Y’all, I did a thing. It’s a thing that’s not as far outside my comfort zone as it used to be but that’s still not a thing I can do without sort of having to talk myself into it.

The thing I did was to go inside the Historic Rocksprings Hotel and have a chat with the owner. I wasn’t staying there or anything – I was passing through town and decided to stop and look at the place. She was perfectly lovely, and let me take photos, and I lived to tell about it. Amazing! And I might even do something like this again; you just never know.

Here’s the dish and cookbook sections of the kitchen that’s on the back of the first floor. There’s not a restaurant – just a big kitchen with lots of pots and pans and dishes and guests are encouraged to prepare their own meals.
