...i wish you'd take them back: they've really dragged down this place over the past three decades...
Yeah, but just think, the wife's various MLMs she keeps trying really help the community...
And the husband's BBQ skills really help the neighborhood...
They're probably the same people that insist on calling pigs in a blanket, a kolache. A kolache, being a pastry filled with fruit, is a food first made in TX by Czech immigrants. It's so disappointing when places say they have kolaches and it's actually just pigs in a blanket.
Without them, we might have been able to boot Cruz from office a few years back when Beto was running. According to an exit poll at the time, native Texans largely for Beto and those that moved here largely voted for Cruz.
The klobasniky is technically what they're referring to with the generic 'kolache', but don't get it twisted, the true kolache is Czech. If anything the false kolache klobasniky is the TX made Czech food.
The Czech Stop still fights the good fight but every Asian Donut place lists Kolache when they mean sausage roll.
I didn't realize kolaches were actually Czech. I looked it up at some point and must've read some bad info.
Dang, that timeline sounds great
