I have been so blessed with invites that I am behind on sharing all the good going on! A big thanks to USFG for our experience at the Studio Movie Grille. I got to see "Hundred Step Journey". Full review to come!Also, Design Lab is open at Oasis Austin and it is awesome. I have so much to share about its wonderful location and the artisans and designers making it come alive that, it too will require another post.

In case you didn't see it, this Saturday is the grand opening of Punch Bowl Social at the Domain. I visited the Sneak Peek and let me tell you, this is one fun place. If you come to the opening celebration from 7:00-9:00, the tickets are only $10 and ALL (yes, I confirmed - ALL) the proceeds go to the Dell Children's Medical Center. Personally, I plan on being there.And if you needed any further incentive, they have Skee Ball and Centipede!

Finally, my pals at Dog's Breakfast are at it again. With the new season set to debut early September, they have given us much to drool on with their teaser trailer. Check it out... So that's What's Happening for my Wednesday. What's Happening in yours?
