My Texas Trip and Sunday Morning Coffee
I am leaving tomorrow morning for a week-long trip to Texas and I cannot wait. Waco and Round Top, here I come!
It’s been a while since I have been to Waco and this trip is overdue! But I am so excited. Also, thanks for joining me for Sunday Morning Coffee. This is a place to share, learn, explain, dream, and have fun.

About Me
I cannot believe I will be in Waco tomorrow! I am staying at my house for three days and I am going to be giving the house a spring refresh!
I decided to add some sage green accents and I have ordered a lot of fun decor items to refresh our home. Since our home is an Airbnb, I selected items that are versatile and will wear well.
Next week I will share everything that I have done and even share some before and after photos.
After Waco, I head to Round Top to join some of my favorite girlfriends for five days of shopping.
I won’t be buying much but I promise to share my finds every day! Would you like me to share everything about Round Top? Let me know.

Here are some of the items I bought for the Waco House spring refresh.
My Latest Project
It’s only been a little over a week and my garden has grown so much! Most of the plants are 2″ – 3″ taller but some have grown 6″ and more.
If you missed my previous posts about how I prepared for planting and how I planted my kitchen garden then just click the links.
I did have to cut a few leaves that were being bothered by pests. I am guessing maybe slugs but Mother Nature has helped a lot with all of the rain we have had this week.
I can’t even begin to tell you how much I love my garden.

My Biggest Challenge This Week
I hosted Book Club this week and it was so much fun. But, it was a lot of work.
All 14 of us read Kristin Hannah’s newest book called The Women. It is a very powerful book about female nurses and their accomplishments and struggles while serving in the Vietnam War. It is a very powerful book and I loved it. Every single one of us loved the book!
Oh wait, I didn’t read the book, I listened to it. I love listening to books! Because I can multi-task, such as cook, clean, drive, or organize! But I only do things I can do that don’t detract me from listening.
As the host, I selected the book and also prepared the dinner. Of course, I decided to cook a Thai meal to fit the theme of the book. I made Peanut Slaw Salad, Thai Glazed Chicken, Thai Basil Chicken, and Spiced Chicken Pad Thai.
It was so good.
- Have a fabulous time in Texas!
- Only buy vintage items at Round Top that fit in my suitcase. Nothing more!
