Fredericksburg, Texas: A Photo Journey

On our last full day in Texas, Almanzo and I wandered over to the quaint little town of Fredericksburg, where we caught up with friends, ate some ice cream and strolled the streets. I fell in love with the town’s old fashioned charm and cute antique stores on every corner!

Here’s our photo journey, from me to you.

    When I searched for Praline Pecan Honey Butter, the ‘hit’ led me to believe there was a recipe for it, which is what I’m looking for to make Christmas Gifts. But the site only showed a picture of a jar. Does anyone know where I can get the recipe?Thanks. PS – We LUV to spend time in Fredericksburg! Been going for years and still haven’t seen everything. Hope you make it to the Chocolate Place on the main street.
