On our way to the center of the ice cream universe we stopped at the Antique Rose Emporium. The name doesn’t do it justice, it’s huge! Acres of gorgeousness…they even have their own chapel.
I could live there. Well, I could if they’d just let me move in here:
It’s outside Brenham, so one could make regular ice cream runs. I suppose all the tourists might be a problem…and they may have other plans for that house…but I’m sure that could be overcome, don’t you think? We wandered happily about the garden for some time and had to drag ourselves away. I mean, look at all this!



Not only was it lovely, the staff were full of helpful information about roses. We stopped and smelled plenty along the way, too. Totally worth a trip!
Roses are Red (& Yellow & White & Apricot &…)
