Texas Diaries Part 6: PETA- People Eating Tasty Animals







 Cocaine Princess here.

Much love to the Drover Hotel for the personalized luggage tag that's branded with my initial- the same branding process they use to mark livestock and for the lucky silver dollar. 🌟


And extra love & hugs to My Texans, who showed me one hell of a good time in The Lone Star State. As you said to me, "we're all connected and one in the same, Miss Star. See you soon, darlin."

Texas Diaries Part 5: Billy Bob's

 











Cocaine Princess here.

Spent the majority of the afternoon at The Stockyards located in the national historic district, where it still has the original brick walkways to the wooden corrals, and home to the world's only twice a day cattle drive
It's filled with shops, restaurants, and trading posts- including one that is also a taxidermy-- hey you never know, one day you just might decide you want a bison head hanging in your house that's only 8K or perhaps a giraffe. Hey, there's always a buyer for everything. 

Lunch was at Billy Bob's- gotta love these Texas BBQ houses, where napkins are never served because you get a paper towel roll and instead of a table, you get a picnic bench-- gotta love it! It was such a fun day!!

Pic 9- Larry McMutry's Texas Trail of Fame- I'm a huge fan of his work with my fave being 'Dead Man's Walk' πŸ“–

Texas Diaries Part 3: Botanical Gardens & Puh-Kaan Pie

 












Cocaine Princess here.

Breakie at Yolks this morning, where apparently I had to taste grits in order to experience an authentic Texas breakie. As we ate a huge parade was occurring in honor of the upcoming college football game that was occurring later in the day. Texas A&M vs. Arkansas Razorbacks.


Afterward, we headed to the Botantical Gardens, where we spent a good couple of hours admiring such beautiful flowers and plants before heading to lunch.

Lunch was at "Risky Barbeque," where my oh my where I experienced a good ole fashioned Texas BBQ, including fried okra & brisket. For dessert, Pecan Pie with ice cream. And down here in the south, I was informed, "Miss Star, it's pronounced "puh-kaan" and not "pecan"

Texas Diaries Part 2: The White Elephant

 












Cocaine Princess here.

About last night: Sept 27/24

About last night: Dinner at Joe T Garcia, opened since 1939- Tex-Mex restaurant where the lineups to get in are never ending, but luckily, we had reservations. And omg, its's quite possibly the best Mexican food outside of Mexico.

Afterwards we all headed to the stockyards and hung out at The White Elephant.

Did some shopping at Mavericks - guys bought some shirts, and us girls got some jewelry. The famous western store is the same store where the Yellowstone costume designer buys the cowboy hats the cast wear, including their boots. Apparently, all the guys want the hat the character Cal wears.

Night ended up at the Hotel Dover, which is home for the next couple of nights.

XOXO,

Cocaine Princess

Texas Diaries Part 1: Welcome to the Lone Star State πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

 








Cocaine Princess here.

Welcome to the Lone Star State πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Good times with good people and good conversations. Topics included US Healthcare vs Canadian Healthcare, our insane lock down to Trump, Biden, Kamala to Prime Minister Trudeau, and the truckers' convoy to the border shutdown....

Enjoying a family style meal. Apparently, it's a Texan rule to order an Ice Tea, aside from owning a truck.

PS: I don't think I've been called 'maam' so many times in my lifetime as I have been today.


XOXO,
