As temperatures hopefully moderate from last month’s snow and fridge temperatures, it is a time to focus on the warmth of things from the heart. As Valentine’s Day approaches, what better way to show your love to your sweetheart than to spend it in Monterey.

Just this month, a couple of familiar faces will have new names and either novel places or newly remodeled spaces. We cannot wait to tell you!

   HERE’S THE BUZZ…

THE LOVEY BREW will become the BEE ROCK BREW, and Expresso Bar and BBQ.

Located at 201 N Chestnut St.. Already well known for their coffees, teas, specialty sandwiches and meals, they will still have grab-and-go breakfast and lunch items. The slow-cooked BBQ will start around March 1. As the BBQ starts coming off the smoker, they will have an expanded seating area. If you are in a hurry, they will soon be installing a drive-through. Now, doesn’t that make your mouth water? It does ours. Check their Facebook page for updates. Better yet, so see them.

HELLO MARKET BLESSINGS

While we won’t see you for a couple of weeks, know we’ll miss you and we can’t wait to bring you along for this new, exciting transition for our business!
We’ll be working hard making a BIG move to a beautiful, historic building just up the street! That’s right! We’re moving, but keep your eyes peeled for updates on the transition and all of the joy & surprises we can’t wait to bring to Downtown Monterey!
Until then, we covet your prayers for a smooth few weeks as we settle into our new location.

And don’t forget to say “Be my Valentine” with fabulous meals, gifts and gift certificates from other local business such as Ben Anna’s, The French Market, authentic Los Agaves Mexican , Sapori di Napoli Uralian restaurants, or Reba’s Flowers. They are all conveniently located in Downtown Monterey.

   OLD TIMEY WEATHER LORE: “The first thunder you hear in FEBRUARY is the last frost date in MAY.” Now, that is what the old folks say. We’re just telling you.
