Out and About at Canyon Lake

Recently we had the opportunity to dine at the Cottonseed Cafe which has a very interesting menu and is the sight of an original cotton gin.  To see more about this cafe have a look at cottonseed cafe.com

We started the meal with an interesting plate which featured local produce.  The platter was made up of citrus marinated olives, cheddar wafers and spiced pecan nuts.  All delicious.


Here is yellow beets with fried goat's cheese.


Ross enjoyed locally caught trout.  Another day we visited the oldest bakery in Texas which is called the Naegelin Bakery and has been around for 142 years first opening its doors in 1868.  To see more about this interesting store have a look at www.naegelins.com
It has amazing cakes, pastries, pies and breads.  When you leave the bakery there are some interesting murals to be seen.



It is very worthwhile getting off the beaten track and to enjoy the many and varied places that dot the Texas landscape.

Cheers Beverley and Ross
