LOVED being asked to takeover the My Day in Texas Ag instagram account! And I rocked it! ;) I highlighted farm-fresh salads, sides, meals, desserts, and cocktails. I talked about the Pearl farmers market, the Hill Country Nursery, Voges Veggies, 4-H, raising chickens, fresh eggs, and more! Even got to enjoy Valeria Farm-to-Table and Whiskey Cake for the first times too! The only thing that could have made…

I think we spent an hour in this barn, enjoying…

Bits & Boxes said this:…

Our third handmade market! Cold, windy, rainy... miserable. And we had to get up even earlier than usual, to go buy a folding table at walmart. Ugh! But despite the yuckiness of the whole day, the boys were a big help in setting up, I stayed fairly warm with yummy hot chocolate, got to visit with LOTS of friends and shoppers (I can't believe how many people showed up!!!), and…
