Totally apropos! Just found out today is America Recycles Day, which is the perfect segue into the news about Bad Seed Promotions’ Garden Party, which was created to bring some attention and support to Austin’s urban and DIY gardening community. It’s a Roarin’ 20s theme (think Gatsby, feathers, boas, flappers, pearls, jazz, white suits) with…

Halloween Haunts: Where to Get Your Spook On
I’ve been remiss in not posting Halloween to-dos sooner, but Halloween, like other big holidays, just wears me out sometimes. I LOVE LOVE LOVE costumes, but I like themes. I like to get creative on a theme, not just have the whole wide world as possibilities–it’s just too much. Anyway, here are some Halloween haunts…
Man Shops Globe / You Hang Out in Your Neighborhood
Talk about a dream job … this dude travels around the world, picks out cool stuff for Anthropologie stores around the world, and now they’re filming him doing it. “Man Shops Globe” debuts October 7 on the Sundance Channel. October 6, Anthropologie at 601 North Lamar Blvd is hosting a preview party from 7-9pm with tons…

Thursday Tidbits, Tweetups, Trailers, and Temptation (buy your date)
This Thursday is jam-packed with things to do. After an amazing birthday dinner at Olivia, that date and I are headed back Thursday for a patio party with drinks and appetizers celebrating their Bon Appetit Top Ten Best New Restaurants IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY nod. Since I was too busy stuffing my face with mussels,…
Imperia 2nd Anniversary Party – Free Cocktails & Sushi
I can hardly believe it was 2 years ago that I hit up Imperia’s grand opening–and almost immediately bounced because it was SO CROWDED. One of my fave happy hour joints sure knows how to throw a party, but I can only hope for my own sake (and the sake of my free-sushi-loving-wallet) that this…
Finally, a hot Tuesday
Hot as in happening, kids, because we all know this Tuesday will be hot as hell as our 65th day in a row in triple digits. (Literally. 65th.) Big ticket: Matisyahu’s “Light” CD Release Party Starts at 9pm at Speakeasy, and here’s the big schtick: Matisyahu will be attending. He’s ready to meet and mingle…
Party with Nerds: Software Advice Rolls Out Its Own Welcome Mat
I love the invite to this party, with gems like “Looks like someone at City Hall forgot to organize a parade for us …” I mean, sometimes I feel that way. Like when I first got my pullups in CrossFit, where was my parade?! Anyway, Software Advice, a free online resource for software buyers, has…
Andy Warhol’s Birthday and More Bananas
Thursday, August 6th marks the 81st anniversary of Andy Warhol’s birth. Don’t know why it’s a banana and certainly not AW style, but this birthday party thrown by Massive Beacon, the organizers of ATX Emerge and ATX Converge features free pizza, on-site “live garment printing,” and potentially free booze, so who’d complain? A good way…
Love and Rockets Tribute … or, an excuse to hit Malverde
Any excuse to get to Malverde and sip an El Cubico or Alma Blanca: Tuesday night, check out the Listening Party for a tribute record. I don’t even know Love and Rockets, but apparently they’re a BIG DEAL. “New Tales to Tell- A Tribute to Love and Rockets” features covers of Love and Rockets classics…
