Hope Uncorked at Saks Fifth Avenue
Saks isn’t usually my post-work happy hour spot, but tonight they’re hosting a winetasting called Hope Uncorked to benefit Fertile Hope of Austin. The benefit is from 5-8pm, with 100% of the proceeds benefiting Fertile Hope of Austin. The Executive Director of Fertile Hope in NYC, Lindsay Nohr Beck, will be there too. The event…
Free Beer Fests Saturday + a workout
TONS of stuff going on this Saturday. So much that I can’t even remember what to blog about. Well, to be honest, there are the only a few things I might be doing anyway (and don’t be fooled, I won’t be doing ALL of these): Saturday morning: Try Crossfit Women’s Workout Crossfit is all the…
Watch the VP Debates!
I can’t remember the last time I heard so much buzz about Vice Presidential candidates debating … or really about them debating at all … most people haven’t cared that much. But this is a different year and a different type of election, so here are two places to watch the debates (if you’re not…
Red River Beach Party
This is the most ridiculous/awesome/Austin-y thing I’ve heard of in awhile. Only in Austin would two clubs get together, rent slip-n-slides, inflatable pools, and moonwalks to create a beach party, in late September, on Red River, the street. Loooooove it, love Austin. And there are good bands playing too, for a mere $5! Here for…
Lanai’s Grand Opening!
So I’ve been talking about how awesome Lanai is and how you should go for awhile now … almost a month? But they’re finally hosting their Grand Opening party Thursday night! From 8-10pm, there will be free “tastings” of their signature cocktails and apps. At 10, the place morphs into “Shy Town Night” with DJ…
Drambuie Den Tonight & Tomorrow
TWO things to do on Tuesday?! Well, you could actually do this tonight too, as it runs both Monday and Tuesday. It seems like everyone is promoting this event, but then again, who doesn’t want to be a part of free drinks? Drambuie is doing up Pangaea both nights, but you know I love Austin…
(512) Brew Kick-Off Party at Zax
Yeah, yeah, I’m still in Ecuador. But if I was in Austin, I’d head to Zax this Wednesday for the (512) Brewing Kick-Off Party … owner and brewer Kevin Brand will be on hand starting at 6pm to mingle and chat about his new brewery, and anyone who buys a (512) Brew gets a commemorative logo…
Cheap/Free No Eating/Drinking Activities
These are some tough criteria! But I’ve been pondering this for awhile, ever since I trekked to SIX lounge for a cute guy I met who bartends there. “Going out” is easy. Everyone does it. So you can conceivably arrange to meet organically, with minimal effort, while you’re out. Or at a restaurant. It’s low-commitment,…
I’ve got a Thursday/Friday agenda!
Hipsters, go: Thursday … 6-8pm: Tribeza happy hour at Valentine’s Too (3801 N Capital of Texas Hwy in Davenport Village). Complimentary hors d’oeuvres, desserts, and wine from Davenport Liquor plus prizes including gift certificates to the Four Seasons Hotel and Viva Chocolato make for an excellent evening/shopping affair Providing for Paws … 6-8:30pm: A new…
