Snacks from Buc-ees - Video 32

4/9/2021

2 Comments

 
Figs and Flights Video #32 is Snacks from Buc-ee's!

Buc-ee's is a Texas institution. It's a chain of gas stations and travel centers with world records including world's largest convenience store and the world's largest car wash.

Sit down with Bryce (aka Mr. Figs and Flights) and I to try Buc-ee's snacks. We try the signature Buc-ee's Beaver Nuggets plus the cheddar cheese, bold and sorta spicy, sea salted caramel, cinnamon sweet, and chocolate covered varieties! And, of course, fig jam.

Figs and Flights Video #26 takes you back to Texas with me. 

Our family moved to New Braunfels, Texas, just this year. On this visit, our second, we'll explore Buc-ee's again and in greater detail. It's a beloved Texas brand and the world's largest convenience store! 

We'll visit the oldest bakery in Texas! You'll enjoy country music, my little aspiring cowboy nephew, and family time in Texas.

We took our second and final trip of this very Covid summer last week.

It was my second visit to Texas and Bryce's first.

Don't miss the corresponding {Travel Guide} for Central Texas for things to do and more about Buc-ee's!

Check out the Austin, Texas - Fav 5 {Travel Guide} for more good eats and Texas sized fun.

Bryce (my husband) and I traveled to Texas to visit with his brother, our sister in law, and our niece and nephew for some quality family time and for Bryce to help with and learn from some house flipping projects.

We spent a week in Central Texas and ate like kings and queens! We spent most of our time in New Braunfels, where our family lives, with jaunts into San Marcos and Austin.

This delicious list of {the food} in Central Texas will make your mouth water. Each item contains a link to the restaurant or brand and many of the producers sell their goods all over Texas.

Austin, Texas - Fav 5 {Travel Guide}

9/26/2017

Austin, or ATX for short, is located in Central Texas and serves as the the state's Capitol. It is known as the "Live Music Capital of the World" and rivals Portland, Oregon for ownership of the phrase "Keep Austin (or Portland) Weird".

Just last weekend I visited for a long weekend to celebrate a bachelorette party with the bride-to-be and 9 other ladies. A handful of them had visited before, and 1 woman moved from Seattle to Austin in May, so we had a handful of insider tour guides.
