2019 Marble Falls | Day 2

May 18, 2019 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Patrica and I didn’t really want to get out of bed but we forced ourselves to shower and get ready for our pretty jam packed day.

Numinous Coffee Roaster | Marble Falls, Texas

We headed to Numinous Coffee Roasters for a morning caffeine fix.

Numinous Coffee Roaster | Marble Falls, Texas | Coffee, Latte, Danish, and Bailey's

She got a normal coffee and a Danish and I opted for a latte. I brought along some Bailey’s to pour into and it was perfect.

Opie's BBQ | Spicewood, Texas

We started our twenty minute drive to Opie’s BBQ in Spicewood, Texas.

They had a plethora of meats for you to view and choose from!

Opie's BBQ | Spicewood, Texas | Brisket, Jalapeno Sausage, Tater Tots Casserole, Green Beans, Spicy Creamed Corn, Butter Beans, Pinto Beans

We got the fatty brisket, jalapeno sausage, green beans, spicy creamed corn and tater tot casserole. The pinto beans and butter beans were free along with the condiments.

We had a hard time deciding what to try first! I obviously went with the green beans and she with the brisket.

Opie's BBQ | Spicewood, Texas | Jalapeno Sausage Casing

My favourite was the jalapeno sausage. The casing was just right! I love eating the insides ad then the casing last so it was perfect! Everything else was too salty and I feel bloated now.

Spicewood Vineyards | Spicewood, Texas

We headed to Spicewood Vineyard afterward.

Spicewood Vineyards | Spicewood, Texas | Patricia Wine Barrel

They have these cute barrel chairs and I made Patricia model in them.

Spicewood Vineyards | Spicewood, Texas | Mellie Dee & Patricia

We decided and shared the Estate Grown Tasting Menu that came with seven different tastings. Also … Why is my eye so funky? Haha

Spicewood Vineyards | Spicewood, Texas | Grapevines

I wanted to get a good shot with the Grapevines in the back but if you can tell, the rock the glass is on is darker because I spilled a bit of my wine when I tried to balance it. Fail.

I found a cute little stream that did better for my glass balancing.

Spicewood Vineyards | Spicewood, Texas | Pokemon

We relaxed, listening to the stream flow and the wind blow while catching Pokemons and battling at the gym. I won!

Spicewood Vineyards | Spicewood, Texas | Cows

As we were leaving we saw cows in the middle of the road so I jumped out and took some pictures. I’ve never seen cow poop until today and man are they HUGE!

Main Street Shopping | Marble Falls, Texas

We drove back to Marble Falls and went on Main Street for some shopping.

Main Street Shopping | Marble Falls, Texas | Gelato & Souvenirs

Patricia got a gelato while I did some souvenir shopping. Ghost pepper pickles for Dad, uncured bacon jam for BIL, pumpkin and turtle and owl decoration for Mum, and a little Rizzo for myself.

Main Street Shopping | Marble Falls, Texas | Percussion Instruments

We bumped into a percussion instrument playground! I wonder if anyone ever actually comes and makes music together.

Bear King Brewing Co | Marble Falls, Texas

We made a stop at Bear King Brewery Co since I haven’t been to a brewery in a long time and it was on my list of places to take him at the time.

Bear King Brewing Co | Marble Falls, Texas | Beer Flight

They had some IPAs on the board but I decided on ones I’d love more. The heffenwizen is my favourite over the porter which I was very surprised about. Since I didn’t have a significant other to help share, I had to force myself to down them all even though I was full to the brim!

Hotel by the Lake in Marble Falls, Texas

We headed back to the hotel to relax a bit where I watched an episode of Westworld. Our hotel is near the lake which is nice but we weren’t lucky to have a room with a view.

Rae's Bar & Grill | Marble Falls, Texas

Soon enough we were out the door to Rae’s Bar & Grill to meet up with Patricia’s friend, Nancy.

Rae's Bar & Grill | Marble Falls, Texas | Steak Dinner, Spicy Mac & Cheese

Patricia and I both got steaks and shared a side of Mac and cheese while Nancy ordered a burger. I’ve been craving steak so it was perfect!

We are currently sitting at Rae’s still listening to people sing karaoke. There are actually a lot of people here so I guess it’s the thing to do on a Saturday night here.
