Raw Milk

I tweeted recently about the stupid FDA spending my hard-earned tax money on a stupid poster AGAINST raw milk. This is stupid because: More people were killed last year BY SHARK ATTACK than raw milk Leafy greens are FAR MORE DANGEROUS than raw milk Sugar, sugar substitutes, and white flour kill more people in the…

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…

Austin: DO IT – GO RAW at MOOJESUS!

Cookie Lounge – Hello Candied Serrano Pepper

Candied serrano peppers. Sure, the dough is good, the customizing thing is good, the choices are good … yeah, Cookie Lounge is good. But the candied serrano peppers make the place great. They make your cookie fantastic. I had the gluten-free dough, which is made with amaranth–an ancient grain that’s so super good for you.…

From Ultra Lounge to Cookie Lounge

You know Austin is big when we have an Ultra Lounge (Pangaea) AND a Cookie Lounge. One of the top 10 pastry chefs in the nation, Mark Chapman, former executive pastry chef at the Driskill, schemed up Cookie Lounge as a customizable cookie shop and delivery service. Here’s the main draw: customers choose from six…
