Food Trucks * Austin*

June 11, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Best thing about Austin?  Food trucks!! 
See below!!  ( Look, I’m not a good writer, but I just want to remember everything I do).
Crepe Truck.  I was so sad that they weren’t open.  I wanted to try them so much!  Not only because they have incredible Italian lights outside, but check it out!  French toast crepes?!  I’m so there.

From Mighty Cone.  see below.  This was the best chicken on earth.  It was fried chicken with spicy coleslaw.  They put it in a cone, like one of those water fountain cones.  Amazing.

Check it out.  It was on one of those foodie shows.

You must underestimate me if you don’t think I can find the New Orleans anywhere.  This was the best po’boy I’ve ever had outside of there, plus it beats some of the ones I’ve had there.  These people definitely know what they’re doing.  We said we were going to try every food truck there in that certain place, but there were too many ,and we were too poor.  But since we’re going to move there, it’s all going to work out in the end.
I love food trucks.  They are full of uniqueness and amazingness.  I can’t wait for the day where I can just walk to one and eat lunch.  I am so excited for this move that I can’t stand it.  I’m so ready to leave everything here in the past where it belongs.

First Austin Post!!

June 7, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Okay.  I have to admit that I have a new obsession.  Okay, two.  Fifty Shades of Grey is my first one.  And Austin, TX is my next one.
We are planning on relocating this perfect gem of a city, and I can’t say enough good things about this town.  They have food trucks galore, a super dog-friendly city (your dogs can pretty much go wherever you do), free live music, super nice people, doughnuts as big as your head, I have pictures of most of all of this, but since it is the capital of Austin, I will start with your generic pictures of the capital building, and then go from there in future posts!  I mean, I can’t give it all away in one post!!
We walked all the way from South Congress to the Capitol building,  (okay, I have to admit that I’m slightly confused on my use of capital and Capitol, so excuse me English majors if I’m totally butchering it here) which was about five miles…
Big Red Boot in Texas…I mean why not?

Though this was funny.  We passed this on our way back to the food trucks. 

Very liberal city, but I just liked the old timey feeling of the hotel.  They had these old hotels everywhere!

Capital building.

Confederacy statue outside the building.

Taking a rest after the first leg of our five mile walk.

Inside.  This is one of my favorite pictures.

Hello President Bush!!
There’ll be more pictures from this past weekend, but wanted to start with these before seriously delving into Austin.  Because I could seriously go on forever.
And I just found a recipe for potato chip cookies…so be on the lookout for that this weekend.  Because I’m totally making them.
