Texas State Fair FoodiesIn BreakDrink episode no. 33 of @BreakDrink we bring our conversation back to the Lone Star State to talk about the foodie life at the Texas State Fair. Although this episode is light and delightfully tasty talk about deep-fried food, TX history, and more -- we wanted to take a minute to pass on a few resources to take action in light of recent US events. After last weekend’s mass shootings, we would be limited not make mention that our hearts go out to the community in El Paso, TX and Dayton, OH. We no longer need thoughts and prayers -- we need action.
