After, we had stuffed ourselves full of praline bacon, cajun sausage & peppers, and apple fritters, we carefully got back into the Vettes and headed off toward Greenwood, SC. There was an ad in the newspaper the day before about a new Jackson and Perkins outlet store that had just opened in Greenwood in the Piedmont Plaza (old Wal-mart location). I believe the road is Hwy. 72 bypass in Greenwood, SC. Truthfully, I was expecting some little dinky store but I was WRONG! It was a large store stuffed with great deals on garden related tools and decor!! You would not believe the stuff all of us managed to cram into the back of our Corvettes! Of course, I could have done a lot more damage if I had had my trusty Chevy Silverado that day! I did mangage to knock out some Christmas gifts and get some cool stuff for us at the same time.
On the way home, we stopped at a local dairy in search of some really good eggnog to take home for Christmas. The Happy Cow Creamery on McElvey Rd. in Pelzer, SC, really came through! They were happy to give us samples of what was the best "purchased" eggnog I have ever had! The group had fun shopping in their little store and we bought wonderful cheeses and butter. They carry a lot of local South Carolina specialties and other neat stuff. Visit their website at http://www.happycowcreamery.com/ You won't be sorry!
