Oh my, Where to start…read more This used to be my favorite Grocery store. Thank God I don't have to shop here anymore. For the past couple of years, hubby has gotten the dark chocolate fondant white cake here for his birthday. The bakery here used to be excellent. This year hubby wanted that same cake so we came to order it & I showed her the photo of it & she told me they don't make them anymore. She couldn't tell me why. So hubby looked around & saw a gorgeous "Tres leches cake with fruit" and he LOVES that so he said "I don't care I want this one" so we bought that one. However, while we were there I was also looking at the fresh baked breads & they were all really small & kinda deformed. That means the staff aren't PROOFING the dough long enough. It's not rocket science. However, pandemic slackers, no one wants to work, bla bla bla, I can imagine no one left here is smart enough to know how to bake. To Management: "The only employee that has ever been helpful & mentally capable of running anything is the employee "Ronnie" who ironically owns a food company. I bet he could run the bakery. Just a thought." Anyhoo, we get the cake home & it said: "Tres Leches FRUIT Cake" on the label, but turns out, it was a Tres Leches cream cake with no fruit. So the label was even wrong. Luckily, Hubby LOVED the Tres Leches cream cake, even better than the Tres Leches fruit cake he occasionally gets. So no harm no foul. All turned out well astonishingly. However, having only one excellent cake is not enough to make us return anytime soon. Please fix the bakery. Bring back the dark chocolate fondant white cake.

We spotted this stand, on the south (east bound) side of 82. "Let's check it out on the way back.", Thuy says. "Sure.", sez me. So here we are. 20 ears of sweet corn for 7 dollars. Strikes me as a deal, as I just saw similar corn at Tom Thumb for $3 for 5 ears, though Tom Thumb corn is already shucked. We buy 2 bags, as were are going to a friends house to watch fireworks. As we stand around people are pulling in often, buying corn, many commenting how good it is. We shall see. So we get home and start shucking. First ear is rather rotten at the end. Next ear bit of rot with worm. Out of 40 ears, only 2 were unblemished. Not a huge deal, as the rotten end is easily removed... And, it was pretty tasty corn. And it was a hit at the BBQ. Bottom Line: Worth the experience, rot and all!

We had a scheduled group tour (the only way you can get a tour) today and arrived quite a bit early…read moreout of anticipation for heavy traffic. But there is a fun playground set up by the calves which meant we got first dibs on the hay slide! The calves knew visitors meant feeding time and were licking us, just waiting for that wonderful milk bottle to be given to them. Our guide was amazing, taking time to answer every one of our questions thoroughly. She showed us the stalls where the dairy cows feed, relax and stay cool, the water washout that cleans the stalls, the milking stations, and even let us practice our milking skills on a model cow. She explained that the cows are milked every 12 hours so our tour not only fell outside of their normal schedule, but they wouldn't be comfortable having strangers milk them. Which is why we practiced on a model, still very cool. Totally understandable, we want the cows to continue producing their delicious milk for all to enjoy! We learned that raw milk, not pasteurized, is actually better since the vitamins and nature's goodness haven't been heated out. After tasting the raw milk, it tastes SO delicious. They aren't selling commercially anymore and can only sell straight from their farm, so if you happen to want fresh milk, ice cream or other locally made farm foods, visit their store on site! Be sure to bring cash or Venmo. My family enjoyed today's tour and recommend everyone support our local dairy farmers at Circle N Dairy :)

Circle N is a small family owned and operated raw milk dairy. Because Texas prohibits the sale of…read moreraw milk in stores, Circle N exclusively sells their milk and milk products at their on-site shop. There you can purchase raw milk by the pint or gallon (they have chocolate and strawberry too!), as well as dairy like cheese, cream, yogurt, sour cream and ice cream. The store also sells items from other local vendors: things like honey, sausage, and nuts. The milk is fresh, delicious, and very reasonably priced ($5.00 a gallon for white). Coming from California, where stores do sell raw milk but it's like $14 a gallon, I was shocked at the price Circle N was able to offer theirs. I wish we lived closer so I could make it part of my regular weekly shopping! The main attraction for us was the dairy tour, which is offered for $7 a person (under 2 is free). There is no set schedule for tours so you need to contact the dairy in advance to schedule one. The tour was incredibly informative and so much fun! We got to see where they milk the cows and how they flush out the barns. We learned about the silo, how they feed and care for the cows, and even got to give the calves a bottle! The tour ended with a half pint sample of the raw milk (a much more generous portion than I expected!). The only thing I wish we could have seen is a cow actually being milked. I had been on another dairy tour previously where we had the chance to see the mechanical milking and it was really neat, but this was at a much larger dairy, where the milking happened almost constantly throughout the day. At Circle N, the milking only happens twice a day (2:30a and 2:30p), so it makes sense that we weren't able to see it happening. Michelle, the owner and tour guide, was wonderful. She made us feel very welcome and was patient to answer all our questions. We packed a lunch and ate it at the covered picnic tables they leave open to the public. This is an outstanding destination for a homeschool coop, or even just a fun activity for the family. Cash or check only. Bring a cooler - you'll want to take home some of this milk!

This place is still new, but honestly? It's already running circles around half the "legendary"…read moretruck stops people brag about. If they keep it up, this spot really could live up to the name. Didn't test the showers, but if the men's room is any clue, they're probably cleaner and roomier than my first apartment. The Mexican joint on site? Their breakfast burrito didn't taste like it came from under a heat lamp -- which in truck stop terms makes it practically gourmet. Parking is all pull-thru (thank you!), but here's the quirk: the spots lean left and forward, so depending on how you like to sleep, it's either "slight incline" or "truck cab ski slope." Your chiropractor will love the variety. Pro tip: watch out for construction debris at night -- nothing like playing "guess the pothole" in a 70-foot rig. Bottom line: clean, fresh, and actually built with drivers in mind. Truckers Paradise might still be under construction, but it's already miles ahead of the dusty "classics" people keep romanticizing. I'll happily roll through here again.

Then as you pull away you realize they're telling someone on a radio your truck details. Also they mentioned this place has laundry machines. This is not true. The convenience store is lackluster. They got the basics covered and some random expired products. Showers are a trip, man. 12 bucks for a basic shower? Okay. Then you get there and an attendant escorts you to your shower. You get escorted into a large room, the walls do not reach the ceiling, the room is lined with urinals and toilets without a partition. The entire floor is wet. You get escorted to a hallway where the showers are. Oh thank god it's not a communal shower. You get into the private shower room. It's about the size of a closet. No sink or toilet. No counter. The walls here also do not go up to the ceiling. You can hear everyone around you and the lobby where the attendant is. I was kinda paranoid like man are they recording us for a website or something? Is this a prank show? Oh yeah and the showers don't drain. As you leave you'll see some guy walking up with a mop bucket. Creepiest experience I've had yet grabbing a shower at a truck stop, which is quite a feat. Maybe next time the parking lot attendant will give you a coupon for the shower attendant to wash your back for you.
