Welcome to Texas, where the roads stretch as far as the eye can see, and the “middle of nowhere” is actually somewhere! Embrace the solitude and let your mind wander on a journey of self-discovery. I We saw how much landmass Texas had when we compared it to the map of Europe.
It’s no surprise that there are vast stretches of absolutely nothing. 22 miles, is almost as long as a marathon, so that’s a lot of nothing. But, on the bright side, there can be something very relaxing in driving in the desert for hours without seeing another human soul. It can definitely get you thinking about life, just like this sign.
Speed Limit
Texas roads are tricky as they are inviting. With big cars and wide-open freeways, you could find yourself cruising at a dangerously high speed. Even if you don't consider yourself a speedster, you might want to look out for cars speeding around you. In fact, the cars speeding around you will make sure to honk their horns at you if they think you're too slow.
So if you feel like taking a trip to Texas anytime soon, remember to throw caution to the wind. You might get caught for speeding, but that will only be proof that you've embraced the little Texan within you.
Food Pyramid
Texans sure love their food. Lots of meat, ice cream, pies, and of course, Tex-Mex. A combination of Mexican food with a Texan twist. They Might as well establish a new Texas diet. Why not? There are all kinds of ridiculous diets these days, the Texan diet might as well be one of them. Who wouldn't want to eat like a cowboy?
A day's menu for someone on a Texas diet would include a piece of pecan pie with the morning coffee, Mexican food for lunch, and some grilled meat for dinner. Non-potato vegetables are optional. Expect Texan-sized portions and Texas-shaped steaks.
Here Comes the Bride
This bride is ready to get down to business, and she’s to ride a horse to get there. This Texan and her soon-to-be groom decided to play things a little differently. Apparently, all of the wedding guests got to take a turn with the horse: The Lone Star version of pin the tail on the donkey.
Move over traditional wedding games; Texas has a wild twist! Forget about tossing the bouquet; here, it's all about wrangling the horse! As the bride gracefully gallops towards her happily ever after, the guests take turns saddling up for a unique reception adventure.
Oversized Desserts
This coffee cake is just another perfect example of everything in Texas being larger than life. In fact, Grandma gave him this piece of heaven to have all for himself. His cousins all got one of their own, too. Hopefully, he remembered to brush his teeth after chowing down on those boatloads of sugar!
Hey, at least it would be worth a cavity, right? Anything that’s loaded with cinnamon and sugar is definitely worth it…This cake is like a Texas-sized sugar rush, and we're not complaining! One bite, and you'll feel like you've entered a cinnamon wonderland. It's so indulgent that even the cowboys might trade in their horses for a slice!
