Okay, soooo we went to a wedding in Texas! Pretty cool, no cookie table, and you would know how I feel about that if you happen to have read my Post on cookie tables. I was disappointed....I survived by eating the very tasty cake that was served however. (Each and every flavor) Wedding traditions are so different in different areas. We here in NE Ohio think we have to serve a 3 course meal with crazy amounts of desserts or we're just not doing our part. Other parts of the country are finger foods and a cake. I enjoy going to weddings in other areas and seeing the different traditions and enjoying all of them.

Texas is big and I think everything really IS big in Texas. Someone who I sat next to on the flight to Dallas said she grew up there and we giggled when she said "You can drive a REALLY long time and STILL be in Texas." We didn't get to experience as much of the state as I would like to have, in fact darn little, but that will be another trip.

Going from 80 degree temps in Dallas, to 14 Degrees when we flew into Colorado to stay with our daughter( she attended the wedding as well) was just not fair! How do you pack one suitcase for all those temperatures? Easter was spent at a cool Tapas Restaurant in Denver. Dinner was excellent. Somehow the altitude really gets to me initially. Takes a few days to get past it. So we spent the night and Headed to Breckenridge.

All in all it was an awesome trip, great to see a lot of friends and family. Revisit a really cool mountain town, soak in the hot springs in Glenwood Springs, Co. and drive through the scenery on the way to Glenwood.......breathtaking....really! I would do that again in a minute.

Lots of the stores and restaurants I sell biscotti to were low and I jumped right into work. Now I'm preparing for Mother's Day gifting.....the website looks awesome and we have an attractive, well priced product featured for it....postcards are going out next week.

Have a great week!
