I freakin’ love Mangia Pizza. Large whole wheat Chicago-style crust with spinach and mushrooms, please! The other night after volleyball, we went to the Draught House to check out the (512) beers. The Wit was much lighter and smoother than the Pale, though both had pretty good flavors. But that’s not the point, the point…

(512) Brewery Grand Opening + Tasting
The initial reports on the new (512) brews at Draught House and Uncle Billy’s have been good, saying the beer is smooth and very drinkable. This Saturday from 1-4 is the free tasting and tours! I’m going to be in Dallas and I am so jealous of everyone here in Austin who can go to…
Coworking– it’s all the rage
I know not everyone out there freelances, and not everyone who freelances wishes for coworkers. I am a freelancers but don’t wish for coworkers at all, actually, as I enjoy working by myself. BUT it is fun to be around other creatives and in a work environment, hence the nationwide co-working trend. The other night…

The (512) PALE is currently available at Uncle Billy’s Brew & Que on Barton Springs Road. If I didn’t have so many events tonight and…

There are some things I don’t get about Austin. Like today when I was trying to find DaVine Foods for some sprouted grain pizza, and I stumbled into the Enchanted Forest where a man was welding some things and didn’t notice me as I walked by four times looking hopelessly out of place. Only in…
Real Estate: The Importance of an Agent
As I mentioned before, my brother and I are looking for a house. What I didn’t mention is that we’ve been through three. That is, we’ve put in offers on three, only to have something not work out. The Blue House had been on the market for months with no activity when we put in…
Real Estate: House Hunting
Much has been written about how Austin is surviving the nation’s real estate slump, and many of Austin’s houses are still selling like hotcakes. Sure, it’s not a year ago when a house was on the market for a day before it sold, but houses are still selling in two weeks in certain neighborhoods at…
Tribeza Summer Bash at Bridges on the Park
The mags are all throwing events this week (Rare’s $20/person party on Sunday, Austin Monthly’s hosting of the grand opening of Home Enchanted home store today?), but were I in town–I’m headed to NYC in less than an hour–I’d want to go to this one. Who doesn’t want to check out some downtown development, try…
