Texas hill country eateries

04.19.15

So let it begin, I love weekends ♥♥♥! And I love when I have a weekend where I will have not only time to spend with the peeps I love but get to lounge or getting caught up on things at home!  My weekend started with our usual Friday date night.  Dinner in San Marcos (Herbert’s Taco Hut) and a movie.  Let me tell you about Texas hill country eateries y’all!

But first…if you haven’t seen the Woman in Gold, you should. I loved it and am so sad that while we know some of history we don’t know the whole truth because our stupid history books in school never-ever told the whole story.  That’s a whole other post!  But you should see it.

Got to spend my Saturday with my niece Jacq as I took her on a trip to Wimberely for lunch @ the Leaning Pear (one of my faves) and some window shopping.

The rest of the weekend haps went like this…


 the haps~

  • dinner at Herbert’s Taco Hut in SM (delicious and authentic Mexi food- especially their tortillas)!
  • Woman in Gold movie (fab)
  • Saturday in Wimberely
  • the Leaning Pear for lunch with my niece Jacq
  • lunch was the leaning pear salad & black currant tuna salad (yum)!
  • Sunday – were lots of “to-do’s”

the pics~

Beautiful blue bonnets that creep out even in an old sidewalk-can brighten any day!

the hap-happy’s~

Some of the other LOVES…well, if you know me, you know I can’t or choose not to drink without a straw. (I know I have issues.)  My daughter gave me “stainless steel” straws…(how awesome is that?) for Christmas.  Well I finally got to using them and I gotta tell you, I’ve had plastic and even glass straws but this is like the “cherry on top” kinda deal!  And they’ll last forever…

Got one in my office, at home, in my car and an extra on backup!  Thanks lovie doll!

Some of my other happy’s were being able to make a most difficult dessert and it turned out! YAY!

Hope y’all have an awesome week, we’ll be attending another one of our son’s shows this week and excited about my brother coming for a visit.  But don’t forget if you’re in Texas or better yet…in the Texas hill country, you must go out to eat!  It’s the BEST!
