Christmas at the Capital: A Field Trip to Frankfort, Kentucky
Episode 210
Tuesday, 16 December, 2025
Looking for your own small-town, Hallmark Christmas experience? Look no further than historic Frankfort, Kentucky’s state capital! That’s where Candy and Ashley headed for an impromptu field trip last month, and they share their adventures in this fun episode. The visit started with a delicious lunch at the 50s-themed Main Street Diner and a word from co-owner Megan Allan. Then after a little guidance from Suzy Hosley, Executive Director for Downtown Frankfort, Inc., Ashley and Candy headed to Poor Richard’s Books, a charming independent bookstore. There, owner Liz Bernoskiei spoke briefly about the history of the business and the building in which it resides, as well as her role in helping to establish Frankfort’s popular Candlelight Weekend. After a stop at the Capital City Museum, where staff members Roger Barlow and Eva Napier offered some insights about the subject of this year’s exclusive Christmas ornament, the Lovely Miss Elizabeth, Candy and Ashley concluded their visit with a tour of the Rebecca Ruth Candy Factory. On top of the bourbon balls, the two hosts were given an additional treat– the opportunity to speak with Charles Booe himself, business owner and grandson of co-founder Ruth Booe!
