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.
Wow! What a fun place to visit. I want to take my kid : ) So glad Mona got to go! I hope her redesigning and decorating plans for her new abode work out splendidly!
geez! By the time she gets to my place she’s gonna need some lipo!
You mean I have to come all the way to Texas for those pancakes?? Not fair! I wonder if they ship well???
P.S. You might want to warn her that Flat Stanley has his eye on the place…
We’re so pleased that Mona enjoyed her stay here at the Village. I hope that she understands that our frontier time period cannot accommodate her invisible jet. Hopefully she’ll still be willing to put an offer in on the dream cabin!
Thanks again for visiting. We loved having y’all!
Take care,

Shucks, I can’t see some of the pics. But I do love her log cabin. I want one for myself!!!!!!!!!
SO glad Mona got to hang with you in Texas. And now? I totally want me some cheese blintzes from Old South.
Gee whiz! Look at those pancakes!! I love Mona’s dream cabin. It’s perfect for her. But I might have a problem when coming to visit her. I don’t know if there’s room for me in there.
I want to jump right through the computer right now and eat that German Pancake. LOOKS amazing. And, the museum looks so great. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE sites like that.
Wow! They sure don’t make pancakes like that here in the Northeast!
