In the lovely month of March I took a short blogbreak. Never done that before. It was good, and I spent part of the time in Austin where, even though I drove too fast on some steep narrow roads and some nights drank too much beer on the back porch of my cabin, I also did a little bit of writing. This is from about two weeks ago:
I find myself in Austin and I called an otherwise extraordinarily witty and intelligent friend back in Houston to ask what she does here - any special restaurants I've never been to, that sort of thing. She says..
"Yeah I think there's this place called like Saltlick or something. They have you know. Um. Meat. Meat and cold slaw stuff. And pickles. And dumplins'."
I laugh.. "dumplins???
She says "Um. I meant to say rolls."
