Conversation Pieces
Several years ago, a wise person once told me of the importance of having conversation pieces displayed around your home. Just yesterday I was describing to Chris how we need to be collecting interesting items from our various adventures to display in the cabin.

It is challenging to come up with interesting ways to prepare this prolific veggie. Bad memories as a child of mounds of overcooked, [...]
Booking it in Brenham
Writing away on the book here in Brenham, but missing my sweetheart in Austin.
To the Country We Go
Beginning bright and early on Tuesday morning, Chris squeezed in some time separating crinums in the back yard of my parents’ home in Magnolia.
