty fare from the best cooks around. ...read more

Last fall, a two-week tour of epic proportions crossed North Carolina. It began in the Pisgah National Forest, twisted through the Smoky Mountains, maneuvered up into the High Country, rolled down to the Foothills and Piedmont, and eventually reached the sandy plains of the coast. It stopped over in more than a dozen towns all across the Old North State, literally “from Murphy to Manteo.” ...read more

For many not so long ago, canning and freezing summer’s bounty was a lifeline. The beans, corn, squash, cucumbers, and whatever else was coming in from the garden weren’t meant just to be enjoyed as they are harvested but to put food on the table during the winter when “pickin’s were slim.” Now, canning or freezing is more of a tradition than a necessity, but there is still a certain sense of pride and accomplishment that goes along with it. ...read more
