Tonight I will be coaching a middle school track meet at St. Andrew’s. So don’t expect a wild what-to-do-list.
But if I weren’t coaching tonight, I’d playing some pickup volleyball at Zilker! Normally I don’t know anyone that goes out on Tuesday afternoons, but my friends are, so if you have any desire to play sand volleyball with less people around than Saturdays and Sundays, now is your chance.
Other things of note: you should definitely check out Extraordinaire. I went by there when it had just opened four months (and four days) ago, and the shop is a delight. It’s a “home” store in the sense that it has items for the home, but the idea behind it is to infuse daily living with design. The owner alternates between calling it a home store and a design store, but also sells chocolates and tea!
The owner is almost always there and loves talking about the products he’s chosen for the treasure-filled store. He imports lots of lines from Europe, and only carries artisanal American lines. Filled with different but astoundingly beautiful contemporary pieces, Extraordinaire is aptly-named and worth a stop at the corner of 6th and Lamar.
