The Trail of Lights Foundation announced on Friday that they’ll be charging an entrance fee in 2014. Before you have a conniption, take a breath and consider the important facts:
White Linen Night Charms for Food and Wine Alliance
This guest article is by Lisa Taylor. As a longtime Austinite, it’s always fun for me to introduce people to the city I love so much. When presented with that opportunity recently, I knew I had to find a unique venue to start the Austin journey with my friend in question. Never one to pass up the chance to get dressed […]
This Small Business Blows Minds with Waterless Car Wash
The easy road is to accept life the way it is. Question nothing. Be “normal.” Austinite Ty Mahoney was climbing the corporate ladder, which at some point in many of our lives holds a magnetic allure. But he didn’t like the way he was treated, and he didn’t like the compromises being made in the name of […]

I first heard about a new non-profit called Black Fret at the beginning of 2013, when I attended their first launch party at the 29th St. Ballroom. The Black Fret team wasn’t afraid to aim big from the beginning. Their stated goal was to gain 1,300 members who each donated $1,500/year. This would allow the […]
Texas Olive Festival Beckons Visitors to Beautiful Day in Hill Country
One of my favorite day trips I’ve taken from Austin was a short 45-minute drive to Texas Hill Country Olive Co. in Dripping Springs. On a gorgeous, sunny Saturday afternoon, I enjoyed wine tasting, delicious cuisine from the bistro, live acoustic music, a tour of the olive orchard and the laid back relaxation we all […]
Stonebridge Coffee Represents One Man’s Willingness to Beat the Odds
When Justin Forgey had a grand mal seizure and was diagnosed with late-onset adult epilepsy in 2008, his life changed instantly. For the next four years, he bounced around from job to job, having seizures along the way. “It made the typical 9-5 very difficult,” Justin reflected. “I was not the most reliable employee.” But […]
1940s Big Band Musical at the Paramount This Sunday
Editor’s Note: Our giveaway is now closed. Thank you to everyone who participated! Our three winners are Richard Koehler, Justin Brosig and Laura S. Many of us feel like we were born in the wrong era. For me, I often wish I had done my growing up in the 1960’s. I can imagine myself dancing […]
Hillside Farmacy: Farm to Table Food Fringed by 1950s Pharmacy Decor
For those who don’t live on the Eastside or frequent it often, Hillside Farmacy is an Austin establishment you could easily miss. If this is true of you, it’s a shame. This farm to table eatery, known for oysters, weekend brunch and delicious sandwiches, happens to display some of my favorite restaurant decor in town. […]
