Down Home Character at Floozies Pie Shop, Louisa

If ever there was destination pie, Floozie’s Pie Shop in Louisa is it.

This cute little shop could be plucked straight from Mayberry or Stars Hollow with its kitschy ceramic decor, funky furnishings, bright walls, and plucky café personality.

We were on our way to Fredericksburg from Staunton, slowly passing through Charlottesville and Keswick on the way, and so took the Louisa Road as an alternative backroad that we hadn’t driven in a long while.

So when we got to the mostly sleepy county seat at Louisa, we decided to walk around, check out the historic markers, see the old jail, and check out the shops. That’s where we also took in Hey Gorgeous Boutique, a ladies consignment shop that I also reviewed.

Sugared up

We don’t usually eat dessert in the middle of the morning but Floozie’s look and feel was too irresistible to pass up so we splurged.

I had the Chocolate Bourban Pecan Pie and hubby had the Mixed Berry Pie. I also went for a nice Southern Iced Tea. Clearly this was going to mean a sugar high, a rarity for me, but hey, this was a getaway.

A getaway with pie!

Both pieces were fabulous and hard to choose; we had to pass on apple, chocolate cream, berry rhubarb, and heaven only knows what else was filling that pie case with temptations untold.

Daytime charm

Apparently Floozie’s also serves breakfast and lunch and if the plates coming out are a good signal, the burgers looked awesome.

I checked out the breakfast menu — always my fave — and it looked like a standard selection of simple down home goodies.

If I lived nearer, I’d try ’em one morning or for lunch, but I’d encourage them to add collards to the sides, and maybe up the Virginia and Southern menu vibe a bit — no need to be standard (Greek Salad, Club Sandwich) when you can be a local standout (Chicken & Waffles, Peanut Soup, Brunswick Stew?).

But I can say the pie is worth the drive, especially if you scare up some other things to do in the area — Civil War attractions, BBQ in Gordonsville, going to or from C-Ville.

I mean a totally homey pie shop in the middle of a small town? It’s like Twin Peaks without the creepiness but with whipped cream on top!

A truly lovely vintage Indienne style fabric based A truly lovely vintage Indienne style fabric based on historic examples. Produced in the 1970s, possibly during the Colonial revival of the Bicentennial era.

Designed by Faye Burgos for Marcus Brothers Textiles, Inc., this piece is an UNGLAZED cotton chintz in a weight suitable for quilting. Can be used for totes or pillows, too, but would benefit in either case from some interfacing and lining. Nice weight for a small set of café curtains, a Roman shade, or lampshade. Very grandmillennial/granny chic.

Absolutely stunning colors and bold design with rich detail. The background off-white has a scalloped design of tiny dots and flowers on which the larger floral design sits; this contrasts with the mango-colored vertical stripes and their complimentary red and blue floral designs. Classic!

$49/yard with 2 continuous yards available. Free shipping in the US. Find it in our #etsyshop Lady Virginia Vintage Fabrics. Link in bio.

Made in 1988, this Greeff Fabrics piece featuring Made in 1988, this Greeff Fabrics piece featuring Joseph Pickett-like primitive Colonial American era homes, farms, and trees, is currently fashioned into a rod-pocket curtain sized for a small window. If you deconstruct it you'll gain about 1" at the top and bottom each, and 1" on one side (the other side has the selvage with printed fabric information and date).

Simple Salt Box, Georgian, and Federal-era homes dot an idyllic rural landscape of ponds, rolling hills, and soaring graceful trees, some seeming to be palmettos suggesting the landscape is South Carolina. Joseph Pickett worked primarily in Pennsylvania, but this hokmage-like piece clearly makes nods to his style.

Lovely little addition to a rustic, primitive, 18th century, or colonial-era decorated home. Could be used as sewn as a tiny curtain, or small fabric flourish on a bathroom sink bottom or furniture piece, or deconstruct and upcycle into pillow fronts, small totes, quilting pieces, appliqué, mixed media fiber arts, or other projects.

25” w x 33” long w/ hemming on all sides. Can be deconstructed for other purposes. $89 w/ free shipping in the US. Link in bio.

Just listed: Fresh and bold, this 1990s graphic bl Just listed: Fresh and bold, this 1990s graphic black and white floral print has a blockprint look (the selvage doesn't say if it was hand or screen printed, but the negative-positive space in the floral design lends itself to a block print style). Statement making!

Three large size scraps available with enough in each for pillow/tote fronts etc. or use for appliqué, slow sewing, framing, etc.
