Lake Austin Spa Resort Welcomes Yankee Chicks
(and Texan Chicks!)
For a Weekend With Sophia Dembling,
Author of The Yankee Chick’s Survival Guide to Texas
By Madelyn Miller
 Yankee Chicks and the Texans who love (or tolerate)
them will enjoy this opportunity to meet and share tales of culture shock
Dec. 5-7. This special weekend will feature a class in low-fat Texas
cooking, casual Texas-style entertaining, and an Austin Music Tour that will
include a visit to the Austin City Limits studio and the Stevie Ray Vaughn
memorial. Saturday night, Sophia Dembling will conduct a Yankee-Texan Chick
Chat, to try and do her part to close the culture gap once and for all – or
at least share a good time and a lot of laughs trying.
Spending the whole weekend laughing with Sophia is
probably worth the price alone. And you get to luxuriate in the glorious
spas, one of my favorite in the world. (and I am a cross cultural convert,
Yankee girl turned Texan)
 
For this event, the Lake Austin Spa Resort is offering
a special nightly rate starting at just $245* per person (savings of $225
per night), from December 3-10, 2003.
