A SPECIAL CELEBRATION...
For a special girl - one who finally found out, after weeks and weeks of waiting, that she is officially a Licensed Interior Designer...who can now sign letters after her name! In case you're wondering, there was not a single question on the grueling two-day test about how to pick out wallpaper. It was one full day of questions about building codes, problem solving scenarios, business contracts, insurance and construction responsibilities, followed by a full day spent at the drafting table. Not exactly a piece of cake.
So, what better place to celebrate than her favorite cafe, The Leaning Pear? She had one of their yummy soups with a tomato caprese pannini, and I had the special of the day - prosciutto wrapped chicken stuffed with locally grown mushrooms and brie. Unfortunately, the lighting in the cafe is very mellow - not the best for food photography. Trust me when I tell you, it was delicioso! I especially loved their holiday decor - small wreaths on the windows, and gilded pears hanging on ribbons from the rafters. Simple, yet elegant, is it not? We are soooooo, so lucky, to have them here in Wimberley.

Whew! That sounds as grueling as a bar exam or CPA testing; a hearty and sincere congratulations to Lex. Is licensing state-by-state specific or can you hang out a shingle anywhere? Once again, good for you, gal!
Congratulations to your Special Girl!
Please pass on the congrats!
So nice to see the Leaning Pear -- we'll be out in the spring, lunch?

Thanks all! She's over the moon about not having to pay a fortune nor having to study for months, to take it again. She needed a bit of good news for a change.
ME - it's a nationalized test done by ASID, so good for any state.
Sherri - lunch at the Pear? You bet!
I am so excited for Lexy. Best Christmas present of the year I bet!!! Love and kisses from Aunty Gus
