NEW BITES TO TRY

The first thing on our to-do list last week was a trip to the hearing aid place in San Marcos, since poor Hubby handed one of his hearing aids over to a certain someone for safe keeping whilst in Portugal, and that certain someone managed to lose it! We normally go to Blacks Barbecue whenever we are over there, but since we had gorged on barbecue the day before at Calvin's birthday party, and still had leftovers, I tasked John with finding something new for us to try. He came up with this quaint little Mediterranean cafe called Nostimo.

Pretty tasty, I must say.

The following Friday, when we went back to pick up his two new hearing aids (of course they had discontinued his original models, so we couldn't just replace the one) we were planning to try the latest creation from the dynamic duo who brought San Marcos two kolache shops, Pie Society, and Zeligs.

Unfortunately, they were still in the middle of training their new staff, and wouldn't be open until the following week. We were so sad, since we had been salivating over that curry ever since reading about it in a magazine at the doctors office!

Then, just yesterday, we finally got around to trying Verde's Tacos -- the latest inhabitant of the little creekside joint that sits behind Cypress Falls Event Center here in Wimberley, where our daughter Lex got married.

When it comes to tacos, I guess I'm kind of old school traditional, and feel like I get a lot more for my money at my old stand-by, Mima's. However, if you're looking for atmosphere and a great summer hang out? Well, this place would be hard to beat!
