Shop The Fox For Last Minute Holiday Gifts

Shop The Fox

If you live in the Starland district, then you are probably already a frequent visitor to Foxy Loxy. It’s a coffee shop but more. They serve tacos, kolaches, and in the evening there’s beer and wine. In addition, Foxy Loxy hosts Vinyl Night, comedy show and live music in the courtyard. While sipping coffee in Foxy Loxy, you are amazed to the well-curated print art. A few months ago, Foxy Loxy opened up a retail shop next door, Shop The Fox, that features accoutrements for coffee lovers as well as great gifts like candles, soap, tea towels and more. About 50% of the merchandise is from either Savannah area and Southern artisans including Methane Studios.

Shop The Fox is a great place for shopping for thoughtful last minute holiday gifts. They are open until 8PM on December 23rd, but not open on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.

My First Savannah Visitor: RKB

Rachel and Nichelle

If you have known me for awhile, then you probably also know RKB (AKA Rachel Kramer Bussel). Rachel and I have been friends for over 11 years. We started a blog (Cupcakes Take The Cake) together. We hosted cupcake meetups. We went on a trip to Martha’s Vineyard.

I don’t believe in having only ONE best friend. Instead, I have a second family of people I am not related that I love. Rachel is part of that family.

Over a short three days, we hit some of my favorite haunts here in Savannah. We had tacos at Foxy Loxy, sliders at Sly’s Sliders, and sweets at Back In The Day Bakery. We also went to the Juliette Gordon Low House to learn about the founder of Girl Scouts and had dinner at The Grey.

Rachel and her Fans

I organized a reading for Rachel at Back In The Day Bakery.  Owner Cheryl Day was very generous in letting a small group of Rachel’s avid fans sit and listen to her read.  Three women drove up from Florida and one drove in from Brunswick, Georgia. We listened to erotica and ate tiny cupcakes.  It was a throwback to my live in New York.
