Martha and Nellie catch up after taking some time off.

While Nellie got mooned in church on Christmas Eve and closed a big chapter in her life, Martha got sea sick in Cabo, but has yet to catch Covid (that she knows of that is!)  

Although we had different experiences over the break, we both agree there are some really great new (and old) hots spots in the Park Cities and we don’t want Snider Plaza to change.
