I am addicted to kimchi. The spicy, smelly, gassy-all-to-hell fermented cabbage really does it for me – I’m sure much to Shaun’s dismay. You can imagine what a happy girl I was to find out that the guys over at Chi’Lantro combined two of my favorite loves in the world – Tacos and Korean BBQ.… Continue reading Food Truck Friday: Chi’Lantro
I’m convinced I live in the greatest place in the USA. I’m not talking about my highly annoying “Yeah, I’m from Texas and it rocks face!” attitude (GO TEXAS!), I’m talking about the fact that Austin, Texas is at a culinary crossroads. Mexican food, Hatch Chiles from New Mexico, Deep Southern roots, and Cajun from… Continue reading Friday Food Trucks: Nettie’s Place

Welcome ladies and gents to a new weekly series called Austin Food Truck Friday! There seems to be a food theme ’round these parts. I figure, if I’m going out to eat it anyway, I should probably share where to eat in Austin. My hometown is rife with good eatin’. The Austin Chronicle recently put… Continue reading What to Eat in Austin: Food Truck Friday
Balls. There. I said it. I know you were thinking it so now we can move on to bigger and better things. Like Love Balls. SHOVE THEM IN MY MOUTH. No really, these things are addictive and delicious as all hell. Stop your giggling. I’m serious. After our romp in Japan in 2008 I became… Continue reading Hometown Tourism: Austin Food Trucks – Love for the Love Balls
HAPPY FOURTH FREAKING BLOGIVERSARY TO US! No, we haven’t disappeared. I promise. We have a gazillion things on our plate right now and we just don’t have any extra time to set aside for our love, Over Yonderlust.

Every time I feel like I’m stagnating in my life, I have to remember that this year has been absolutely fabulous – trying as all hell, but fabulous nonetheless. For those of you who have been on the crazy train with us during this past year I would like to give you a wholehearted THANK… Continue reading 2013 Wrap Up: We Were Busy as Hell
I can’t believe that it has already been three months since we got back from Mexico. While I am loving having a home base here in Austin, Texas, my itchy feet are still very alive. In short, I’m getting a bad case of “GET ME OUTTA HERE!” – even if it is just for a… Continue reading Up and Coming Travel: Get Me Outta Here!
Nothing really says “Austin” quite like the “Keep Austin Weird” bastion of South Congress. A street known for its quirky stores and businesses, this is a great place to spend an afternoon if you’re into people watching, great food, and vintage/antique shopping. This should be on your list of what to do in Austin. It… Continue reading Hometown Tourism: South Congress in Austin, Texas
It is weird to think that we left on our life changing trip 627 days ago. We are quickly approaching 2 years of a cubicle free life and I couldn’t be happier. Our year in review is INTENSE. 2012 has been crazy for us as we globetrotted at a breakneck speed. If you would have… Continue reading 2012: Our Year in Review
“What food truck should I go to?!” Somehow, over the last few months, we’ve turned into Austin ambassadors online. After 16 years of living here, I’m just happy that I can pass on the information.

“Are you guys famous? Should I know who you are?” I looked quizzically at the guy in the Gourdoughs window. “Your shirt!” I look down. Oh crap it is laundry day. Apparently I was wearing my Over Yonderlust shirt out and mini cartoon Shaun and Erica was staring back at him. I blushed. “Yeah, I… Continue reading Hometown Tourism: Gourdoughs Donuts NOM NOM NOM
Also known as one of my favorite ways to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon, chicken shit bingo is probably one of the most amazing experiences you can have in Austin, Texas. This past time can be found at the iconic Ginny’s Little Longhorn Saloon a bit north of downtown and has oodles of personality. Picture… Continue reading Hometown Tourism: Chicken Sh*t Bingo at Ginny’s Little Longhorn Saloon
If you are interested in reading things about a tattooed, no-holds barred, honest, potty mouthed, cheeky traveling chick with her oh-so-hot skateboarding mohawk-ed husband, you may have come to the right place. Somehow staying together through thick and thin for half their lives, it made sense that they would make an amazing traveling pair. In… Continue reading About
Yeah, yeah, yeah – I realize that it has been some time since we have posted a restaurant review here at OverYonderlust, but with saving for a house (which I will post about in 2 weeks), and us being on keto (I lost 10lbs quickly), we’ve been a bit homebound while we figure out the… Continue reading New Restaurant: Pokeatery
