Flown The Coop

This week I’ll be closed Thursday & Friday for shenanigans… not really. I’ll be at The Homestead Conference in Waco.

{to discover possible class ideas}

Open Saturday during the Cotton Gin Festival with a sidewalk sale! Don’t miss that one :-)

Small towns like Burton need leadership that will navigate small town growth.

A leader who can balance community, need for economic stability and infrastructure. Shocker… it can all be done at the same time working WITH community.

To kick off early voting is hosting Jeff, the candidate for Mayor (and my husband). Come out tonight to hear why Jeff is the man for the job.

If you can’t make it, or curios about Burton’s small town issues, check out Jeff’s FB page to see videos of where he stands.

Check out Burton’s Paper of Record… The Burton Bulletin is back in publication. This is a great peak into the best kept secret in the Lonestar state!

I’ve read the book You2 by Price Pritchett hundreds of times. Today I open the book to a quote that I don’t ever remember reading.

“If you do not expect it, you will not find the unexpected, for it is hard to find and difficult”. Heraclitus 500bc

Expect the unexpected! Miracles will happen. 😉

Coffee & entrepreneurship runs deep in our veins! ☕️

Follow my son’s journey Eckhardt Coffee Roasters

First roast in the roastery—proof that dreams, a little caffeine, and a lot of support can do wonders! Big shoutout to my family, whose belief in me and love for coffee made this possible. Here's to fresh starts and fresh coffee.

Happy Birthday Lady B!!! 🎉🎂🎁

On this day in 1925, the Burton Farmers Gin Association made a historic purchase—a Cooper Bessemer Type IV Oil Engine—to replace the steam engine inside the Burton Farmers Gin.

📜 This receipt marks the beginning of Lady B’s journey from Grove City, Pennsylvania, to Burton, Texas. In many ways, this document serves as her unofficial "birth certificate!"

Join us on April 26th at the 36th Annual Burton Cotton Gin Festival as we celebrate Lady B’s 100th birthday! Experience special festivities honoring the engine that has powered our cotton gin for a century, explore her rich history, and be part of this milestone event 🥳
