Welcome to Celia's Blogmania!

You made it! I’m so happy to see you here. Now, I’ll make this easy. Leave a comment and tell me these three things:

1. What is the title of my newest release? (It’s at the top of this blog!)

2. How many followers do I have? (Easy as pie.)

3. In what state do I reside? (So easy it’s a gimme.)

My gift pack is a mystery—even to me (forgive me, but life-stuff got in the way, here)—but I promise to have something nice and of course, something about Texas. Maybe a pretty bracelet, a print of ALL MY HOPES AND DREAMS, and who knows? If you win, I’ll track you down.

To make it easy for you to move on, here are links to blogs I am to post for my visitors: Use as many as you like, or use one where you'll find several more from which to choose.

EARTH DAY-Love in Bloom

To acknowledge Earth Day, I’d like to show you a wonderful place whose goal is to perpetuate the natural wildflowers and vegetation of Texas. Even though it’s also a business operation, the owners tend the fields with love.

The Texas Wildseed Farms claim to be the largest in the nation. I can attest to the fact the place is very big. The site is in the beautiful Hill Country, seven miles east of Fredricksburg, Texas—a German community that decided decades ago to become one of the best arts and crafts towns around (and they succeeded.) The day my husband and I visited the farms, the fields of flowers captured your eye. The main crop that weekend was brilliant red poppies. 

 The center is popular for photographers, both amateur and professional. That day, a lovely bride walked through the Market Center in her gorgeous wedding dress and veil, drawing every eye. The crowd parted as though she were royalty strolling through her subjects, for she smiled and waved. She looked like a woman in love. I hope she held a bouquet of bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrush for her wedding photo.

Chuck-Wagon Cooking: A visitor may buy a plate of brisket, mashed potatoes, corn-on-the-cob, and biscuits cooked right there--served with locally made jellies.

As far as the eye could see, fields of wildflowers grew, waiting for the owners to harvest the seed. Seeds of every Texas wildflower imaginable are shipped all over the world.

The Wildseed Farms include several retail areas: a huge nursery, Market Center, Wildflower Seed Store, Live Butterfly Exhibit, the Brewbonnet Biergarten, Mail Order Catalogs, and On-Line Specialty Foods and Gifts. If you’re touring Texas in the Spring, try to include a trip to Fredricksburg and The Wildseed Farms. You’ll love every minute.
