Centered on Virginia Route 55 (John Marshall Highway) and Virginia Route 245 (Old Tavern Road) 


                                                         
       The historic railroad house has undergone an extensive renovation in 2015 - and is now transformed into a restaurant emphasizing fresh and local ingredients with a market featuring unique treasures.                                               


  On  Monday , 11/23/15 , we celebrated Rhonda's birthday by going to a place of her choice to eat lunch. 




She chose the Front  Porch Market and Grill because she heard it was new and others had enjoyed their meal there.
It was an easy to find place and easy to park on street.

We were greeted with smiles and  got to choose upstairs or downstairs. We let the waitress decide. So we went upstairs to a nice area with rustic decor .  Plenty of room and comfortable.
As you see below -- brown paper and crayons over a table cloth made our day !!

We ordered and had Rhonda open her gift ! 
Can you tell if she is enjoying her gift ??





Didn't take long to order our lunch and wasn't a long wait for the meal!




Presentation was very nice . Colorful dishes !!
Sandwiches were delicious, potato salad and coleslaw were wonderful and chips made fresh !!
For dessert -- Rhonda chose warm brownie with vanilla ice cream -- OH MY -- loved it!! 
We made Rhonda share, by the way !


If you get the opportunity, go have a great meal and enjoy the 

 Front Porch !

Our video will let you know how much we enjoyed it! 

 WARNING the video you are about to see may make you laugh !!

 I had to keep saying the word FRESH because Kelly didn't like us using the same words all the time! So as the oldest sister , I had to do my duty and tease the baby sister !!~~Cathy

***UPDATED 1/27/24*** I stumbled upon this Birthday Cake Box for the needy on Pinterest and thought what a fabulous idea.  It’s super quick & easy to make and donate to the food pantry/people in need.  The  Dollar Tree  and  Walmart have the  cake mixes and frosting for just over $1 and lots of paper products and inexpensive party supplies. For just under $10 you can make them for your local shelter or food pantry. Kids get a kick out of helping and it also makes a great service project for scout groups and church ministry groups. Here's what you need to make a Birthday Cake Box: 9x13 Disposable aluminum foil pan with a lid, it's helpful to have the lid for packaging and delivering purposes. 1 box of cake mix, any flavor you like  1 can of lemon-lime soda (in case the recipient doesn’t have eggs or oil) Birthday candles You can add birthday napkins, candles, a banner, etc. Did you know that you can make a delicious cake out of nothing but a box of ...

Product Review of Nature's Nectar Coconut Water

***UPDATED 7/8/23*** Nature's Nectar Pure Coconut Water from ALDI didn't suit our fancy. We all agreed there's way to much sodium taste in the coconut water and as you get older, as we three are, we have to watch our sodium intake. As we taste-tested the water, the decision was it wasn't good to just drink but we did, however, agree that it might make a great addition to making smoothies.  How about making this delicious smoothie:  Ingredients            Coconut water, regular or flavored 2 bananas 2 mangos 1 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen) 1/2 cup Greek yogurt 2 tablespoons honey Directions Fill ice trays with the coconut water and freeze until solid. Place the fruit, honey, and 12 to 14 coconut water-flavored ice cubes into a blender and blend until smooth. Serve immediately. Recipe courtesy Bobby Flay Here's the nutritional ...
