Had a great margarita pizza today! Thanks! 😋
Best pizza I’ve had in a while!! If you’re ever in the area you’ll regret not stopping by here for their amazing wood burning oven baked pizza!!! They also have amazing home made artisan breads and many more a baked goods!! 🔥🪵🍕😋
The rhododendron are now (finally) blooming atop #roanmountain. Located just 30 minutes from #bannerelk and #beechmtn, these are the largest #rhododendron gardens in the US.
Grab a pastry or pizza from Smoky Mountain Bakers and head up for an amazing view!
What are your holiday hours? I need some pizza and sugar cookies!!
Sweet sunflower shot from Crystal Decker. These are located at Smoky Mountain Bakers in Roan Mountain!
And then owner makes a fool of himself, cursing & acting like an idiot; complaining about "mom's in the hospital " yet was having band practice. Will never be recommended again, nor have another dime of mine!!!
Terrible service today! 8/9 Brought my cousin & his wife here today after bragging about you all. My wife & I received our pizza(after45 mins), but my cuz was told theirs would be another 25-30 minutes later, b/c some tickets got dropped in the floor!!?? And no apology, nor offer of discount. Pathetic!
Are you open for breakfast yet
So excited to pick up some delicious pizza and cookies today as a treat.
Tennessee Endangered Species
An endangered species is a species which has been categorized as very likely to become extinct in the near future".
**** Therefore I feel compelled to pontificate on a Tennessee endangered species I experienced having breakfast this morning at a wonderful funky bakery in Roan Mountain Tennessee.
Actually there were four (4) species sitting at an adjoining table. They were a family of homo sapiens....Father aged 45 .... Mother about the same. Daughter 12....Son believed to be 14. They were armed with forks, knives and spoons. They were feeding on an assortment of chicken eggs and animal parts.
Their demeanor enticed the curiosity of nearby homo sapiens. Then all hell broke loose at the adjoining tables as these homo sapiens began to speak. Not into handheld devices .....BUT TO EACH OTHER. Ohhhhh...The Horrors....They laughed and giggled. They smiled. Folks at other tables grabbed their devices and snapped pictures. The spectacle lasted for almost an hour....Yes....this species kept on doing theses strange things.....They kept talking .....to one another...Mom to Son. Dad to Daughter. Sister to Brother ..... And then they left a nice tip and departed in their Jeep into the Tennessee hills.
I desperately wanted to follow, to document their life in written word, but decided to let them live out their lives in their private mountain sanctuary.
May this fine family live in harmony with one another. May corporate missionaries never find their private space. May they never be corrupted by the "device evils" of today. May they prosper and multiply. And...... God Willing, may Miss Mary and I be blessed to sit at their table once again.....In Roan Mountain Tennessee.
