AISD set for big reveal on bonds by Bobbie Jean Sawyer
AUSTIN - Bowie theater and music arts directors, who recently presented their case to AISD officials concer ning the overused and rundown state of their arts facilities, and the need for renovat i ons , w i l l know soon if they made the first cut for funding in a potential Robert Schneider 2013 bond program. AISD public relations coordinator Yesenia Garcia said the Citizens Bond Advisory Committee is in the process of preparing information on the identified potential projects being considered for the bond money. A list of projects being considered will be available on January 22, the
day of the next AISD public hearing on the potential bonds. Citizens can voice their opinions at that January 22nd public hearing, to be held at Crockett High School at 6:30 p.m. Still another public hearing on the potential bond is slated for January 29th at Reagan High School at 6:30 p.m. Part of the overall bond discussion is the potential for fine arts facility improvements in the district. Theater and music department directors at Bowie High School have been outspoken about the need for renovations in the school’s fine arts department. Greg Goodman, director of fine arts for AISD, led a presentation on the potential fine arts bond relief for the entire district at a public hearing last month, and said the response from the public and the Citizens Bond Advisory Committee has been See AISD on page 3

AISD has leftover bond money to spend by Bobbie Jean Sawyer
AUSTIN - AISD has some extra money left over from previous bond programs and is looking for ideas on how to use it. Members of the public will have the opportunity to offer their ideas to the Austin Independent School District (AISD) Board of Trustees during a public hearing Monday evening at 6:40 p.m. at the Board Auditorium in the Carruth Administration Center. The hearing will focus on possible board action regarding the usage of contingency funds from the 2004 and 2008 surplus bond program. The board is considering reallocat-
ing approximately $7.1 million in contingency funds. Robert Schneider, a member of the AISD Board of Trustees who represents most of the Oak Hill area, said the contingency funds serve as a safety net for the bond program. “The contingency funds are built into our bonds as a way to make sure that costs overruns or inflation and those types of things don’t eat into our ability to provide what we said we were going to provide in a bond package,” Schneider said. “So what’s been going on for several years now with the economy being the way it is—with interest rates and those
types of things—we’re actually able to complete bonds under what we thought we might be able to do. We have money left over in contingency and we’re trying to allocate how those funds get used.” Schneider said the additional funds are often used for projects that were passed over in the original bond. “When we realize that we have money available through the contingency funds, we’ll go back through and take a look at a list of things that are still outstanding in some way,” Schneider said. “There might be schools that need roof repair work that were at the bottom of the list

encouraging. “I’ve only heard very positive stuff about the fine arts and that people appreciated the detail of the needs in the report,” Goodman said. “They felt good about the ask and the justification for fine arts.” Goodman said he identified the district’s fine arts needs to total around $93 million but approached the Citizens Bond Advisory Committee requesting approximately $31 million. Betsy Cornwell, theatre director at Bowie High School, said recently that the theatre department is plagued by both space and maintenance issues. “Walls are no longer holding shelves, the plaster is falling off the walls because of water leakage and, as far as space, we’re having to beg to store the accumulation of 25 years of props and costumes almost any place
we can find on campus,” Cornwell said at an AISD December 6 public hearing held at Bowie. “We just don’t have enough space.” Bowie High School orchestra director Giovanna Cruz said at that meeting that the school’s limited rehearsal space is a major obstacle for her students. Goodman said in many ways, Bowie’s fine arts department is a victim of its own success. The programs are so popular among students the facilities can barely contain those enrolled, as evidenced by the Bowie marching band, which enrolls over 400 students in a facility built for about 120. Robert Schneider, a member of the AISD Board of Trustees who represents most of the Oak Hill area, said some board members are pushing for early completion so the bond may be included on the ballot

on May 11. “There’s a strong desire by some board members to have this be done in May of 2013. To do so, we have to make a firm decision on exactly what’s in the bond, the proposition language, that kind of thing, by March 1 of this year,” Schneider said. “So literally it leaves less than 60 days to make up your mind on what you want in the bond, how much, what the propositions are going to be, the whole thing. That’s really one of my concerns. Sixty days is not a lot of time and it’s certainly not what, historically, the district has done in terms of preparing bonds to send out to the public.”

before. In other words, they didn’t quite make it to the top of the list of being specified for exact work, but they were on the list of things that were being considered.” Schneider said the surplus money is primarily reserved for maintenance issues within schools, such as roof replacements and air conditioner improvements. “The primary purpose of the use of the contingency funds is to make sure they honor the intent of the original bond. So if you have money that’s left over that was intended to be for repairing roofs or all those
kinds of issues that we identified in the original bond, it’s perfectly legitimate, the bond council has told us, to go ahead and use those monies to do the additional work because we have the money available,” Schneider said. Bond money is often the only saving grace for schools with serious maintenance issues, Schneider said. “Unfortunately the pattern has been that when we have maintenance needs they fall to something like a bond,” Schneider said. “The end result is you’re left with schools Continued on back page

Our winter trip—to the tune of ‘The Beverly Hillbillies’ theme by Roger White
The End of an Era
Postal Annex will be changing hands I know that sounds a bit grandiose but it is, indeed, the end of an era in my life. After 13 years of running the Postal Annex store, I’m ready to move on. As of January 21, I will join the ranks of the retired! This has been a very enjoyable era for me. Before I bought the store, I was actually rather reclusive. I didn’t think I liked people much. I found out I was wrong. The people who came through my doors became my community. I have met and associated with so many dear people through these years. They began as customers but I came to view them as friends. I came to know them and their families’ stories and they came to know mine. We commiserated with each other’s worries about our kids and our health. We joked about our husbands. We saw each other through periods of grief and illness, shared our pride in our families’ accomplishments, and enjoyed a lot of laughs over these years. Truth be told, these last few years a lot of my stories amounted to whining about my various aches and pains. With the back and neck problems I have, moving boxes all day really isn’t smart. These last few years especially, we’ve become a bit of a do-it-yourself store. So many of our customers began to lift their boxes onto the scales and even carry them to the back so I wouldn’t have to. I finally had to admit it was time to give it up. And just as I made that decision, that I was finally ready to retire, God sent a lovely young man through my front door who was looking for just such a store to buy. His name is Jose Ancer. We both felt this transition was meant to be. He is just beginning a new era in his life. Those of you who came in during Christmas may have met him. He worked with us during December while we were waiting for Postal Annex to approve him to take over my franchise as well as all the other details of the sale. We didn’t want to announce him as the new owner until we were sure the deal would go through. We have finally ironed out all the details and Jose will become the owner on January 21. Jose is an intelligent, pleasant young man who has run a similar business before, with much success, even winning awards in his field. I am confident that he will make a complete success of this store. I know he will continue to give the same level of customer service that we always tried to give. Please don’t worry that he will make sweeping changes right away. He has no such plans. He intends to proceed cautiously. I think back to when I bought the store from Rick Morgan back in 2000. Rick was a jovial man with a big, booming laugh. He was a man’s man, talking hunting and fishing and such. When I took over, there were quite a few of his customers (mostly male) who resented me, and felt compelled to tell me so. They didn’t like me bringing in all these gifts and making the store so “girly”. They terrified me. But over time, they got used to me. Many of them are still customers and not nearly so terrifying now that I know them. My point is, I know transitions are hard. No one hates change more than me. But I know that, as you get to know Jose, you will become just as fond of him as you have been of me and “the Girls”. And what about the Girls? Diane and Denise are going to stay on with Jose. Gloria will stay a short while until he finds new employees, then she, too, will join us retirees. I want to thank all our customers for their business and their friendship. I will miss seeing you all. I get weepy when I think about it. I wish you all happiness and prosperity in the coming year. And I thank you for this era of my life.

Come and listen to a story ’bout a man named Rog, For their winter getaway got the car out the garage, Packed the family up and drove to Santa Fe, But here’s some weird stuff that happened on the way. ’Bout five in the morning just outside Fredericksburg, With temperature readings like an Arctic iceberg, Steering got squirrelly and a tire went POP, Two hundred bucks later we leave the tire shop. On I-10 past Sonora I decide to take a snooze, Wifey’s at the wheel, what have I got to lose? I wake and we’re smack in the middle of nowhere, Fifty miles from a town with no gas to spare.
Fort Stockton’s now roughly thirty miles away, With the “Empty” light on we both begin to pray, Then out of nowhere an Exxon comes in sight, We laugh and we cry and soon forget our plight.
out to play, We realize we’re now about a thousand in the hole, For Christmas, we figure, we’ll give the girls coal.

City of Austin news
Return of the “Best Offer Ever� provides largest rebates in history Austin Energy has launched the return of the Best Offer Ever by once again offering an opportunity for residents to receive both rebates and a loan to make energy-efficiency improvements to their home. The rebates can be as much as $3,200 or more – the most ever offered – and cover as much as a third of the cost of making whole-house improvements to a home including installing a new air conditioner. The remainder of the balance can be financed with a low-interest loan from an Austin Energy participating lender. The Best Offer Ever – financed in part by a federal grant awarded Austin Energy – is available through March 31,2013 when prices are lower and heating and air conditioning companies have greater availability for energy-efficiency work. All of these benefits add up to huge savings for residents including cutting costs by a third for air conditioning use in the summer with a new, efficient unit. Incentives include Austin Energy’s standard rebates plus a $200 winter bonus and an additional $500 rebate from the federal grant. Texas Gas Service customers may also qualify for up to $500 in rebates for a total of as much as $3,200 when customers make all the recommended Home Performance with Energy Star im-
provements. Recommended whole house improvements such as adding insulation in the attic, sealing leaky duct work, adding solar screens on windows hit by direct sunlight, and installing a new air conditioner average about $9,100. With the $3,200 in rebates paid directly to the energy efficiency company or credited to the customer by the company, customers have the option of paying off
or financing the balance themselves or applying for a 3.99% interest loan from Austin Energy’s participating lender, Velocity Credit Union. The return of this Best Offer Ever – originally offered in late 2010 – is a unique opportunity where residential customers can apply through Austin Energy for both the rebates and the low-interest loan to make the improvements.

Red Cross urges everyone to get a flu shot NOW! AUSTIN — Widespread flu activity is being reported across much of the country and the American Red Cross urges people who have not yet gotten a flu vaccine to get vaccinated now. The Red Cross also has steps people can take to prevent the spread of the flu virus during what the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says is the worst influenza outbreak in several years in the United States. Widespread flu activity is reported here in Texas and across 40 other states - Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. STEPS TO PREVENT FLU The CDC recommends a yearly flu vaccine for everyone six months of age and older as the first and most important step in protecting someone against flu viruses. In addition to getting vaccinated, the Red Cross has some simple steps people can take to help prevent the spread of the flu virus. Parents can also practice
these things with their kids to help keep them well: · Cover the nose and mouth with a tissue or sleeve when coughing or sneezing, and throw the tissue away after use. If a tissue isn’t available, cough or sneeze into the elbow, not the hands. · Wash hands often, especially after coughing or sneezing. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand-rub. · Avoid touching the eyes, nose or mouth. · Avoid close contact with people who are sick. · Stay home if sick. SIGNS OF THE FLU How does someone know they have the flu? The common signs of influenza are high fever, severe body aches, headache, being extremely tired, sore throat, cough, runny or stuffy nose, and vomiting and/or diarrhea (more common in children). If someone in the household does come down with the flu, the Red Cross wants everyone to know the best way to care for them: · Designate one person as the caregiver and have the other household members avoid close contact with that person so they won’t become sick. · Make sure the person stays at home and rests until 24 hours after the fever is gone. · Designate a sick room for the per-
son if possible. If there is more than one sick person, they can share the sick room if needed. If there is more than one bathroom, designate one for those who are sick to use. Give each sick person their own drinking glass, washcloth and towel. · Keep the following either in the sick room or near the person: tissues, a trash can lined with a plastic trash bag, alcohol-based hand rub, a cooler or pitcher with ice and drinks, a thermometer and a cup with straw or squeeze bottle to help with drinking. A humidifier will provide extra moisture, making it easier for the sick person to breathe. Sick people should wear a facemask, if available, when they leave the sick room or are around others. · Give plenty of liquids (water and other clear liquids) at the first sign of flu and continue throughout the illness. People with the flu need to drink extra fluids to keep from getting dehydrated. · Treat fever and cough with medicines that can be purchased at the store. Remember, when children are ill they should never be given aspirin or products containing aspirin - especially with the flu. · If the person gets very sick, is pregnant or has a medical condition (like asthma) that puts them at higher risk of flu complications, call their doctor. They may need to be examined and might need antiviral medicine to treat the flu.
· Keep everyone’s personal items separate. All household members should avoid sharing pens, papers, clothes, towels, sheets, blankets, food or eating utensils unless cleaned between uses. · Disinfect doorknobs, switches, handles, computers, telephones, bedside tables, bathroom sinks, toilets, counters, toys and other surfaces that are commonly touched around the home or workplace. · Wash everyone’s dishes in the dishwasher or by hand using very hot water and soap. · Wash everyone’s clothes in a standard washing machine. Use detergent and very hot water, tumble dry on a hot dryer setting and wash hands after handling dirty laundry. · Wear disposable gloves when in contact with or cleaning up body fluids. CALL THE DOCTOR If someone thinks they have the flu,
their health-care provider should be consulted. Seek medical care immediately if the person develops any of the following symptoms: · Fast breathing, trouble breathing or bluish skin color. · Pain or pressure in the chest or abdomen (adults). · Confusion or sudden dizziness. · Not drinking enough fluids, not being able to eat, or severe or persistent vomiting. · Flu-like symptoms that improve but then return with fever and worse cough. · Not waking up, being so irritable that the child does not want to be held or not interacting (children). · Fever with a rash (children). · No tears when crying or significantly fewer wet diapers than normal (children). More information about how to help protect loved ones during this flu season is available on redcross.org.

Overall, we’d have to say the Camaro these days isn’t a bad everyday car or even a bad family car. This one will certainly fill the bill as both a fun ride for dad during the week and a family car on weekends, as long as the kids are young and relatively small.

St. Michael’s Catholic Academy Entrepreneurship Center students participated in an end-of-semester Business Plan Competition that served as their final exam. Pictured are (back row, left to right) Sonia Gaillard, SMCA Director of Entrepreneurship, John Tybor, Eric Honeycutt, Trent Woolley, Ross Eide, Christian Trudeau, and Brian Epstein; (center row, left to right) Nicolette Spagnola and Sarah McCormick; (front row, left to right) – the Judges: Dennis Dautel - CEO ignite360 and Partner - I’m Possible Training, Christine E. Marquette - Marquette Nutrition & Fitness, LLC, Leo Ramirez, Jr. - CEO Minidonations and Founder of Keep Austin Generous, and Andrew Parker - Co-founder of SevenBack.
Shark Tank at St. Michael’s It looks a lot like an episode of the hit TV show Shark Tank: teams of nervous but well-prepared budding entrepreneurs pitching their best new product and business ideas to a group of seasoned investors. The difference is that these are juniors and seniors from St. Michael’s Catholic Academy’s Entrepreneurship Center, the investors are local business professionals, and the boardroom pitch is their final exam. The Intro to Entrepreneurship class at St. Michael’s is the foundation of the well-recognized Center that also includes multiple business-related field trips, Summer Internships, a Job Shadowing Program, and the continuing class Entrepreneurship 201. “The critical thing about these classes is that our students learn through real-life experiences,� explains Sonia Gaillard, Director of the SMCA program. “Their over-reaching assignment in a semester-long class is to recognize an opportunity and develop a business plan for a product or idea that responds to that need. “Opportunity recognition is a learned and practiced skill, as is the ability to turn that opportunity into a viable business,� Gaillard continues. “By spending a semester or two recognizing and practicing entrepreneurial skills, St. Michael’s students leave high school with experiences that put them ahead of the curve. They are problem-solvers, prepared for rigorous collegiate
business programs and beyond. Most importantly, they see themselves as solutions.� For instance, time was spent studying the unique economic opportunities brought to bear by Formula One Racing coming to Austin. Students may interview their parents, grandparents, and neighbors – looking for unanswered product or social needs. “We spend weeks running various scenarios, brainstorming. The best of these ideas are funneled into SWOT analysis,� said Gaillard. “Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Students compare and contrast their ideas against the competitive landscape and conduct targeted market research. Just that exercise really gets them out of their comfort zone and helps them learn to deal with rejection in a safe environment.� The SMCA Entrepreneurship Center for Economic and Social Innovation, or Entre Center as it’s called around campus, is modeled on similar programs found in colleges across the nation and is the only one of its kind in an area high school. The Center connects St. Michael’s students with professional mentors who believe the “entrepreneurial spirit� can be taught and are willing to volunteer their time in the classroom developing student leaders. “As our student teams begin to form their business ideas, they also determine the types of consulting support
they will need to succeed—just like every business does,� explains Gaillard. “That tells us who we, at St. Michael’s, need to recruit from our corporate community—every business needs marketing help but we might also need advise on restaurant management or intellectual Continued on page 15

by Patrick Olson As guard for the Crockett girls’ basketball team, Darcy Lof plays an important role for a Lady Cougar team intent on pressing defensively and scoring with multiple fast break opportunities. “Darcy has improved tremendously on the basketball court from the time she started our program as a freshman. Most of that can be attributed to her work ethic and internal drive for success,” coach Jennifer Shuttlesworth said. “She transfers that same drive for success to the classroom.” Continued on page 15

Maroons top Dawgs 57 to 26 by Patrick Olson
A huge third quarter propelled Austin High past Bowie in the teams’ second district game. “At halftime we were up by only four points, but we made some adjustments and it paid off for us,” Austin coach Andy Dudney said. “We got back to our style of defense, ball pressure, and
cleaned up the glass.” Dorian Parks led the Maroons with 17 points, while Cole Carper contributed a dozen points. Austin High put 20 points on the board in the third period, with a single free throw by Bowie’s Callaghan O’Rielly constituting the entire Bowie offensive production in the quarter.
The Maroons closed out the game with another impressive performance at the charity stripe as Matt Jones combined with Parks to sink nine of ten free throws down the stretch. Bowie (13-8, 0-2) hosts Lake Travis on Friday with Austin High (17-5, 2-1) visiting Westlake.
Bowie ready to open regular season by Patrick Olson
Recent scrimmages against Belton, Round Rock and Georgetown have the Bowie girls’ soccer club ready to open the regular season at the Ranger Classic in Smithson Valley. “Our scrimmages are always tough because everyone else has an athletic period and we don’t,” coach Carrie Hoffman-Howell candidly admitted. “In each game from beginning to end, we gradually got better and better. The kids grew up literally. They are starting to come together.
The girls are bonding quickly.” Lauren Taylor returns from an ACL injury to work in the goal with Kendall Janke, who is recovering from a concussion. “I have two strong junior goal keepers,” the coach noted. Lady Dawg fullbacks include Kelli Culp, Amanda Marquette, Katherine Serrano, Caroline Klein and Elise Westmoreland. Caroline Graham works at the center midfield spot while Abby Ables recovers from a knee injury. Jordan Leeper, Alex Jansen, Kathryn Mayo and Mae
Henson also operate at the midfield positions. Sydney Ribelin and Reina Trejo, who both scored two goals and had a pair of assists last year, hold down the striker spots, with Audrey Baker also contributing up front. Hoffman-Howell is pleased with the camaraderie of her crew. “They get along well together,” the coach added. “It makes them play harder for one another. They don’t want to let each other down.”
Austin rebuilds around key players by Patrick Olson
Although the Austin High girls’ soccer club lost a dozen players to graduation, the team returns key contributors to the Lady Maroons success with Audrey Kuhl, Libby Fish, Catherine Schram and goalie Kortney Trevino. “We have a nice center line going right down the middle,” coach Deena Telley said. After a scrimmage with Pflugerville on Monday, Telley’s crew opens the regular season next
weekend on the road at the I-10 Shootout in Katy. Kuhl joins Meredith Curran, Natalia Norris and Sydney Brignole on the front line at the forward spots. Brignole and Kuhl both scored goals recently in a scrimmage versus Stony Point. Madison Tumicki, a regional qualifier in cross-country this past fall, will work at the midfielder position with Schram and Fish. Maroons fullbacks include freshman Hailey Heal, Teresa Gordon, Sara
Lozano-Sanchez, Meredith Jamail and Claire Levatino, who had an assist from the back line in the Stony Point scrimmage. Telley has three freshmen and a pair of sophomores on the 2013 team, and will look to a junior varsity contingent for more defensive additions. “We’re trying to find out where people will fit,” the coach said. “We’re focused on team work since we have a lot of new people.”

City of Austin news Continued from p. 5 And it gets even better. Customers can receive an additional $650 to $850 in rebates if they agree to have their home undergo rigorous energy performance testing before and after the improvements are made to quantify actual energy savings. The added rebates are based on whether the home can achieve energy savings of between 20% and 30% with all the recommended improvements made. Participating in the Home Performance with Energy Star program is easy. Customers can contact any of the more than 50 participating companies listed on Austin Energy’s Web site at www.austinenergy.com and ask for a free energy analysis. The participating company will go over the Home Performance program with the customer and the incentives available from Austin Energy including the process for advanced testing for even higher rebates. The company will conduct
a home energy analysis and make recommendations on improvements and can facilitate the more advanced testing for higher rebates. Austin Energy staff reviews all the energy efficiency recommendations before the work is performed by the participating company selected by the customer – and inspects all the work once completed. Customers who make all the recommended whole house improvements can see their electric bill reduced by as much as 40%, not to mention a more comfortable home and a more healthy environment due to drastic improvements in air quality throughout the home. Austin Energy was awarded a $10 million Better Buildings grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to help customers make extensive improvements to increase energy efficiency and to increase the level of testing to verify customers receive the greatest energy savings possible.

City launches combined neighborhood planning in South Austin on Jan. 12 The City of Austin is launching a planning process for three South Austin neighborhoods and invites the public to a kickoff event Saturday, Jan. 12 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Crockett High School cafeteria, 5601 Manchaca Road. A new “South Austin Combined Neighborhood Plan” will guide the form, location, and character of future development in the Westgate, South Manchaca, and Garrison Park neighborhoods bounded by Ben White Boulevard to the north, William Cannon Drive to the south, West Gate Boulevard/the Sunset Valley city limits to the west, and South 1st Street to the east. The roughly four-square mile planning area includes approximately 22,000 residents. At the kickoff event, City staff will explain the neighborhood planning process and seek input
on existing neighborhood assets and concerns, as well as an overall vision for the neighborhood’s future. Residents can also attend a more in-depth community visioning workshop on Feb. 16 and a design workshop on March 23. “We encourage residents, business owners, landowners, and other interested community members to participate in the planning process, which will take approximately one year and will involve a series of community events and workshops,” said Greg Guernsey, Director of the Planning & Development Review Department. The South Austin Combined Neighborhood Plan will be the first neighborhood plan developed since Council adopted the Imagine Austin Comprehensive Plan in June 2012. “Imagine Austin articulates a citywide vision for Austin over the next 30 years, and the South Austin
Combined Neighborhood Plan will detail that vision based on local conditions,” Guernsey said. The combined neighborhood plan and all future neighborhood plans will be guided by Imagine Austin’s vision of creating a city of “complete communities” where residents have convenient access to their daily needs, including goods, services, parks, and jobs. The City initiated the neighborhood planning program in 1997 to preserve and enhance the quality of life and character of existing neighborhoods -- mostly located in Austin’s urban core. Currently, 49 neighborhood planning areas have completed the planning process and have adopted neighborhood plans. For more information, visit www.austintexas.gov/department/ south-austin-combined-neighborhood-plan.

The Word from Oak Hill Continued from page 4 if you have too, but I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to look like Guggenheim on the deck of the Titanic while Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m drinking a beer. But that was a minor setback. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to try some of the real entrees, such as Bistro Steak, a hanger steak marinated in Shiner Bock & Lone Star, grilled, sliced & topped with warm tomato-cabernet salsa, served with potato-gorgonzola gratin & seasonal sautĂŠed vegetables for 18 dollars. Or Bouillabaisse Seafood Stew made with freshly-caught fish, mussels, shrimp & potatoes in a saffron-fennel fish stock, served with a fresh baguette for 18 dollars. That might be next on my list. But the Pork Tenderloin also caught my eye. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spice-rubbed medallions, pan-seared and served in tomatillo sauce with sweet potato hash and seasonal sautĂŠed vegetables for 16 bucks. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll definitely be back. t t t And even more food. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new trailer at the Oak Meadow food court behind the Good Will and next to Donnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s BBQ, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s from Whole Foods. Oddly, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of only three food trailers deployed by Whole Foods in the nation, and the only one in Austin. Naturally, I asked them why here and why now? The answer? Convenience. Dave Hernandez and Allegra Powers told me that unlike most food parks, there are no time restrictions. That
means the Whole Foods trailer can be there Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and then be deployed during the weekends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We chose this park because we can work other special events as well,â&#x20AC;? Powers said. Works for me. I went there last Tuesday in the rain to try a few of their menu items, and the trailer was open thanks to an awning that protects patrons from the rain. I ordered three things from the Sliders & Salads menuâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;The St. Paul salad and two sliders, The Trench Town and The La Grange. The St. Paul Salad is comprised of a cage-free egg foo young patty with mushrooms, sprouts, sriracha mayo (beats me) and greens. It tasted great, and apparently egg foo young is something like an omelet. The La Grange slider consists of coffee-rubbed bison, lettuce and tomato with a caramelized onion aioli and mayo. The little buffalo burger tastes great, and I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the caramelized onion that gives it the uniqueness. The Trench Town tasted best to me. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a pulled pork sandwich with smoked-jerk pork topped with cabbage and pineapple salsa. Spicy with a nice bite. There are three more entrees to round out the small but effective menu. The Casablanca features Moroccan grilled chicken, cracked black pepper, preserved lemon, good flow honey yogurt and olives. Hernandez says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also the one
menu item that takes the longest (the Trench Town takes the quickest). Two vegan items are also featured, The Argentinean and The Spicy New Yorker. The Argentinean consists of breaded eggplant Milanese and their signature chimichurri sauce. The Spicy New Yorker includes mock chicken with vegenaise (non-animal mayo) and spicy wing sauce topped with celery dressing. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s it. The entrees range from $6 to $8 and most are seven dollars. You can add fries for $2, although they are sweet potato or chick pea fries (again, beats me). They also have several non-alcoholic beverages available, from pineapple kombucha (yet again, beats me) to iced coffee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every item we have can be served as a slider or a salad,â&#x20AC;? Hernandez said. Given Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already tried half the menu, I suspect Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try every item on the list before the monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s out. And the way I see it, the food trailer court is now complete. You can start off with a salad from Whole Foods, followed by some fried shrimp or fish at Fishey Bizness, then get some brisket at Donnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s BBQ and for dessert an ice cream treat from Wright Bros Dairy. That sounds like a good night of open air eating. Something to do in spring, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m guessing. See? Column ideas are everywhere. t t t Want your neighborhood association highlighted? Have a story you need to tell? Would you like to rat out a neighbor? If so, be sure to email me at mail@mikejasper.com and get the word out.
