This is how this blog began so many years ago: me posting cool events (most free; this one isn’t) in Austin because I felt like no one else knew what was going on. These days, I don’t feel very plugged-in to the restaurant scene, nor do I think I really want to start posting events…
For someone who hasn’t spent much time here since she’s moved back, the New Year’s Eve party I decided to throw basically only because I had a friend in town and didn’t want to go to the bars was pretty epic—I invited the few friends I’ve made, trusted their friend groups, and it all blended…
Ah, the month of noobs curling in squat racks and #Whole30s ruining happy hours everywhere … kidding, I’m all for anyone getting their resolution on for however long they can—something is better than nothing and all that. I don’t do resolutions other than declaring my year’s intention, but I did sign up for a few…

New fraaaands. Old fraaaands. Hostessing. Sunday Funday. House projects. Endings. Beginnings. YOLO. Spontaneity. Adventure. This week was a big one, and I am grateful for this crazy life.
Because it took two months to pick a birthday present (this Heist leather bar necklace & fringe cuff), I started this list in November—and also because, well, I maybe went a little overboard shopping for the house and need to curb my spending stat. We’ll just rely on the promise of Christmas gifts to keep…
Kerbey Lane is home to a host of adorable old houses, but you’d be for forgiven for never noticing them, even when you’re waiting for your table at Kerbey Lane Cafe.
