Got these updates in my inbox and thought I’d share. The loyalty program at The Roaring Fork seems like you could rack up some rewards fairly quickly. I went ahead and signed up. Roaring Fork Restaurants Launch “RF Rewards” Program Austin, Texas (June 30, 2009) – The Roaring Fork, with two locations in Austin including [...]

The Hub – Burger in The Backyard
Posted in Articles, Restaurant Reviews, tagged Burgers, Outdoor Dining, Pet Friendly on June 1, 2009 | 2 Comments »
First off, I apologize for the lack of updates in the past few weeks. It’s been hectic around here and although we have been MIA, we’ve had the opportunity to try a few good spots, and one of them was The Hub off of 2222. Dropped in a few weeks ago to enjoy the weather and treat ourselves to a [...]
The Quick and Easy Winery Tour
Posted in Articles, Wineries, tagged Hill Country, Vineyards, Wine on May 3, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Recently our friend Dallas came in from Houston for a visit. We only had about half a day to get out and explore and had already talked about doing a mini wine tour. The main criteria was to keep it fairly low key. Just twenty minutes outside of Austin awaits the perfect option. We hit up the Mandola Estate Winery and Driftwood [...]
Sifting Through Austin on a Mini-Break
Posted in Articles on April 21, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Hi there, I wanted to post a quick update. I have had a bit of a change in routine lately and have taken a brief pause from updating the blog but will be back very soon with new adventures. The change is definitely a good one as I’ve taken on a new job after being off for a period of time [...]
An Urban Adventure Race in Austin
Posted in Articles, tagged High Trek Adventure, Scavenger Hunt on April 2, 2009 | 5 Comments »
Ready for an Amazing Race type adventure right here in Austin, TX? I read about this urban adventure race and scavenger hunt and thought I would pass the info along. I participated in one similar to this as part of a corporate function. It was on a much smaller scale and only covered a few block radius, but it [...]
Zilker Garden Festival
Posted in Articles, tagged Botanical Gardens, Festival, Zilker on March 30, 2009 | 1 Comment »
On our mission to work-in at least a bit of exercise when and where we can (it does not seem to be happening at the gym lately), we parked at the Spy Glass entrance to the greenbelt and trekked over to the Zilker Garden Festival yesterday. They host it annually at the Zilker Botanical Gardens and it was another beautiful day [...]
Keepin Austin Spicy

Today we went to the Keep Austin Spicy Festival at Fiesta Gardens. There was a pretty good turn out for a first time festival. It was much smaller in scale than some of the other events I’ve seen hosted at Fiesta Gardens. For instance the Austin Celtic Festival takes up the whole park and is much larger, with [...]

Posted in Articles, tagged Dai Due, Food Blogger Bash, Uchi on March 19, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Another great reason to live in Austin…on Monday we attended the first ever Food and Wine Blogger Bash that was hosted at the Whole Foods culinary center. The event brought together mostly local, but some national food bloggers and writers. There were cooking demonstrations, a wine tasting challenge, music and of course good food and libations. The [...]
Support Your Local Texas Brewery
Posted in Articles, tagged Brewery, HB 2094, Tours on March 16, 2009 | 3 Comments »
This was sent to me from Saint Arnold’s brewery and is in reference to a piece of legislation that is being proposed that would allow small breweries to sell their prodcuts to you on-site. It would be nice to “shop” after a tour, just like you can after visiting a winery. Large distributors are [...]
Chopsticks: How-To
Posted in Articles, How-To, tagged Chopsticks, Etiquette, How-To on March 15, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I am an absolute novice when it comes to wielding a pair of chopsticks. Every time I think I’ve got it down, a few months will pass and I’ll get another opportunity to use them, then it seems like it is right back to square one (fumble, fumble). While I probably have more opportunities to practice with [...]
