More Magnolia

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 16 Comments/ 636

One of the main attractions at Magnolia in Waco, Texas has to be the fabulous shops. Yes, the food trucks and the restaurants and coffee shop and bakery are must stops but the shops are the heart of the complex. I loved them and found Continue reading →

Welcome to Magnolia

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 18 Comments/ 616

I have always been fascinated by Joanna and Chip Gaines and their story. Their Fixer Upper show was one that I loved to watch and they just have a good back story, in my humble opinion. I recently listened to Joanna’s latest book, The Stories Continue reading →

When it Rains Inside

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 10 Comments/ 562

Chris and I just got back from a long weekend in Texas. We had big plans. We managed to do just about everything we set out to do despite stupid sinus infections and not feeling 100% after we arrived. Isn’t that the way it goes Continue reading →

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
