Greetings and Salutations!
Life is good here at the Lion this fall. We got quite a bit of re-stocking and re-arranging done during the summer, and now have several new sections almost ready for business.
The biggest addition to the shop is a Texana research library. This is a special collection on loan from Texana guru Bob Dunn--be sure to check out his site for the details.
Dublin Dr. Pepper is now available at the Lion...woohoo!
We still carry the pinon coffee crunch chocolate bars. A new blend of coffee has come out that is truly wonderful: Texas Pinon. It's made by the same company that produces the candy, and it definitely is up to their usual standards. I brew some daily here at the Lion, so be sure to drop in for a cup on the house. We are selling it in 8oz. bags as whole beans, but I will be happy to grind it for you if you prefer.
What else...I've opened up a new-ish history room as well as expanded the children's section. We have quite a few new children's nostalgia and historical fictions as well as biographies--you know--the kind of books that used to assume kids could actually read and think. Many of them are great reads for the whole family and not just the wee ones. With chilly fall weather on the horizon, now is a great time to plan for popcorn, cider, and read-alouds.
Speaking of read-alouds, storytime is starting up again. I'll have the details in a later post.
Blessings,
S.
