I bought a dozen sticky buns for a friend who lives in nearby Cullman, and she (my friend in…read moreCullman) shared them with her husband and children. (They all raved about them that morning at breakfast!) Michelle herself waited on me, and talked my husband (a man who does NOT need the carbs!) into one of her gooey cinnamon rolls. :) Clean, cute, well lighted venue. We hope to visit again for gifts/goodies on our next trip to see my friend and her family in Cullman.

Talk about finding a bakery that actually bakes bread for take out sale in Jasper was a real chore…read more But after walking into Main Street Market I was greeted by the friendly staff. When I asked about the bread the kitchen hustled up a sample, after tasting I was sold. Their selection of baked goodies is like wow. Not to mention all the other goodies they have. Folks this is a real bakery on site and you can see into the kitchen where the food is prepared.

Food and people are amazing. Activities for the kids and adults.read more

It's Glasnost-to-Go: I found something NEW - a sure magnet for lovers of all things Baltic and…read morebeyond. It's the ST. NICHOLAS RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH--ANNUAL RUSSIAN/SLAVIC FOOD FESTIVAL! Having found it, I went...and was glad, although I took the trip alone. It was a pleasant drive with a delicious ending. It's held each year on the first Saturday - Sunday of November (times are 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. and Noon - 5 p.m., respectively) in the Parish Hall. [It began in 1981 as a bake sale and until recently it somehow, somewhere, some way eluded me.] Just got back, but it's still going strong tomorrow! (On Sundays, visitors can see a bit of Russian dancing on the grounds, located about 30 minutes northwest of Birmingham...I was sorry I missed the dancers, but my schedule was wild that week). Following what is estimated as a couple months' prep, the ladies of the "Sisterhood of St. Olga" - some of whom you may espy in native peasant dresses - roll out trays full of Ukrainian-Slovakian delights. These bonnes bouches de babushka are based on vintage recipes bequeathed by relatives and friends who immigrated to the area, drawn by potential employ at the local coal mines. Comestibles included beet-infused borscht, shschi (Russian soldiers' cabbage/meat soup - VERY GOOD), pirozhki (buns filled with various ingredients), blini (pancakes of a sort), pelmeni (filled dumplings), and kolbasa, which you may recognize under its Polish name, kielbasa. I chose the grand-slam "Imperial Platter," which boasted halupki (stuffed cabbage), kolbasa, kraut, pirozhki, halushki (dumplings & cabbage), cucumber salad, and pigachi for only $14. I LOVED IT... Other, smaller platters, including a vegetarian selection, are priced accordingly, and many of the pastries (Imperial squares, medivnyk, Russian teacakes, pascha, and bulochki) are individually priced. The smaller pastries run $2, while the larger breads are at $5. Very reasonable! The bakery area, itself, is reason enough to go. Plan to bring extra money just for this. I did, and I was broke...but I took an armload home, with my favorite a toss-up between the nut-filled, Slovakian rozky and the kolach, a rolled bread that, per my choice, was stuffed with almonds... YUMMM. Onsite you'll discover a store known as the Beriozka, where you can find imported tchotchkes (e.g. matryoshkas, or nesting dolls; iconography; hand-painted ornaments) and other more practical imports, such as books and woolen shawls, from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, and the Republic of Moldova. I picked up one of the Russian cookbooks and will be utilizing it soonly... Call Father Benedict or Matushka Brigid Davis at the numbers above to get more info. Then it's time to dust off your samovar and head to St. Nick's!

Maybe it's the name, but I'm pretty sure it's the legend that makes it a must-stop for me on my way to Smith Lake. This combination gas station-grocery store-video rental facility-restaurant used to be host to "The Challenge." Yes, THE challenge, where a contestant had to consume a massive steak, complete with all the fixins, to earn his or her spot on the wall of fame. Sadly, the original Bug Tussle burned down years ago, and that tradition went down with the walls. Now, the bigger, warehouse style facility has a more spacious grocery section and is host to an array of colorful locals. If you need gas, a snack, or some good country sightseeing, visit the Bug Tussle- my favorite place in Bremen (ok it's the only place, but still...)
