Take out from Bodega has saved many a Round Top hostess. But you might not have a darling farm with a huge rustic table at which to welcome guests. No worries. They’re happy to have you over to their place on the square in downtown La Grange.
And don’t fret if you’re not a wine goer. Certainly you can go Frostie.
Crocheted cigarettes, live bunnies in gilded cages, ladies with antlers and all those kinds of surprises
The Library and Gallery are right along the road. Turn at Clutter & Excess, go about 300 yards and they’ll be on your left behind the gates. See if you can tell where I got my little white Scion stuck in the ditch before the gates were built!
Cross your fingers and hope to be invited to one of N°3’s casual private receptions for new favorite artists.
The good news? You've discovered The Crush List. The not so good? I haven't been actively posting here for a few years now, which means the never terribly reliable details about my crushes are even more unreliable. Antique vendors have switched venues, shops in town have moved or passed on, donkeys may or may not be in the same front yards... In spite of the risks of massive misdirection I've left the site up in hopes that it still achieves its goal - to inspire you to visit Round Top for the Antiques Show or any time you have the time.
With that said, I leave you to explore this random list of my very favorite things about my very favorite place. I’ve tried to capture the area’s special pieces and parts. Some are big deal, some are small gestures, some are legendary and some are just tiny pip and squeak.
