Visit a Cigar Bar
Ben and Dianne Sordillo opened the Ashole Cigar Bar and Lounge in February 2020. It’s a concept the couple brought to the Lake area from Boston where they are everywhere. Ben has always been a bourbon and cigar enthusiast so owning a lounge was on his bucket list.
The lounge has a large bar, fully-stocked humidor with cigars, cigar accessories and other merchandise. An outdoor area has a big screen TV, space for live entertainment and various yard games set out.
Bartenders offer a selection of bourbon, the largest around, they say. There are scotches, whiskeys, tequila, vodka, cordials, wine and a selection of beer. The most popular drink is the Ashole-Fashioned, a Smoked Old Fashioned. Non-alcoholic options are available, too. Appetizers, burgers, paninis and pizza make up the food menu. Hours are Wednesday-Saturday 3-10 p.m. with kitchen hours 5-9 p.m.
There are two cigar bars on Horseshoe Bend. Leighton’s at the Lake, located across from Bittersweet Road, is a cigar retail store with a 1,000-square-foot lounge. Open daily, during normal business hours the public is welcome to come in sit in the lounge, watch TV, play a game of pool and smoke their cigar. Since there is no bar, the ventilated lounge is BYOB, so customers can bring their favorite beverage. Choose from the nearly 100 cigars including those made by Alec Bradley, Macanudo, Oliva and Ashton.

A great place to watch the football game, meet new people, listen to jazz or talk business. Be on the lookout for events in the future such as a Cigar Social over coffee and a chili cookoff.
Memberships are available which gives you access to the lounge for extended hours, humidified lockers and special discounts.
The Regalia Hotel & Conference Center offers the 1899 Bourbon & Cigars lounge. Open Thursday-Saturday 6 p.m.-close. Crafted cocktails, fine whiskeys and a selection of cigars are on hand.

Top 5 kitchen trends to try in the new year on any budget
(BPT) - When designing your dream kitchen, it’s important to balance timeless features with modern colors, patterns and textures that reflect your personality and style - especially since, now more than ever, it provides a place to cook, eat, work and entertain. A beautifully designed kitchen can also boost the home’s resale value in the future.
“Kitchen design trends for 2023 nod to the past and focus on increasing convenience, comfort and personal style,” said Kaley Galinksy, a merchant at The Home Depot. “Whether you’re planning on renovating, remodeling, or simply updating your existing space, there’s endless inspiration and affordable ways to achieve the most sought-after trends for kitchens in the coming year.”
To make sure your kitchen renovations are stylish and up to date, here are five kitchen design trends that will be big in 2023, according to The Home Depot.
1. Return to traditionalist
In 2023, you’ll see a return to classic, timeless and sophisticated black that offers a sense of comfort and familiarity of traditional designs. To update your home so that it’s always in style, choose classic, timeless palettes of black, white, creams and neutrals.
If you want to add interest to your home, use patterns and classic materials like marble, especially when it comes to your kitchen. High-contrast kitchens with classic lines and black finished cabinets and countertops are making a comeback and result in a striking kitchen makeover.
Cabinetry has a heavy influence on your kitchen’s overall design style and can help you achieve a new look in less time. With a cabinet makeover, you keep your existing kitchen layout and get allnew doors, drawer fronts and hardware, plus optional upgrades such as pull-out shelves, cabinet lighting and more.
2. Art deco revival
In the coming year, interior designers predict a renewed interest in the art deco styles of the roaring ‘20s. To achieve this trend in your home, incorporate brighter colors, geometric patterns, luxurious fabrics and shiny surfaces.
Add or replace the backsplash in your kitchen using geometric-shaped tiles in greens and golds for a sleek and elegant look.
3. Modern organic
A renewed focus on natural and organic materials will continue to make their way into kitchens in the form of warmer finishes, soft and organic shapes, as well as mixing finishes and materials like concrete, wood, rattan and metals.
For homeowners looking to embrace this modern organic trend, interior designers recommend introducing textured white oaks paired with honed black or dark gray countertops for your next kitchen remodel. For cabinets, slab doors are still popular, but the newer thin shaker is gaining popularity. You can even use the free Kitchen Estimator tool to select your design options and get a fast estimate.
4. Home retreat
Your home should be a sanctuary from the stressors of day-to-day life. This year, many homeowners will transform their homes into personal havens that help minimize stresses and prioritize a sense of calm.
For those that retreat to the kitchen for selfcare, an easy way to remove stressors is to reduce clutter with a well-organized pantry. Custom organization systems help add functionality and streamline your kitchen with stylish storage solutions, while still allowing you to enjoy your favorite appliances whenever you need them.
5. Modern cozy
For renovators who want their home’s interior to be warm and inviting, they should opt for a modern cozy style. This trend is inspired by the shabby chic style of the ‘80s but updated with fewer over-the-top embellishments, paired with darker paints and a focus on coziness and nostalgic familiarity.
New flooring can serve as an anchor design for the rest of the kitchen. Consider installing luxury vinyl plank flooring in your kitchen - a durable, affordable and water- and stain-resistant option that’s also easy to clean. Pair it with a cabinet renovation to achieve this style in your home.
If you’re ready to update your kitchen in 2023, The Home Depot’s Home Services can help you create your dream kitchen! Whether you’re planning a full kitchen remodel or just a few updates, they have solutions to fit any space and every budget. Their service providers can give your cabinets a facelift or install new ones, replace sinks, install flooring and update your countertops. Take advantage of free in-store and virtual design services and financing options to help make your project affordable.
All certified service providers are local, licensed, insured and background checked. To learn more, visit HomeDepot.com/Services.

3 features to focus on when designing an entertainment room
It might not take a home theater to enjoy the big game with friends or fire up family movie night, but a spacious entertainment room can certainly enhance such experiences. That’s especially true when homeowners give considerable thought to designing entertainment rooms. Film buffs and sports fans may have different notions of the ideal entertainment room, but the following are three design features that merit consideration by all looking to upgrade their entertainment spaces.
1. Screen
It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the sheer abundance of options when choosing a screen for an entertainment room. Televisions have long been a go-to choice, but projector screens merit consideration as well. If the room will be devoted exclusively to entertainment, then a television or a fixed projector screen might be homeowners’ best bets. Fixed projector screens are installed on the wall and projectors are typically hung from the ceiling. Semi-fixed projector screens provide a similar viewing experience but can be pulled down or retracted when residents are not watching a movie. Semi-fixed can even be installed in front of a television so residents can stream a movie on the projector and then watch television through a cable box when it isn’t movie night. Projectors often provide much bigger screens for a fraction of the cost of equally sized televisions. However, sports fans may prefer televisions, as live streaming sports has not yet caught up to streaming movies and TV shows in terms of reliability or even availability. As a result, many sporting events remain available via cable television only, while even those that can be streamed tend to have a few hiccups during the game.
2. Sound
Though televisions and projectors tend to come with built-in audio, the quality of that sound often leaves much to be desired. So homeowners will want to choose a sound system that provides theaterquality sound. If the room is being renovated from scratch, such as a full basement remodel, installing speakers in the ceiling can create a genuine theater experience. Ceiling speakers also can be installed in existing rooms, though that will likely cost more and extend the time it takes to complete the project. Surround sound is a must in any entertainment room. Homeowners worried about wires need not fret, as modern wireless surround sound systems are available at many different price points. Some systems are better suited to small rooms than others, so homeowners should measure the room and choose a system that best suits its dimensions.
3. Seating
Whether you’re using the space to watch the big game or fire up the latest blockbuster (or both), chances are you’re going to be spending considerable time sitting in your new entertainment room. A modular sofa might be ideal, as it can be reconfigured depending on what you’re watching and how many people are watching along with you. Comfort is indeed important, but you’ll also want seating that provides ample support so you aren’t battling any aches and pains once you leave the room. That support also can keep residents and guests from dozing off.
Everyone has their own ideas on what makes the ideal entertainment space. But sports fans, movie buffs and others can all agree that an entertainment room worthy of the big game or the latest blockbuster has a sizable screen, pristine sound and comfortable seats.
