Saturday last, with most all the bakeries around town closed for the day, I set out to find french rolls, bread boules and hamburger buns to get us through the day. After 2 1/2 hours I found that Three Brothers on Belfort did indeed have most all that I needed. I spoke with Janice on …

Goodbye Miss Bonnie Even though I thought I was prepared, I wasn’t really ready to say goodbye to our Ms. Bonnie. This beautiful, funny, talented, kind and loving woman has been a part of our family for over forty years and now she is gone. There is no one like Bonnie. I remember the day …
This is a text block. You can tell this by seeing that there are words in it. I like to use the words to give you my take on things including what we have going on at the Duck. But mostly I can use this space to brag about how smart the black and white …

After 30 years we have a few stories to tell, but some stories are best told by others…. Dustin’s story None of us were supposed to be at the Mucky Duck that night, but we were. I had just spent the day in College Station studying for an exam. A friend and I decided to …
“I heard it through the grapevine” could have been our theme song during the six short weeks that passed from the time we signed our lease until June 1st, our “official” opening day. We hadn’t the time nor the energy to spread our own word about the Duck and there was no internet, Instagram or Facebook back then, …
