Royers' 2010 Pie-Cation is over... what a blessed & wonderful break is was for the fam! So begins our 2011 24th Year-Pie-Run with much on the cafe's Pie-Plate! We are so grateful for the support of so many who have brought us to the dance and have stayed at the dance with us! This quote says so much ..... "Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks. Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be the miracle." Phillips Brooks

**** Check out the cafe's newest piece of art ... our new sign (the pic up above .... no, not the little one that Bud is holding!) We commissioned this piece of art a year ago to be created by Sundie & Brad Ruppert (and kids!) of VINTAGE SCULPTURE in Iowa. The Rupperts have set-up at Marburger Farm Antique Show for a good number of years & we love their STUFF!!! We are so proud of this addition to the cafe's walls ... yes, the inside walls are pretty full so we have to think outside of the cafe!
**** Speaking of "NEW".... we are waiting for Tara (and Rick) to have her baby! Suppose to induce Bentley Jaxon on Wednesday morning, Jan. 19th! WAWAWEEWA.... That will be the 6th Royer grandkid.... 4 boys & 2 girls!
**** 2011 is "The Year of the Pie!" So pie is the "hot new trend for the year".... as if you needed to be told that .... but heck, we'll take it and run with it! Listen to the Jan. 2nd broadcast on NPR. Just one of the numerous articles written about this "new trend!"
**** This is SO WAY, WAY COOL .... Royers Pies in Kuwait!!! This pic brought tears in our eyes.... oh the "power of pie" that comes out of this little cafe in Round Top, pop. 77 ... is pretty AWESOME! These guys are holding one of Ann's Pecan Pies that they received as a gift for the holidays!
YES SIR! .... you can ship Royers pies to our armed forces on the battle front! We're working on a special Memorial Day Royers Pie offer for those on the battlefront .... watch for the details!
**** Plan your 2011 SUPER BOWL PARTY with cafe's SUPER BOWL MENU!!! details Order now.... so simple & so DELISH... and yes, if you order enough you'll get some FREE pie!

SOME DEAR FRIENDS & PATRONS WE WANT TO SHARE WITH YAWL
Larry Keast, founder of Venturetech in Houston, a DEAR PATRON that we love much. We so stand with him in all he does as Larry is committed to giving second chances to those that have a criminal record and can't find work. He founded RECOVERY AT WORK. The Houston Chronicle just featured him on the front page.... take 5 minutes to read. Dr. Brene Brown, Ph.D., LMSW is a research prof at U of H Grad College of Social Work. In a fantastic talk from TEDxHouston, Brene Brown deconstructs vulnerability to reveal what she calls wholeheartedness: The capacity to engage in our lives with authenticity, cultivate courage and compassion, and embrace the imperfections of who we really are. Karen & Bud had dinner with Brene & her husband recently and had such a great time! We so look forward to seeing her & her fam in the cafe and more of her stuff!
Watch her video and check out her website , te courage and compassion, and embrace the imperfecti who we really are. |
bless, from all of TEAM ROYER!!!
