Overflowing with gratitude! 🙏 Huge thanks to texasbookfest for having me at this amazing annual bash. The crowd turnout is mind-blowing and gives me all the warm fuzzies of being an author. 📚 Highlight reel of my Austin adventures: Had a blast with the fantastic jenna.sparks.photo – this celebration trip was an absolute must! 🌮🍹 Tacos and margs hit differently with you around. Shared a touching moment with a lovely lady who wanted my cookbook dedicated to her late mother. Her tears, though bittersweet, made signing that book extra special. 🌹 Total fan girl moment meeting an editor from texasmonthly magazine who moderated the panel and told me she read my cookbook cover-to-cover. 📖 Reunited and cooked up a storm with fellow El Pasoan armandorayo, and met other awesome authors and chefs. Despite Austin’s gloomy weather, you were fab, and the fan support? 🌟 You guys make me feel extra, extra special. 💖 #muybuenofiestas #AustinAdventures #GratefulAuthor
