This past weekend I took a trip down to Houston to visit one of my girlfriends.  I have lived in Texas for almost 9 years and have never been to Houston, how is that? We walked the town, ate good food, and sweat through our clothes on multiple occasions but I couldn’t ask for a better getaway.

We started the weekend off at a local brewery. We played jenga, drank beer and hung out until way too early in the morning! You always have to brunch when hanging out with girlfriends, so we headed to downtown and ate more than we could handle.

First we went to the Biscuit Paint Wall, which at first I thought it was going to be wads of painted biscuit dough stuck to a wall but it ended up being such a cool little spot! There was even the cutest store on the inside which had TO DIE FOR wallpaper. Next stop was the Water Wall right next to the Houston Galleria mall.  It was so much bigger than we thought and you could feel the mist spray on you when you stood in the middle.

We finished the night at the original Lupe’s, us texans sure do know how to make Mexican food and it is a staple in our everyday lives.  We finished the weekend off with ping pong and barbecue before I headed back home!
