Every Monday night we taste-test cheeseburgers with an esteemed group.
This was at Casino El Camino, one of our favorite dive bars with
a fantastic juke box and burgers that take over an hour to arrive at your table.

Bob is scientifically gauging the Amarillo Burger
(3/4 lb patty, roasted serrano chiles, jalapeno cheese and cilantro mayonnaise).

Alina was the first friend I made in Austin and I feel so lucky.
She is super-talented and fun to be with.
We’ve had many great conversations while driving around Texas.
We’ve formed our own little BBQ Brigade (two former vegans…heresy!).

Happy happy birthday to one of my favorite persons!

My friend Melissa and her hubby Randy had Olivia in March.
Melissa is a fantastic interiors and architectural photographer.
(check out her website: Melissa Castro Photography).

Being a photographer, she’s taken, like, a bazillion photos of Olivia,
but what she really wanted was pix of her and Olivia together.
So, here it is, the many faces of Miss Olivia and her mum.
The very last one says it all!
