I want to thank you all for your love and support. It means a lot to me. It's been crazy busy. We decided to move on back to Austin now because our local market is hot, Austin market sucks, and if we put it off, it will only be more challenging at any point in the future. That means listing it...

Of those three examples, Kale pizza is the only thing you could pick out the kale and maybe have something decent to eat.

We've been considering heading back a few months a year. Even moreso now. There are many things we love about New England, notably the physical and political climate. But I was in Austin four days this Spring and had more quality conversation with friends than I've had in over two years up here...

I you infuse a watermelon with roast beef, it becomes a SUPPPPER food.

Man, I sure do miss Conch

My goiters are all benign.
