Look out world, here we come...

passport office austin rm 301 travis county courthouse

Our options are about to expand...

My Passport had expired, the Daughter's Passport had expired and the boys never had one...  taking care of all that. We took the Passport photos at home.  

benji's cantina happy hour austin

We celebrated making it out of the passport office with Happy Hour at Benji's Cantina on W. 6th.

real queso benji's cantina austin happy hour

Just when I'd gone and said I'm not sure I like queso... Benji's was pretty good! It tasted like it was freshly made, from real cheese (not the yellow block of cheese like stuff most queso is made from)

benji's cantina austin happy hour tacos

Drinks and tacos are $4 each during HH. The tacos are served on burrito sized flour tortillas (not corn). They were large and good, but not a traditional taco. I'd definitely go back for some of them. We ordered one of each they offer (total of 8).  

matzoh cracker sad face

Matzoh Crack sad face. Had a relative over for dinner. He's in town with the Catholic church seminary program, studying to be a Paulist.  (I'm only going to show you his shoulder)

rocket shaped birdhouse

We have a bird nesting in the rocket ship birdhouse! #2 son was not as happy as I'd expected. He only wants a Hummingbird to use it, as my painting on it is supposed to indicate to all birds.

trader joe's wine not suitable for drinking

It's great having a Trader Joe's just down the street from our home. It's fun to find value priced table wine. We've enjoyed some exceptional juice for low cost. BUT, not every cheap wine is worthy of a nice dinner. Some even gets sent back into the bottle. The hunt is part of the fun.  

diy ginger beer
