Well if you get the time, you should stop and check them out. The Brazos Valley Cheese store is located at the Homestead Craft Village. It's a cute little place with all kinds of shops and BBQ. The cheese shop has lots of cheese samples and meats for making a charcuterie board. There are also crackers, fresh baguettes and more. The ladies at the cheese shop were very helpful and had all kinds of insights into the cheeses. Overall a great stop and the cheese was wonderful... it will make a nice addition to a wine country weekend!

I drank my first cup (double cup) to try and stave off those cramps. The tea was good tasting. I had two spasms in my feet but no cramps, and was not woke up during the night with cramps in my legs. Wow! I like his tea. I bought a tea for my daughters' migraines, but has not been tried yet.

As we wandered around Heritage Homestead, we eventually stumbled upon the Homestead Tea House and…read moreGritsmill, both conveniently located in the same building. The moment you step through the door, it's as if you've been transported back in time to a simpler era where life moved a little slower and everything was made with care. Side note: I completely regret not getting the names of the two young ladies working in the Tea House and the gentleman operating the Gritsmill. Rookie mistake on my part. But I digress. While chatting with the young ladies, they shared some fascinating history about the mill. They told me the gristmill itself was transported all the way from New Jersey to its current home. Even more impressive, the millstone still being used today to grind wheat into flour is over 200 years old and came from France. Talk about a piece of living history! The store itself is spotless, neatly organized, and exceptionally well maintained. The two young ladies were friendly, welcoming, and eager to answer questions and help however they could. Now for the important stuff--the goodies. They make their own cookies, including oatmeal and chocolate chip, along with fresh scones and pastries. Naturally, I exercised great self-control and bought one of each to enjoy later with a cup of coffee. It seemed like the responsible thing to do. From the Gritsmill, we picked up two bags of grits, some scone flour, and a small jar of peanut butter. Unfortunately, we were still stuffed from lunch and couldn't do the Tea House justice by enjoying a cup of tea. Sometimes life presents difficult challenges. Needless to say, we'll be returning, and I can hardly wait. If you find yourself at Heritage Homestead, be sure to stop by the Tea House and Gritsmill. Who knows, maybe I'll see you there.

Most are made on the premises, but a few are from other local farms.

Kanpai to Bon Bon Market!…read more Such a cute name for a mini Asian grocery store. Actually it's more like a boutique inside. They sell flowers and plants too! While bon bon means "chocolate covered candy", I didn't see any candy browsing through. That'd be nice if they sold some though. There are specialty products imported from various Asian countries. So if you love dining at those kind of restaurants, you may find your favorite ingredients or SAUCE here. I love sauce in my food. Did you know butter can be made from sesame? Well ther is such a thing! Like peanut and almond butter, "open sesame!" I know that quote isn't really relevant, but who's making a big deal about it? More so, I like their beer, wine and sake collections. I'm highly recommending the Kyoto Matcha IPA, an excellent quality beer. "Ipa ipa hooray!"

They tasted just like a tortilla chip though soooo... I think 2$ is more appropriate (menu also had GF at 4$ and then we were charged 5$ at the end in which I thought I'd be getting gluten free bread too but alas, the app was really really good - a friends complaint is that it could use more lemon flavor, I can see that too) I was also charged 4$ for my gluten free pasta, but the dish was so so so good. The creamy sauce was absolutely incredible. I had the shrimp scampi along with a blueberry syrup mocktail and I was completely satisfied. Also had a taste of the blueberry martini which was also very good. My friend had the lasagna which she rated at 3 stars and said it was overcooked but the sauce was good. My sister had the lobster ravioli and it was undercooked, too al dente for her liking and was dissatisfied as it was the most expensive thing on the menu. My sister would go back, my friend would not, and i definitely would. Service was very nice. I just looked at my receipt and there is a charge for "rustic bread" so I'm not sure what that is... did they charge us for both the GF crackers AND the bread that should have been included in the appetizer? That's also not cool.
