Another Vegan Taste of Austin Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel

The last time I was in Austin we loved Kerby Lane so much that I wanted to go back there. I've been twice - first for breakfast and then for dinner. The vegan pancake of the day the first time was cherry, which I was skeptical about, but it was genius! Like having cherry pie with my pancake.

Navigating Weddings Posted by:Lindsay S. Nixon Category: Travel Advice

I was a floater in high school (I just made that term up), meaning I had friends in various social circles but I wasn't in any one group. (I've written about it here).
