Due to some unexpected and sad circumstances (more on that later), I ended up in Arkansas with my family for the end of the conference as well as the first day of what was supposed to be a mini-vacation in Austin for Jack and me.
But I finally rejoined my husband in Texas, and we had a day and a half to spend in Austin. Though the weather dropped from the 80s to the 50s when I arrived (negating my plans of sitting by water in the sun all day), we still had fun.
Some highlights:
- tacos and queso and bottled cokes at Torchy's food truck on 1st
- a loft just off South Congress, where Austin keeps things weird
- coffee with JR at Dominican Joe
- Amy's Ice Cream
- Silver Linings Playbook at the Alamo Drafthouse
- Polvos Interior Mexican
- Mary Quinlan Park
- The flagship Whole Foods
(Meanwhile, Upland got a solid 10-12 inches of snow.)

Bluebonnets. Sigh.
Everybody cool started traveling to Austin as soon as I left!
So glad you got to spend some time there and I'm super jealous of your Torchy's taco. Miss those things desperately.
It was so, so, so much fun! I love that we got to hang out and hope it's the first of many times! Much love to you guys!
Tada, I always think of you this time of year when you and Sweater fell in love. :)
(Amy, get her to tell you that story.)
