We walked to the Sunset Valley Farmers Market this morning. It’s about a 3 mile round trip from Hillary’s apartment, so we got in a little exercise as well. Nice day but very windy. Picked up a few things: Sgt Pepper’s Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Sgt Pepper’s Smoked Tomato Dipping Sauce: They use [...]

The Last Hurrah
Posted in Articles, tagged Cupcakes, Sugar Mama's on March 1, 2009 | 6 Comments »
We ceremoniously and symbolically went out with a bang last night. Clothes are fitting a little snug here and there and it is time to get back on track. Seems to come in cycles and each moment we determine it is time to stop the badness, we tend to try and get in one last really good and really [...]
Zocalo in The Neighborhood
Posted in Articles, Restaurant Reviews, tagged Clarksville, neighborhood dining, Zocalo on February 26, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Last Wednesday night we had ambitious plans to knock out a couple more of the stops on the Saint Arnold’s scavenger hunt and then get a bite to eat at Cipollina. We have never been but I was enticed to go–let me tell you why. Trekking through the neighborhood the other day on our way to Fresh Plus grocery, there [...]
A New Roaring Fork Location at Quarry Lake
Posted in Articles, tagged Old Austin, Quarry Lake, Roaring Fork on February 11, 2009 | 8 Comments »
I’m a big fan of the Roaring Fork downtown, so when we were driving past the intersection of Braker and Stonelake this weekend, I did a double-take. Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw a sign that looked like the Roaring Fork logo and after a second look, it was confirmed. [...]
A Cup of Joe
Posted in Articles, Coffee Shops, tagged Coffee, espresso on February 8, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Growing up I always loved the smell of coffee. It was never prevalent in our household but on occasion my aunt would make me and my sister a cup of mellow roast instant coffee. Gourmet stuff indeed! But I do remember enjoying the flavor and ceremony involved. Later on in life I realized I just [...]
Flash Mob @ Whole Foods

This weekend a flash mob event took place at the flagship Whole Foods store on Lamar. Flash Mob Austin coordinated the event and it sounds like there were 200 – 300 participants. I bet it would have been a sight to see. We had just missed it as we were very near Whole Foods around [...]
From The Farmers Market to The Screaming Goat
Posted in Articles, Farmers Market, tagged Farmers Market, Sunset Valley, Sweetish Hill on January 31, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Today was too nice of a day not to be out and about. The temperature was perfect and the skies were crystal blue. We hit the road early and made a quick pit stop at the Sunset Valley Farmers Market. We tend to get the same things each time we go. First we pick up [...]
Testing out the Soup Peddler
Posted in Articles, Home Delivery, tagged Home Delivery, Soup Peddler on January 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I’ve always been curious about the Soup Peddler. You hear stories about the early days when he would peddle his soups around downtown and south Austin with ice chests in tow. The enterprise has grown since then and they now offer delivery to a much broader territory and in more conventional modes of transportation. The [...]
Welcome to Sifting Through Austin
Posted in Articles on January 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Welcome! This is our first post in our brand new shiny blog. We love the Austin food scene or maybe we just enjoy hangin-out and discovering a good bite to eat. One of the great things about Austin is the number of independently-owned restaurants and the diverse offerings available, not only in the variety of foods [...]
