“not all who wander are lost”

Life. Life is an adventure. It’s the heart stopping, blood pulsing moments that make you stop and feel and for just a moment you’re infinite. It’s taking the first bite of a savory meal, letting go of inhibitions, meeting that one stranger you know will change your life forever. It’s admiring the heat of the sun on your skin, the scent of fresh cut flowers, and the way raindrops race to an invisible finish line. Life, it happens, it doesn’t stop for anyone so jump, jump in and be. Be in the moment and dive into infinity.

currently

I want to be in nature, reading poems, taking pretty pictures, having a picnic, and taking a nap on a flannel blanket. 


In reality, we are studying for finals.

let's brunch


 The best kind of Saturdays are the ones that we can sleep in as long as we want, text each other "wanna get food?", and know that what we really both mean by that is a delicious brunch at a place we haven't tried yet. This is just what happened this past weekend and it turned into a lovely start to a fun and relaxing weekend. Hillside Farmacy is a refurbished 1950s drugstore turned eatery in East Austin that specializes in delicious brunch dishes with local ingredients, creative and classic soda counter drinks, and oyster and cheese plates. It kept the charm of an old fashioned pharmacy with wooden cabinetry full of dry goods for purchase. Although we had to wait quite awhile for our food, the orange brioche french toast made it worth the wait.
