Wine & Words

On April 24, 2002 a new store was born in the resurrected shell of the old Windley/willis grocery store in Belhaven, NC. With the unusual name of "Wine & Words," the little store sold a small selection of wines not available anywhere else in the region, as well as coffees and teas, used books and the arts and crafts productions of a number of local artists.

That was eight years ago, and we now have a large selection of unique wines, cheeses from around the world, specialty foods and Cook's Helpers, as well as many shelves full of discount priced books and CD's.

Saturday evening is the Belhaven Christmas parade, beginning at 5:30. You can park at Wine & Words/The Back Bay Cafe and walk a block to see the parade and hear the special music. Then come on back to warm up and have a lovely dinner. Some folks have already reserved tables, so call us soon and let us know you're coming.

Friday is the opening of the Beaufort County Arts Council's Holiday Arts & Crafts Show at the Washington Civic Center from noon until 8:00.

And at 8:00 at the Turnage Theater, there's a Heart of the City Holiday Concert by the Beaufort County Choral Society with the River City Ringers.
