Saturday at SXSW


so the weather in austin went from gorgeous, warm, and sunny to practically ARTIC overnight! we woke up saturday morning with an agenda full of outdoor plans and weather in the 40s with crazy crazy winds! thank goodness we packed jackets and winter hats, because we needed them! needless to say, the outdoor venues weren't as jam-packed as the previous days. we still had a good time though, and actually still spent a good amount of time outside. we started off our time with lunch at home slice pizza....we have eaten their pizza a ton but had never actually eaten inside until today. the decor is fun and the music is loud...they give you smarties candy when you pay your bill, have sweet leaf tea on the menu, and have a "draw darryl hall and jon oates" section on their kids coloring pages. awesome! because we had to wait so long for a table, we got an appetizer AND our pizza for free. double awesome!

after lunch we headed to yard dog for the 15th annual throwdown, where we saw artists including tim easton and jon langford and the far forlorn. we took turns standing outside listening to music and browsing the shops on south congress to warm up a bit.

after yard dog, we picked up some delicious cupcakes and headed for dinner at whole foods before calling it a day.
