I got word a month or so ago
that Mona
from Moxie
Media wanted to stop by for a visit. It appears she is traveling the country this week and needed a place to stay in Texas. I offered my purse as accommodations and thought I would show her around.
I decided to take her on my favorite day trip to Fort Worth. It is a little bit of country tucked into the city…
We headed out to Log Cabin Village.
Mona seemed to enjoy the sights. At the mill she learned how to make corn and wheat into meal.
She took particular interest in the herb drying house. I think she was more interested in it as real estate than a history lesson.
Despite her slightly high maintenance ways, she was a good sport and attempted fake egg gathering from faux-chickens.
The make-shift swimming pool seemed to be more her speed.
Followed by a soak in the fresh water jacuzzi.
And then a nap.
Seriously, she flew all the way out here to nap?
I have the solution…
a stop at Ol’ South Pancake House.
An Ol’ South favorite, German Pancakes for lunch which are prepared at the table with fresh lemon and powdered sugar should do the trick.
She was revived.
She was inspired.
She sneaked back into Log Cabin Village…
and put a down payment on a little property…
Mona’s Dream Cabin.
She has to resume her travel this week.
But after her whirlwind Moxie Media tour, she will be back for some old fashioned relaxation in her Dream Cabin in the woods within walking distance of some of the world’s best pancakes.
Those damn pancakes have me literally salivating over here!! And the Log Cabin Village looks so cool. I’m packing my bags- are you ready?! 🙂
Seriously…that pancake!!! I’m starving and I’m pretty sure that would do the trick right about now.
Mona was sneaky when I took her to Starbucks too. 🙂
Um, I think I am booking my flight to Texas. Prepare yourself. After seeing that Swedish Pancake, how can I resist? Plus, I am going to want to see Mona’s new digs in person. I am just hoping that she has an in-law unit large enough to accommodate me and my kids.
Thanks for showing Mona such a fantastic time, Holly. You are the best.
this is so funny… and yum @ the pancakes!
That Mona. She hides those pancakes so well….
you are so creative…loved all the pics and I really wanna visit that log cabin place!
Looks like Mona is having a great time today, thanks for sharing your visit with us.
O-M-G…I am laughing so hard right now! FAB job on the excursion with Mona…who knew she was so photogenic???
Is it just me, or doesn’t Mona look like a blow up doll in some of these photos…. Probably just me.
Oh my god I am drooling over those pancakes right now. Ok, my next trip is to Texas, you’ve got a spare bedroom right?
(Awesome pics!!)
