We scream. You scream. Usually it’s in the bedroom. But sometimes, we scream for ice cream, too. (Also in the bedroom, oddly enough.) Of course, we’re picky little prisses so we can’t just dish up frozen deliciousness with any old scoop. No, we need something sophisticated and chic, yet still budget friendly. (Admittedly our Tiffany, [...]
Wiener Teaze
There are three things that sum up summer perfectly. Skimpy bikinis. Big-budget superhero movies. And big, juicy wieners. Yet because we consider ourselves veritable sausage connoisseurs, we’re rather picky about what goes in our mouth. (Says so right there in our craigslist ad.) But just in time for outdoor grilling season, we’ve bit down on [...]
Red Hot Mama
We like things spicy. How else could you explain our nightstand filled with Kenny G CDs, condoms and buffalo wing sauce? But we like to eat fiery foods, too. That’s why there’s smoke coming out of our excited ears over Cita’s Salsa, a small local brand we discovered last weekend at the White Rock Local [...]
Savor The Summer
Nobody ever hopped out of a swimming pool and declared, “Let’s go get a big plate of mashed potatoes covered with fried chicken, cheese and ladles of gravy, served with a side of biscuits and cornbread and a 66-ounce Dr Pepper!” At least nobody we know. That’s because summer living is all about wearing less, [...]
Balls Dropped
For years we’ve struggled to obtain abs of steel, buns of steel and pecs of steel. Unfortunately, our favorite extracurricular activity only yielded wrists of steel. Never in our wildest dreams, however, did we ever consider balls of steel. But mostly because our mind is always in the gutter. So here we are, presenting you [...]
Party By Design
Tonight, tucked away amongst the galleries, high-end kitchen showrooms and trendy restaurants is one really big party. Welcome to the Design District Market, an evening of shopping from more than three dozen local vendors, live music and craft brews from Community Beer Company. You can also enjoy a meal from a variety of food trucks, [...]
Hemp To Be Square-Cut
We’ve gone off the deep end. Several times. Yes, as of Memorial Day Weekend, we hit more than our fair share of pool parties. But we also ate more than our fair share of burgers, steaks and raw, vegan macaroons (don’t ask). So starting today, we’re getting in shape with the help of good ol’ [...]
Crafty, Crafty Boozers
It’s amazing what a little tequila can do for one’s creativity. And even more incredible what a lot of tequila can accomplish. A couple months ago, we encouraged you to enter the Art of Patrón contest where tequila bottles are transformed into works of art and a possible $10,000 prize. So in honor of this [...]
Brunch Of The Month: Cast Iron Comfort
This Sunday is one of the best brunch days of the year. Because most of us have Monday off, that means we can ramp up our mimosa intake from our conservative six to somewhere in the neighborhood of 217. And even though TABC is ruining our buzz by cracking down on bottomless cocktails, DISH serves [...]
Laters, Taters
Unconventional marriages have gotten out of control. Just as the wacky ultra-conservatives have predicted, the slippery slope is upon us. First it was mixed races walking down the aisle. Then came the gays. Skipping. But now, we’ve catapulted right past their predictions of man marrying animal and welcomed the ultimate abomination into our great American [...]
