Magnolia Market with Ruthy and Foodie Fun

This Texan hasn't done much cooking this week. And when I did, I forgot to take pictures. However, I did make a trip to Waco, Texas to meet up with our own Ruth Logan Herne.

We met at The Silos, home of Magnolia Market.

Not to mention some of prettiest gardens I've ever seen.

 The snapdragons and roses were in full bloom. And check out this cool fence.

 I loved all of the little vignettes.

Then we shopped at Magnolia Market, though neither of us bought anything. Mostly because we were holding out for the bakery.

Pastries and a long list of cupcake choices awaited us there. I got a coconut cupcake, a strawberry one, lemon-lavender, the Silobration and a Chocolatier. 

Hmm... Can't imagine where the Chocolatier and the strawberry one went. Though, I will say that the strawberry was my favorite.

Then it was back home to the ranch for our final fish fry of the 2019 Lenten season. This is some of the best catfish you've ever tasted.

Just for the record, this was my son's plate, not mine. But I still ate my fair share of fish.

Yes, those were the highlights of my week. The rest of it was spent finishing up my latest manuscript which, I'm happy to say, is now in the hands of my editor. I think that calls for a celebration. Someone pass me a cupcake.

How did you spend your Holy Week? And how was your Easter?
