Holy Cacao!

This is just one of many posts to come about Dee and Will's visit to the Lone Star state. It's about a little place that a sweet-tooth might refer to as Heaven. Frozen hot chocolate and cake balls. Hello, cavities. We had an adventurous day filled with sight-seeing, hiking, swimming, cliff-jumping, and taco-eating... all that was missing was a sweet treat from Holy Cacao. It is one of the trailers in the Trailer Park Eatery (I'll blog about food served out of trailers in the future, promise) and it was one of the best ideas we had all weekend. The frozen hot chocolate is the perfect solution to a 105-degree day in Austin. And the cake balls... well, there's really no justification for these. But holy cacao, they were good. The different flavors included "brass balls" - chocolate peanut butter, "red velvet balls", "rabbit balls" - carrot cake, "wedding cake balls", and many more. Did I lose you at brass balls? Not surprised. And they were only 3 for $5 - made them taste even better! I will have to exercise a little self-control to keep myself from making a visit to this heavenly trailer more than once a month. I thought that after lunch at Taco Deli and dessert at this joint that Will might actually get a refund for his plane ticket back to D.C. People are not disappointed by the food served in Austin, that's for sure. And P.S. don't judge the pictures... this was following our trip to the Greenbelt where we ended up doing a 3-mile hike before finding water to jump in. Again, holy cacao!
