Outside of work, you can likely find her curled up on with a hot cup of coffee, practicing yoga, baking, or exploring the beautiful Lone Star State (in particular, the vast and mystical West Texas desert).
Most gas stations in the middle of nowhere don’t have much to show for themselves besides dingy bathrooms and mediocre coffee. The opposite is true for Hruska’s in the tiny town of Ellinger, located midway between Houston and Austin on Highway 71. Inside you’ll find some of the most delicious + authentic kolaches and baked goods you’ve ever had, plus a charming atmosphere that lets you know you’re in the great state of Texas.
Have you ever been to Hruska’s? What about this quaint little kolache shop? Are there any other small-town bakeries in Texas that deserve to be recognized? Let us know your favorites!
