This weekend, I had the pleasure of staying at the most incredible retreat center! The Milk + Honey Ranch in Round Top, Texas was the coolest place ever! Come and explore this wonderful ranch with an inspiring story!                    I arrived at a beautiful entrance on a classic, Texas dirt road. Driving through the gates and rounding the first curve, a picturesque farm opens before you. I began hearing the squawks from Peacocks, ducks, chickens, and roosters. Fat-bellied pigs lay sunning in their pens while shaggy cows, tiny ponies, and donkeys dotted the farm.The facilities were just what you would expect at a Texas retreat center. White, farmhouse accommodations are spread out over 54 serene acres. Along with casitas, there is a hotel, a lodge, A-frame cabins, and the coolest dome... 01/26/2025

Do you love a good treasure hunt? Well, come on out to the twice-a-year, largest antiques show in the country! All right here in tiny, (population 86), Round Top, Texas. This show brings folks in from all over the country and even from many other countries.If you are looking for some unique finds, this is the place. I will typically bring a group of women and we rent a cool farmhouse and spend days shopping and having the time of our lives. Seriously, there are miles and miles of shows to attend.It is worth a trip to visit either the last month of March or the last month of September. Twice a year you can come and get your fix.

This 4th of July we went to our friends home in Round Rock TX to watch the parade from the front yard of their beautiful vintage home.  The parade was wonderful with lots of colorful floats, bands on trailers, horses, and even a group of people riding their longhorns!  It was the epitome of small town American with a pure Central Texas feel.  What a perfect day.  Of course there was tons of food including frito pie, hot dogs, chili and more cakes and cookies than someone with a sweet tooth could dream of!  But my favorite dish was the Zucchini salad.  It w had just the right sweet and tangy flavor mix but the key was the crisp veggies.  I asked for the receipe and am going to share it with you all.   12 medum zucchini thinly sliced, 1 bell pepper (red, green orange or yellow ) finely ch... 07/07/2009
