CrossFitters everywhere … including MooJesus!

I can’t remember if I’ve spoken on xlyssa before about MooJesus! … I know I have written about it here and here and here on thisislifeinaustin. Anyway, MooJesus! is the raw milk dairy we go to in Seguin, Texas, about an hour-ish away from Austin. It’s a little slice of heaven, and the next time…

In what he describes as an effort to forge a deeper connection with his clientele while bringing the “local is better” message home, Chef James Holmes of Olivia (one of my top ten must-dos in Austin) has launched…

It is still sad. I need someone in Aspen to fix it! Where’s my Austin Sports Therapy Dr. Kyler in this ski town? I need ART, myofascial release, sports massage … somethin’!
