The criteria: -Free -Free booze / food / cool stuff There are a million and a half lists out there with free parties. Most focus on music. This is not what I care about. I care about…
Weekend Cake
Austin is getting its own Ace of Cakes this weekend with the That Takes the Cake sugar art show and cake competition. Hell yes. See what top bakers from around the country can do with fondant, the pliable confection used to create lavish, 3-D cakes, and watch demonstrations. There will be kids’ cookie and cupcake…
Friday Night Bikes (& Guinness)
Ride your bike to Mellow Johnny’s, pay $10, and be rewarded with apps, wine, and watching Lance peddle in Cali. I didn’t like the shop the one time I went, but now that I know the Juan Pelota joke, I can’t help but promote anything to do with it. Ends just in time to peddle…
Best movie ever: Growing Out
My movie opens today in LA! So I’m a little biased: I did all the costume design for Growing Out, so obviously it’s the best movie ever. But it is a seriously good movie, fun and scary, weird and smart … it’s pretty cool, and worth checking out. (Click here to buy it from amazon…

ACL … I can’t handle it
I just can’t handle ACL. I went all out last year–open to close, all three days, media tent, afterparties and aftershows–and I think I just burned myself right out. Instead, I will be walking myself to tailgating and the UT game. Trying to drive or cab anywhere south of Enfield this weekend is going to…
