Hot & poppin’

Mary Halenza, owner of Lone Star Delights, and her family recently opened up a new store front at 108 Front Street in Kyle. Halenza has been selling her Texas treats like Lone Star Kettle Corn and gourmet fruit ices at festivals and other events, but with the opening of the new store, she also sells coffee and other drinks, so shoppers can come sit a while and visit in the kid-friendly lounge area.
