Prophetic Dreams

Call me crazy if you want, but I believe in prophetic dreams. And I come from a long line of others that do, too.

Biscuits and Gravy

If I had to pick the defining breakfast of my life, it would be biscuits and gravy. And I’m not alone. You’d be hard-pressed to find any local that didn’t grow up on it.

Hurricane season is here, and Debby is headed straight for us. Fayetteville is already cloudy and experiencing intermittent showers. The dreary morning has got me thinking about the story of the Gray Man.

Hey there! I’m Cassie Clark, a Carolina girl who grew up in two towns on opposite sides of North Carolina. My family has lived here for 8 generations, so my love for my home state is something I got honest. I’m passionate about sharing all the things that make North Carolina living so sweet – the history, the great outdoors, the culture, and the laidback lifestyle. That’s what Where the Dogwood Blooms is all about. It’s my love song to life in the Old North State; an ode to sunshine & hurricanes.
