Well, today is not going to be my normal Thankful Thursday post--but we are to be thankful for everything. So here is my list--all the way from Texas!First, I am sooooooo glad that we get to come to Mo Ranch for a week of work and fun.
It is beautiful here and peaceful--what more could you ask for?
Second, I am thankful that my husband and I both enjoy some of the same things.
While we are in Texas there is something that we both enjoy going to get--beef jerky.
If there is anyone out there that does not do meat--ya might want to skip over the rest of this post. While we are here we head down the road to a small place called, Garven Store.
Each year we do not consider our trip complete until we are back in our vehicle with our little brown bags. I learned last year to never, never put my jerky in a zip lock bag-----I lost my jerky to moisture. :(
Back to the store(a picture is below).
Garven Store, is one of the oldest remaining convenience stores in Texas. This family business has been here since 1932--it's over 70 years old.
No only is their BBQ great, but their jerky is fantastic, incredible, and taste bud awakening good.
How is that for a commercial?
When I told them that I was going to post about them on my blog--
THEY GAVE ME TEN DOLLARS OFF!
Now--- I can certainly be thankful for that!
So, if you have a hankerin' for sum great jerky
visit
www.garvenstore.com.
You'll be thankful you did!
Now I feel like I just did a info mercial. :)
For more thankful Thursday visit Iris--our hostess- over at Sting My Heart.
P.S- that is my man waiting patiently to open the door for me while I finish taking my pictures.
Isn't he sweet?
Oh, and those are my knees you see with the jerky--not a great plate presentation--but then I was not waiting to get back to a plate! :)

Yummm...that jerkey looks great. I always need floss or a toothpick after jerkey!
Isn't it always the simple things in life that are just the absolute best!
I'm glad you got to share with us today! Enjoy Texas!
I love that store!! It sounds like you are having a wonderful time! Thanks for sharing your TT post! Blessings to you!
I do do meat, but am not a huge jerky fan. My dad would enjoy some for Father's Day though!
Love it and the pictures! I am taking pictures here, but unable to post them 'cause my mom's computer won't read them. Have a safe trip home and we both will be back home on Monday!
YUMMY!!! My hubby has figured out how to make his own jerky this past year or so...it's really easy!!
Have a great time on your trip, and travel safely!!
Blessings-Andie
I think my hubby would just love that store with their beef jerky. I have never had it--wonder why I never gave it a try.
I am so glad you had a fantastic time in Texas together.
Thank you so much for sharing your thankfulness with us this past week.
Be blessed today and always.
