Happy Monday! |

First of all, how cool is this picture? I took it three weeks ago at La Boite, during a “Grub Crawl” I did with about 25 other people here in Austin. To roughly 20 of our famed local food trailers.

I would have posted sooner, but it’s taken me about that long to arise out of my food coma.

Secondly. In addition to your kind comments regarding my last post, some of you have written me the most moving emails and/or hugged me in person. Thank you. Seriously. Thank you. You all made me feel like Mary Tyler Moore in The Mary Tyler Moore Show opener, when she’s walking along the streets, spontaneously throws up her hat, and Paul Williams blares:

“Love is all around no need to waste it! You can have a town why don’t you take it! YOU’RE GONNA MAKE IT AFTER ALL!”

I can’t believe I just now noticed the best part about this picture.

Heh.

Anyway, on that note, I have a notion that this week is going to be kind of badass. Just a feeling in my bones. So to celebrate the upcoming badass week, here are a few more of my favorite pics from that Grub Crawl.

For the occasion, we all wore leisure suits that may or may not have made us look like a maintenance crew. Or a pack of Super Mario Brothers. Either way, James Moody — that handsome individual on the far left — arranged this whole thing with Mini Cooper, who supplied us cars for our grub crawl, as well as said leisure suits.
