Road trip

14 Feb 2010

This weekend, we decided to go to Corpus Christi. Why? Because it sounded like a great place…we wanted to go there while we are living close by…and there have been super enthusiastic advertisements on the radio encouraging us to come on down! (One even aired as soon as we got on the road! Good sign!) [...]

Here we go again

In: Elizabeth

9 Feb 2010

We are leaving the downtown scene for the burbs! Moving at the end of the month and getting packed again (luckily, a lot of what we brought down here is nicely organized and ready to go thanks to all of the great plastic boxes from The Container Store). Our new place is so much bigger [...]

Our holiday adventure

In: Elizabeth

10 Jan 2010

It was back to Buffalo for Christmas but not without a fight (or should I say fLight?) First our flight to Chicago was delayed then our flight from Chicago (to Buffalo) was canceled. So what did we do? We rented a car and at close to midnight (commencing Rich’s birthday) we were on the road. [...]

UP: First, before I forget, because I already have – I treated myself to a wonderful pedicure a few weeks ago! At this place called Embellish – it was the girliest of girlie. All pink and cozy – it felt like I was getting my toes polished in the comfort of my own home. The [...]

Our First Thanksgiving in Austin
First, Richie came home from work with a harvest bouquet for me and it just made my day! He has surprised me with flowers twice now since we have been here and it is such a surprise that I never have a vase for them. I am thinking of buying one [...]

Look what I learned to do! Color! Woohoo!
Rich and I decided to start some hobbies while we are down here in Austin. So this past weekend, we took a ballroom dance lesson and learned how to waltz! It was a lot of fun! Very fast-paced but we caught on quick. The only thing we [...]

10 Nov 2009

This weekend, Rich and I were going to go to the Fair! We saw a posting for it in our elevator and it sounded like fun. So how was it? Well, the parking lot (which we paid $5 to see) was…empty and the fair was lifeless. It was seriously like something out of a scary [...]

4 Nov 2009

It was the WURST of times…which is a good thing! This past weekend, my parents came to visit us. We took them to New Braunfels for Wurstfest! It was like a celebration of silly hats, yummy food and accordion music.
And then we went to the most beautiful land of outlets. It was so magical, I [...]

Where have I been…

27 Oct 2009

Here I am! This past weekend, Rich and I continued our week old donut quest tradition and went to Gourdoughs! A shiny silver airstream of Big. Fat. Donuts. I think we have met our match. Rich got the Naughty & Nice donut which is sugar and cinnamon. I got the Bring the Heath with [...]

Punkin weather

In: Elizabeth

18 Oct 2009

The leaves down here may not be changing (the only reason why the trees are any color other than green is because they have been deprived of a lil H2O) but I know that it is perfect punkin weather somewhere. And last weekend, I saw pumpkins at the farmers market across the street. Rich said [...]
