This is a note from Bud Royer and isn't spam. I can vouch for him.
Another way to help. His pies are brilliant. He's a genuine character,
and his heart is absolutely in the right place.

Dear Bob:

In the midst of the despair and devastation in the Gulf coast we
are so reminded of the importance of the many, many relationships that
we have built through the café and want to express our gratitude and
thankfulness for your friendship. We like many of y'all have numerous
relationships that we are concerned about that lived in the N. O.'s
area. We think about "JB & Bud's 36-hour New Orleans" trip that they
made in May and all of the wonderful memories. Memories, which so many
of us have about trips to New Orleans over the years. We'd love for you
to share with us your favorite N. O. memory and if you have any pictures
that you have to share. We'll figure out a way to post them on our
website www.royersroundtopcafe.com and at the café. "...to all the
memories of the Big Easy!"

HOW YOU CAN MAKE "PIE THE ULTIMATE COMFORT FOOD!" & HELP FEED STORM
SURVIVORS...the café will be responsible for providing meals several
times a week for 40-60 survivors that have been given a place to stay in
the area. We'll give you a whole café pie when you make a $35 donation
toward this effort. Make your check out to the café and $30 will go
directly to paying for the food cost with $5 helping to pay for the cost
of the pie. We'll be donating our time and your $30 will pay for the
cost of the food. Thanks for helping us make "pie the ultimate comfort
food!" Please mail your check to Royers Round Top Café, PO 207, Round
Top, Tx 78954.

It has been a couple of months since we have sent out an
enewsletter and it sure wasn't because we didn't have anything to share
or say. No but, we have been tied down to getting the Austin takeout
market up and running. Checkout the menu at ~
www.coopersandroyersmarket.com and be sure to tell your Austin friends
about the market and how they can get the café's pies and OMG menu items
now in Austin! The market is located at 1601 W. 38th in Jefferson
Square, 512-467-6700. Open Monday through Saturday.
A quick update about the family ~ Micah will begin his final year
in law school and he and Ashley have several job offers to contemplate.
JB is operating the Austin market. Todd is planning to go back to UT to
work on his masters in the social school to be able to work with cancer
kids. Tara is making things happen in Round Top and getting ready for
the holiday mail order pie season. And Karen is getting the Round Top
house ready to sell in addition to taking her last class at the Bush
School on Homeland Security.
And in the midst of all this...yes, it is Labor day weekend and we
have extended our hours on Sunday 11-8 and also will be open on Labor
Day Monday from 12-3. We look forward to getting to see you and visit
with you.
