I am still getting back into the swing of feel good Fridays, it would turn out. Birthday weekends are so fun, and even more funny when your beloved says, “it’s birthday week! Birthday month! Birthday year!” We celebrated with a byob comedy show, a big, meat-sweat dinner at Dai Due with one of our favorite…
I didn’t Checklist yesterday. I didn’t have much to say, and I was very busy celebrating! But here’s one big rec for Austinites: Looking forward to Outdoor Yoga this Saturday with Shelby! And then because I published last week’s FGF on Monday, we’re only working with a few days to talk about here … but…
I am crying with laughter at this new company I just discovered (ok, discovered isn’t exactly right, as the not-unattractive founder emailed* me … so here we are). The ATX Pinery features screenprinted tees with silly/fun pineapple designs—livin’ la pura piña vida, if you will. I love it because it’s hilarious, they love pineapple puns—PINEAPPLE PUNS,…

Ah, the start of a new year. If you don’t have plans already, don’t fret, Austin is totally a cool town to be plan-less in. Aspen, not so much. Where did my Caribou Club membership card run off to? Anyway, here are my suggestions: Pre-Party: From 4-7pm, let Lovely Austin Boutique help you get ready…
Earth Day Things to Do Online: – learn how to recycle your beauty product containers and what to look for in earth-friendly face washes – buy Sigg water bottles from HauteLook (use this Invite to Hautelook if you’re registering for the first time) – shop Gilt Groupe’s Eco Chic Day, where 5% of proceeds go…
I have an existing post with things to do on New Year’s Eve, but after reading this article on First Night, I had to give it its own post. Click here to read. Basically, the giant 32-foot wooden clock tower on Auditorium Shores is for you to pin your resolutions to, and then after fireworks…
