So I went “New Me” a little early for the new year thing, but I LOVE being blonde. It’s more strawberry blonde, almost reddish, but it’s a really fun change for me. You know I LOVE Pink Salon, but if you’re looking for something, well, more calm, you might try out Avant. A friend passed…

Red House Lounge – Stortini + Stortini’s pizza = Red House Pizzeria
It’s a confusing bit of mathematical dining calculations, but basically Stortini’s lounge in the back–the Red House Lounge–was a much bigger success than the restaurant she sat in. So they closed Stortini Bistro. Then, the popular neighborhood bar stole the finer points of its sister restaurant, uh, the pizza, and expanded into the entire space.…
More Free CrossFit Workouts
But this time at CrossFit Central: The initial free workout offerings FILLED UP ALREADY, this is nine 30-person classes, so they opened up three more to new clients only: A New Free Workout Time Slot has opened for New Clients. If you are new to CrossFit Central or have never been to a program –…
Never too early to plan for New Year’s Eve
I’ve never been big into New Year’s Eve–too much money for the same bars I can go to any other night and not pay bajillion-dollar covers and wait in lines. I had friends go to a concert on NYE once, and even that I deigned to join for the same reason. I’ll happily attend house…
Rumors! La Condesa + Walton’s
A new restaurant from the Lambert’s team called La Condesa (Mexican food?) is scheduled to open in February ’09, directly across from Lambert’s at the corner of Guadalupe and 2nd Street. Chef Rene Ortiz of New York’s La Esquina (the corner, haha) will lead the restaurant and Lambert’s Executive Chef Larry McGuire will assist in…
3 Ms: New Bars I Haven’t Checked Out
In honor of the upcoming Thanksgiving break, I’m rounding up three new bars I haven’t been to yet, but would love to check out if I had the time. I hear the Wednesday before Thanksgiving is a great night for partying–less if you’re driving to Houston the next day (me), but still … Malaia –…
Ultimate Lazy Sunday Afternoon = Free Beer
That’s right, try (512) Brewery’s new Pecan Porter Sunday for FREE from 2-4pm at the brewery. 407 Radam, F200 Austin, Texas, 78745 (between South 1st & South Congress, one block south of Ben White) I’ve liked the (512) Brewery brews, so I’m willing to bet this is pretty good too. Yum, nutty winter beer! They…
Hey! Cupcake 2nd Location on Burnet Rd.
While I don’t personally care for Hey! Cupcake’s cupcakes (I MUCH prefer Sugarmama’s), in the interest of keeping up with the cupcake trend I feel obliged to point this out. Hey, Cupcake! opened a second location on Saturday, and this location is in an actual store rather than a silver Airstream on South Congress. But…
Carnival ‘O’ Pizza at Home Slice

Home Slice Carnival O Pizza Noon – 7pm The 3rd annual Carnival O Pizza hosted by Home Slice is this Saturday!…
I quote: “Free drinks and art viewing”
So said a friend of mine. About one of these events, but I can’t remember which. He had no idea Wednesday is the new Thursday this week and it is jam-packed with events. Wednesday Post-Work Agenda: 1) SHOP Join Austin designer Linda Asaf as she hosts her 4th Annual Austin Designer Sample Sale. Head to…
