Things in Texas Are Always Bigger!

Wow! It has been a very long time since we have posted something.  Yes, Tim and I are still around.  No fear boys!

Tprlogo The prompt for this post is an e-mail received earlier this week.  A Kurt from Texas contacted us, wondering what was going down in the city this weekend.  Now mind you, Kurt is a fine young gentleman my age less two years or five years less Tim's.  This boy is one TALL drink of water.  His myspace profile says 6'4".  And thats not AOL inches, thats the real deal!  Anyways, we hung out with him last night at the Saloon on Thursday Night and plan on meeting for Happy Hour in a short bit.  Good times were had by all.  When Tim and I left the Saloon on Thursday night, the bar was getting a view of some fine Texas grub!

To keep with the Southwest theme, here are a couple of fun and great places to check out.

Homemasaname2 Masa is a fairly new place on Nicolette Mall.  Located in the Target building.  I unfortunatley have not had the chance to check it out, but Tim said it is quite good.  They have an excellent outdoor patio that affords a great people watching experience.

Bar Abilene is in Uptown.  This place is well known for their fun Margaritas.  I would highly recommend becoming a part of the Margarita Club.  $25 up front, and you get a card with 10 free Margaritas.  Standard Margi costs between $6-$10 when you dont have the card.  I love a good deal!

Little Tijuana's is on Eat Street, A.K.A Nicolette Avenue.  Tim took me here one night some time ago.  Apparently some boy Tim was dating a long time ago took him here, so Tim thought it was a good idea to bring me as well.  I felt like I was going to a hand-me-down sort of restaurant.  It was like getting a used pair of cute pants from your cousin.  You really didn't want to to wear them, but they fit so damn well and showed off your best feature(s), so you wore them!  I digress.  Tijuana's is not very visually appealing upon entering, nor on the outside.  But don't turn around!  The food there is actually quite good, and it's very hipster'ish.  In all likely hood your waiter or waitress will have more piercings than you can count.  All in all a good, cheap eat with very large portions.  On your way home you may need to pick up some Imodium AD for the Mexican Hangover to come the next morning.

Jayson and Tim, off to rope some steers!
