Dying for Chocolate: Cabernet Day: Molten Spiced Chocolate Cabernet Cakes
Dying for Chocolate: Cabernet Day: Molten Spiced Chocolate Cabernet Cakes
Well this about says it all for a cloudy, cool, football kind of Sunday afternoon. I don't have all the ingredients, but I am so glad I found this blog and this recipe. You know me, I just had to share a new, incredible find. I need to write a blog about searching through thousands of blogs. There are incredible ones, great one, good ones, average ones, ones that don't interest me but I am sure someone else, and finally the "I thought I'd write a blog and never did blog".
I am still going through the learning experience and experiment. What I want to offer you is a place to leisurely go and find the best of the best that I have spent all the time and energy finding. Maybe it is the best days on certain blogs and not every day they post. Maybe it is a totally unique bit of history you would find interesting. Maybe it is a quick "oh my gosh" moment. Maybe it is an incredible deal. Whatever it is, I intend to make it worth your while to read this blog. You could instantly be clicking off to go to the information that I found for you. That's okay, that's what I'm here for. To make your life interesting and time efficient. Sifting through all of the rest just for you.

What a cool article. Thank you FBG CVB for tweeting this. Good way to spread the word. If I could have been the writer of this article I would agree with 4 out of 5 of her picks. However, I love Fredericksburg being in the 5 of all the world! We have had several ladies groups book our Great House and have others lined up. I had a group of girls (ladies of 39 yrs,) that I had taught in the fourth grade. What a party that was! We have had several pre-wedding shopping tours with the Bride and the Bridesmaids. Also, several mothers, daughters, sisters, freinds, family of the wedding parties and all other combinations. Check us out and then you can write and article just like this one of your world travels including Fredericksburg, TX, and the Lazy T B and B.
Hugs and sunsets,

Best Stores in Texas 2011
Best Stores in Texas 2011
Totally cool......6 stores in Fredericksburg, the jewel in the Hill Country, have been voted best stores in Texas for 2011. "And on the other hand" as Randy Travis would say McKinney, my home town, has one store "Pumps". Way to go. You will always hold my heart.
I have been to most of the stores on the Fredericksburg list but will make them all by the end of this weekend. Can't wait to go to Red and congratulate all of them. Homestead I have been to many times as well. I always take guests there to show them the building for sure. Really cool, old, old, antiques from all over the world await you. House Wine is a favorite of my son and his girlfriend. I will stop by and have something special before strolling on down the street. Root is a wonderful, contemporary upbeat store. I haven't been to Beulah's but I now have a reason--a new baby girl cousin, Ava Grace. Beulah's sounds like the perfect place to go and find that special gift. And Something Different II is the perfect expression of me...country chic, modern, antique, and just love it all! Come on down and enjoy the uniqueness of Fredericksburg when you want award winning shopping, dining, wineries, and hospitality. We have it all.....and more, now that I think about it. Gotta go--there's a spectacular sunset on the way followed by the show presented by the Milky Way.
