I took myself to a fun place for happy hour after I bopped around the creative re-use store looking for cheap art supplies.
A friend recommended this Indian restaurant in downtown Austin.
I enjoyed a couple of adult bevvies and some appetizers.
I love the idea of fusion food - this was curry queso. Dee-lish.
Mornings have looked like this lately. Sunny, slightly nippy, super beautiful. Its a promise of warm days to come. I am taking my daily walks and soaking up all the sun I can.
And evenings are just right for a quick firepit while supper cooks. It won't be long before the days lengthen, but Austin normally sees at least one big winter event before spring. After that, I guess the firepit will get safely stowed away.
Look what I found behind the art in this frame! Can you imagine? This was a major event in Austin each year, until 1998. I think we went a couple of times back in the day. I don't remember ever seeing this framed poster, but maybe Mark had it in his office. Just like when I found the Leah Schwartz pink poster, it was like a blast from my past. I wonder what it's worth?
I stored the previous art, cleaned up the frame, left the AAF poster in, and hung my chrysanthemum print. Pardon the lighting, it was evening when I got around to this project. OK, I pinky promise to leave this wall DONE and stop moving things around. Was I sad to see The Girl's middle school art finally get taken down? A little. But knowing the poster is still in there is kinda fun.
I thought the Japanese cheesecake thing sounded interesting and I tried it, but shocker, it just tasted like cookies in yogurt. Mine was slightly sweet vanilla yogurt as I cannot imagine how terrible plain unsweetened yogurt would have tasted. As it is, this was barely sweet and did not taste like dessert in the least. Yogurt is not my favorite thing - just give me the cookies.
