Texas Day 4

Compared to the past three days, and more specifically yesterday, today was quite laid back and chill. It was nice.:

First things first, Ben's aunt came over to pick us up and take us back into Austin for breakfast tacos at Juan in a Million. His aunt and I ordered Migas (with cheese): Migas
Two eggs scrambled with tortilla chips, onions and tomatoes, served with refried beans, potatoes and two flour tortillas. OMG. delicious! Here is the before shot:
and after:
I do have to say that I am not a huge fan of ANY refried beans, but I tried these with the tortilla chips and they were actually pretty good! YUM!

After we got back from breakfast, we hung out at the apt. for a little while and headed to one of the biggest grocery stores that I have ever seen. It was HUGE! We picked up some things to get us through the rest of my time here - and the rest of the missing ingredients for cookies I planned on making Ben. We got back and watched Despicable Me (love that movie). I made cookies while sort-of watching Up in the Air (very good flick). After I made cookies, Ben made homemade guacamole! Also delicious!
Here's to snack time!!
Practical Magic was next on the movie choice list (my choice and also my bad - bad movie). Ben had gotten a bread mix at the grocery store and made that when we had gotten back and then made grilled cheese with the homemade bread in the George Foreman grill! YUM!

Seriously, I think all I do is post about freakin' FOOD! haha.

The next movie on the agenda was Pineapple Express (also lame). Then I pretty much got antsy and could not sit through another entire movie without doing something, so we took Hurley for a mini-walk around the grounds. Came back, and now playing/watching Mod Nation Racers. Derick had gotten me the game and I thought it would be fun to play when I was here. Well, it turns out that I royally suck at playing that game, so I may need some a lot of practice.

I think the rest of the game plan for the night is to chill here. Tomorrow Ben has to go back to work, so I will be entertaining myself for the day, probably sans laptop. I hope it is really nice out tomorrow - I want to be in and or around the pool. I plan on reading a lot tomorrow too, maybe catch another movie or two... It's hard to believe I only really have tomorrow left to hangout here! AHHH! Time flies when you're having fun I guess. I'm just not sure I am ready to go back to the 40-degree weather in MN. ugh.
