Downtown Days.

On Saturday, I drove into downtown Austin for a little exploring. I finally went to see the capitol building--which is a pretty, pretty sight in the sunshine.

After I drove around for a little while, I decided it was high time I stopped at had lunch at one of the food trucks. Right after I moved here, I started a list of the ones that I really wanted to visit. So now I've finally crossed one off the list! I picked Conscious Cravings to try first. Their full menu is vegetarian, so I tried their Spicy Chickpea wrap and a mango smoothie. The wrap was delicious, the homemade sauce really takes the cake at Conscious Cravings. Yum. But the smoothie was a little depressing. I expected a deliciously cold, icy smoothie, but it was lukewarm blended fruit. I would stil go back for another meal, but I'll skip the smoothie next time.

And then I decided that I should try two foot trucks. Mostly because right next to Conscious Cravings is Holy Cacao. There's no way I'm passing up a food truck that serves delicious chocolates. I tried the Red Velvet cake ball--red velvet cake dipped in white chocolate. Obviously it was fantastic. So I crossed two of the food trucks to try off of my list last weekend.

I think I'm going to make a goal to try a new place every weekend until I finish my list--then maybe I'll have found some new trucks to try!
