Organized antique shop...what a concept! Her book prices were very very reasonable-four dollars each for brand new books, and her used ones were in great shape. The lure was the table on the sidewalk with one dollar books. When I was perusing them I realized that the buyer seemed to have a real eye for books-she had a lot of popular high quality literature, and not a lot of junk. The owner was great to talk to, gave me some book club recs and some ideas for where to eat lunch. Wisconsin. Books. River Road. Sunny Sunday in April. A treat of a day that was meant to be enjoyed! I didn't look too hard at the antiques, because I was too intrigued with the books I wanted to buy. I was impressed with some of her antique linens however...

Bestie adventures in Red Wing just wouldn't be complete without a visit to the local bookstore. We…read moreheard great things about this one, so we had to check it out. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted by a gentleman (I wish I'd gotten his name!) who immediately made us feel welcome. He was friendly, clearly passionate about books, and incredibly knowledgeable. He asked if it was our first time visiting, and when we said yes, he surprised us with an amazing gesture....a free book, each, tailored to our favorite genres. We were blown away by the generosity and thoughtfulness. The store itself is a treasure. Books galore, neatly organized by genre, and the place is not super larger, but makes you just want to look at it all. They also have a great selection of puzzles throughout. It's obvious that this place is loved -- both by the people who work there and those who visit. I purchased one book and I felt the price was reasonable. I can't wait to come back to Red Wing and when I do, I think another stop at this charming bookstore is on the list. Highly recommend to any fellow book lovers!

"We have victuals to delight the palate." (Star Trek, The Squire of Gothos)…read more Chef's kiss to The Palate, a French-inspired space so special that it deserves more than lip service. I like to support this shop along with all the other wonderfully unique stores in downtown Stockholm to keep the area thriving...especially since they don't get much traffic in colder months. It's always fun to browse The Palate's curated selection of wines from small, sustainable vineyards; beautiful French porcelain; freshly baked treats; and international pantry of gourmet pastas, oils, and seasonings. Even better, enjoy a charcuterie board with a glass of wine on the back porch, or sign up for a cooking classes with Judy Krohn. Everything in this store is top notch, but one of most unique products is the Laudable Linens from France, custom cut to your table's exact measurements. The cloth has a nano-treatment that prevents stains--it really works! I've been left tongue-tied having seen demonstrations in the shop where wine was intentionally spilled and left sitting on the cloth for a while, then wiped off completely like it was never there. An elastic edge can also be added to keep your tablecloth in place, which is especially handy for outdoor tables. If you're driving through Stockholm, Wisconsin, you simply must visit The Palate for snacks and wine before continuing your adventures along the "Great River Road"--resistance is futile!! Live long and prosper!
