Passing the Good

We are traveling again...in Dallas for the weekend and dear Carol is house sitting and caring for the dogs.  We  love Carol! So do Paddy and Annie. 

We stopped at Whole Foods on Friday to shop for Mom who is on a 10 fibers a day diet.  Of course we picked up the things WE are not suppose to eat....
and we came across TOMMY... really Tommy in person.  I had seen this man standing behind one of those food things they have set up giving out samples.  Made me wonder because he did not have on the typical apron the servers usually have on.  When we made our third pass by him Terry stopped to try out the food he had there... SALSA!!!  TRULY REALLY TRUE and really VERY good!



Those of you that read my blog realize I am huge into natural foods and stay away from additives, nitrates, msg, high in sodium products and no processed meats etc.  Tommy's products are all natural, reflecting his upbringing in Austin with parents that cooked this way at home.

Once I am home I will try and add a link to his site on my blog...but meanwhile...go visit it and find the store in your area, or order from his site.  TRUE TEXAS HOME MADE SALSA.  Meeting him in person made it even more delightful knowing he is the one that made the salsa we were tasting and buying.  We picked up some of the meat rubs and after we use them this week I will report on those as well.


I realized today that my studio and teaching started in 1982 and next year I will have been doing this for 30 years. Seeing a person jump out there to start a business like this is so appreciated as I know the journey is different for all of us, but equally as satisfying if you are following your true path. 

I wish Tommy well with this venture and truly encourage you try out his Texas Salsa.  Meanwhile... we are enjoying time with grandson Jonathan and his birthday and seeing Lady L again and in all the eating we are enjoying two of Tommy's salsas... YUMM!

A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

Arrival...Refrigerator?

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Arrival Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whtever you do, and he will establish your plans."   Worrisome times laced with prayers.   The world seems like a scary place lately. Praying for everyone affected by the last two hurricanes.  My adventures today were the result of a dead refrigerator. I have loved my Kitchen Aid refrigerator very much. The first one in the 'French Kitchen' look died at 13 months. Hubby wanted the same refrigerator. Well this one made it four years and a few months. I cannot believe appliances are not made to last longer...but wait, is that because they make more money if we have to replace it in 4-5 years?  You replace your mattress at least every 7 years... and your washer dryer, you might get 7 years out of those... The stoves seem to make it closer to 10 years. We are Lowe's customers, and Robert ...

The Marsh... of our lives? Walking with God.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 The Marsh 6 x 12 inches Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   I did two of these paintings about three years ago. They both sold immediately to a Florida Collector. Simple and elegant for a horse painting.  Ephesians 5:1-2 "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma."  One of the biggest challenges in walking with God is trusting Him and not trying to out think Him or to do everything your way. It never works.  The Apostle Paul wrote of his own struggles in Romans 7 .  Romans 7: 22-23 “ So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the ...
