“who’s that goat bridge” was the google phrase I found on the boyfriend’s computer as I walked down the stairs in this outfit. You can imagine my confusion.
Turns out the boots made quite a ruckus on our wood stairs and the boyfriend wanted to say the phrase that the troll says in Three Billy Goats Gruff as the goats are crossing over the bridge. Fortunately even with these random search fields, the answer was revealed: “Who’s that trip-trapping over my bridge?” Should I be worried that the boyfriend thinks I sound like a goat?
My weekend was spent in Houston celebrating a friend’s birthday. It was an absolutely wonderful time and I have to admit, when old college friends get together, it’s just as if we were back in college again. We laugh over the same old jokes and pull the same crazy antics all over again. If only we could’ve stayed longer than just a couple days.
On our way back home, we needed to make a pit stop in Centerville, TX to use the restrooms. As we walked into what we thought was a Shell gas station, it actually turned out to be a jerky store called “Woody’s Smokehouse.” It was ridiculously packed at 2:30 pm on a Sunday afternoon, filled with people eating jerky on picnic benches and others picking out flavors of pecan peanut brittle to take home. I heard some of the thickest Texas accents I’ve ever heard and there was nothing but aisles of Texas memorabilia inside the store next to a long counter filled with various jerky meats. We actually ended up getting some buffalo and venison jerky as souvenirs for our pitstop and took a picture of the smoker outside of the store, shown below.

You’ve never experienced Southern hospitality until you walked into this store. I can only imagine what the rest of the little town is like!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
