October (Already??!!)
Another relaxing weekend in Austin…biked for butter with Amanda, took a pretty tough step class, ran around Town Lake despite the swamp-like conditions, watched the Texas game with Omid, and attended a house warming party with Amanda. Eric was in town with his friend Dennis. On Friday night Aly, Natalie and Amanda hosted a tapas party. They prepared all sorts of tasty dips and dishes: baba ganoush, roasted red pepper hummus, olive tapanade, basil pesto, and roasted garlic (YUM). Amanda was the baker this weekend. She made brownies and blueberry muffins from scratch. Maybe I should refrain from posting when I’m hungry.
On a non-food note, did you know that the U.S. population surpassed 300,000,000 this morning?
The nation's odometer clicked over to 300,000,000 early this morning. Someone is born in this country every seven seconds; someone dies every 13 seconds; and one new immigrant arrives every 31 seconds. Put them together, and presto: the United States has added one new resident every 11.25 seconds since the U.S. Census Bureau made the last official count in 2000.
