  1. Preach it, Caliann – food’s at least the BEST reason. Getting away from 6′ piles of dirty snow everywhere you look is another…

  2. Okay, food and *warmth* are the best reasons to come here. LOL But, I must say, there is a certain wisdom in a plate piled high with homefries, steak, biscuits, all slathered in cream gravy with a nice side of of lemon-pepper greens that have been simmered in enough butter to cause a coronary just by themselves.

    Texas has at least 7 big biomes that are not alike. But the one I spent time in had five seasons:

    “Jeez, it’s FREEZING! It MUST be 70 degrees!”

    Steve, being from Minnesota, nearly died of asphyxiation on the spot.
