Austin Custom Winery
Mary Charron's store truly "has it goin' on!" She (and the mouse in her pocket) is always busy getting people uncorked with her no-sulfite custom blends of wines and cordials. She even carries lots of other fine things to go with the fruit of the vine!

Black Wolf Chocolates
My nephew's company. He takes the raw cocoa bean and brings it to the peak of perfection in a fantastic chocolate bar! Be sure to check out all his offerings! Oh, and did I mention that he (Mike Maines) also has his own recording studio, "Arkain Records," does Roller Derby, has a big EE brain, plays tons of instruments... The list goes on. Yeah, so I'm PROUD OF HIM!
