So I started writing this a couple different times, but I never had the patience to finish it. I guess now's the time. I haven't done anything in the week since graduation. I've never been so bored in my life. I made mac'n'cheese with my brother last night because I didn't have anything better to do and the night before I made curry for my surprisingly receptive dad. Anywho, things I'll miss...
in list form! (and in no particular order, might I add):
Menna's Joint-they're the only legal dub in town! But no, really, for some reason they never caught on with my friends, unless I was dating them and forcing them to eat delicious-filled tortillas with me. Also putting fried potatoes in flour tortillas with cheese is pretty much Julie-speak for "omg eat me" in the way that doesn't mean bma.
Emo's Cafe- It was (apparently) originally Rivis Korean and American cafe, but then they changed their name to Emo's. It took the place of Mexico-to-go which was a staple for my dad and me when I lived on campus. I *just* discovered Emo's last weekend, and wow, it's phenomenal. Their bulgolgi is waaaay better than Charlie Kang's (though, Charlie Kang's does have superior choice in vegetables in their bibimbahp).
Flat's Grille-I wasn't a huge fan of their actual flats (which are essentially quesadillas), but they had pierogies and really amazing sweet potato chips. Also, the best limeade in town.
Vernors - I haven't really seen this pop outside of Michigan much. There's Canada Dry, I suppose, but it's not nearly as cough/sneeze inducing. Also, what am I going to do when I'm sick? Vernors+saltine crackers = best sick food evER
National Coney Island - best. food. ever. I want a hani.
I'm sure there's more. And I bet I'll figure it out when I'm in Tejas

on the topic of coney island, i miss it and crave it at least once a week.
on the topic of vernors, my aunt finds it in specialty groceries in DC sometimes, so perhaps you'll hunt and find some in Austin.
I just had Coney today. Soooo good! Also, I went to Zingermann's in A^2 and that was fabulous. I guess I can get Zingermann's whenever because they have that mail order service.
Hey! I <3 Menna's after you introduced me to the dub when we were studying at Shaw. Menna's is catchier than you think.
Also, I had no idea you still blog.
