Delmonte Market is this cute market that is a great one-stop-shop for gifts, local foods and more.

They have all kinds of local food and goodies available.

And coffee!

These kinds of things are always fun for gifts.


And a whole space dedicated to whimsical outdoor decorations.

And will ya look at that! This will always be surprising and amazing to me.

Duke's Steakhouse is a local institution in Elkins and has been on my list since a friend from the town insisted I make my way there.

When I found myself in the area, I stopped by to treat myself.

The menu features steak but also is known for their filet sandwich. I wanted to start with the steak first to see what we were working with.

The restaurant is traditional and reminds me of those old-school steakhouses that are associated with fancy celebrations in small towns. I'm sure lots of memories have been made here. Have you been?

Bobbie's is a gas station just outside of Elkins in Beverly that also serves as a small restaurant that serves up some really good pepperoni rolls. A while ago, a friend had told me I HAD to try their "ramparoni" rolls. And, now they're in season.

Walking into Bobbie's, there's a counter where folks were dutifully sorting and packaging pepperoni rolls. Others are located in the cooler.

Tons of various pepperoni rolls baked fresh every day sorted into baggies with green tabs.

Bobbies has 11 different kinds of pepperoni rolls: Ramps & hot pepper cheese, ramps & cheddar cheese, nacho cheese, pizza roll, mozzarella, hot pepper cheese, banana peppers, cheddar cheese, cheese & jalapenos, just pepperoni, then there's the "surprise" which is whatever Bobbie feels like making that day. Sometimes she said she could add hot dog chili. On this day, it was extra pepperoni and cheese.

Have you ever heard of a heavenwich from Lil Bit of Heaven Cupcakes? It's homemade cookies with buttercream in between. This WV-themed dessert had escaped me until recently. But I had to try it because it is ~Almost Heaven~. This was a peanut butter chocolate one!
