TWO things to do on Tuesday?! Well, you could actually do this tonight too, as it runs both Monday and Tuesday. It seems like everyone is promoting this event, but then again, who doesn’t want to be a part of free drinks? Drambuie is doing up Pangaea both nights, but you know I love Austin…
Wine and Women
You know how we can never find anything cool to do on Tuesdays? Cameron Hughes wine (do you know their story?) and Austin Woman magazine are hosting a networking event at Land Rover this Tuesday featuring Jessica Kogan, one of the founders of Cameron Hughes wine. From 6-8pm, the event features tons of networking opportunities…
Sugar Mama’s Bakeshop
Mmmmm more cupcakes. I know I’ve blogged about quite a few cupcake places, and my reviews are usually pretty good. I mean, it’s pretty hard to screw up a cupcake. (Well, that’s not really true, because Hey! Cupcake figured out how pretty easily) But after all the buzz Sugar Mama’s Bakeshop has been getting, in…
Sunday’s Gluten Clash
Presuming Ike doesn’t cancel everything–and that’s a big presumption, since the UT-Arkansas game is already off (though this hoopla continues to amaze me … there’s only a 60% chance of rain tomorrow?!)– this Sunday looks to be a huge Gluten Clash, pitting the gluten-free Got Guts 5K vs. gluten-heavy Italian Festival: Got Guts 5K Run,…
(512) Brew Kick-Off Party at Zax
Yeah, yeah, I’m still in Ecuador. But if I was in Austin, I’d head to Zax this Wednesday for the (512) Brewing Kick-Off Party … owner and brewer Kevin Brand will be on hand starting at 6pm to mingle and chat about his new brewery, and anyone who buys a (512) Brew gets a commemorative logo…
Ecuador: Montezuma’s Revenge?
Yes, I was enjoying the food. Perhaps a little too much? Yesterday I felt debil –meaning I was bedridden with a debilitating tiredness, stemming probably from dehydration (a factor of the nine hours spent on a bus Sunday … didn’t want to have to pee!). I slept most of yesterday, thought the worst was over, but…
Food and Fashion in Ecuador
I met someone right before I left who said, “Oh, the food in Ecuador is wonderful!” Now, people say that about Spain and I wholeheartedly disagree (I don´t like jamon, so I´m sort of screwed), but here the food is pretty delicious. Right now we´re on the coast, so we´re chowing down on super fresh,…
Hello from Ecuador! + free yoga by lululemon
I never intended to be on the internet so soon in Ecuador, but I, um, forgot to send in an assignment, so I had to take care of that from a bajillion miles away. I can´t even begin to describe Ecuador … it´s a bajillion miles away. It has so much natural beauty bordered by…
I’m Off To Ecuador!
Tomorrow morning bright and early I’m headed to the airport to fly to Ecuador! I’m meeting my brother, who is already down there, for 8 days of adventures with volcanoes, hiking, and surfing. I can’t wait! Of course, I won’t be blogging because I have limited access to the internet. I’ve posted a few entries…
