This week is my last full week before winter break. My schedule has become very spacious, so I've decided to set goals for the book I'm reading, Blue Raven, by Gerald Vizenor, about two Anishinaabe brothers serving in France in World War I: at three chapter per day.
I also have plans to reorganize my sewing room and office area this week. At the beginning of next week, I'll have a lot of final papers to grade and final grades to calculate, so I'm not going to begin my winter break-designated projects just yet.
Below are some photos of my most delightful meal in Austin: homemade gnocchi and mozzarella cheese from a food truck at a food truck park on Barton Springs Road that we visited after the botanical garden. I loved that the Italian food truck had its own mobile herb garden.
We also paid a visit to Blue Cat Cafe. We just petted the cats and hung around. They were not serving food at the time. It seems like the cafe has irregular hours right now, and it seemed a bit disorganized, but we enjoyed seeing the cute cats. In the front yard there was a cemetery for the cats that had passed away, with graves adorned with stones, cacti and succulents.
