The Pioneer Woman in Pawhuska, OK

If you know anything about me, I love to cook & I love good food. I am a big fan of Food Network & one of the shows I watch is Ree Drummond’s The Pioneer Woman.

In 2011, I read her biography before I even knew who Ree Drummond was. I loved the cover & wanted to known the story of how this New York City girl fell for an Oklahoma cowboy.

For those of you not familiar with her, Ree Drummond has got it going on! She is a best-selling author, chef and entrepreneur. She has a line of kitchen merchandise at Walmart and her own clothing line.

She has breathed new life into downtown Pawhuska, Oklahoma. The Pioneer Woman Mercantile has a general store, restaurant & bakery. She also has the Boarding House hotel, P-Town Pizza, Charlie’s Sweet Shop & a clothing store.

I had so much fun just browsing around the Mercantile. Here are a few of my favorites:

Shopping made me hungry, so lunch was next on the agenda. I had a salad at the Mercantile Restaurant.

I was too full for dessert, so I checked out what they had in the bakery. I brought home a croissant for breakfast, but think I am going to have to go back again!

If you haven’t read one of Ree’s books, I would highly recommend them. She has cookbooks, a couple of biographies and children’s books. Check them out at your local library or on Amazon.

For the last 20 years, I worked in public library systems around the Charlotte & Myrtle Beach areas. I met some amazing people and made great friends along the way. Follow along on my adventures as I travel the US. I hope that our paths will cross one day! View more posts

Thanks for sharing, she is one of my favorites! But I didn’t know about all the children’s books she has written. I am traveling right along with you. But miss you at the library.
