Magnolia

the most disappointing thing over the four days in texas was the impromptu stop at this place called Magnolia in Waco. I’d never heard of it and when a friend learned I was in Waco she said I must go check it out. The place is less than a mile from the Ranger Museum so we headed over.

The best part of Magnolia was the garden area. The cupcakes weren’t so-so. They (the city? Not sure who gets the money) charge $10 to park. I found a free spot on the street and walked two blocks.

People were standing in line for cupcakes and also to buy lots of McStuff in the store.

I like the show that inspired this place and am happy the family has created a legacy. However, I feel it should include much more local artisans etc. This was like over priced target or dollar store. Rant over!

Oh, the aluminum cans of drinking water were great and not over priced.
