White Wednesday: A Fine French Hen for Saara

Posted by Picasa

Whenever we take a roadtrip to see Tall Son and his family, we always stop in historic Brenham, Texas to visit with Maryanne and Robespierre at their French flavored shop, Beadboard UpCountry. On our Thanksgiving trip, we were looking for hostess gifts for our daughter-in-law Saara. Saara (who should write a book...schooled by nuns in a Mexican convent, married a Mexican diplomat who mysteriously died in Denmark) loves chickens. In Beadboard that day, sat this wonderful hand carved wooden hen. So, this fine French hen now dominates Saara's kitchen table.
