We woulda let you know about this a little bit earlier, but we were busy having lunch at the highly-overrated Austin Barbecue out on Burleson Rd.

Nothing says summer like discount vintage shopping and cold beer. Except FREE cold beer. And homemade cupcakes.
Is your mouth watering yet? Good. Cause you're in luck. From 4-7pm the folks at Blue Velvet Vintage Clothing are having a Free Cupcake Happy Hour to go along with 20% off all non-consignment gear in their shop. And DJs Mr. Saturday and Polaris will be providing the soundtrack to all your mastication and consumption.
Make sure you bring your ID, however, cause unlike the good peeps over at T&G Food Mart, they don't just ask if you're 21, you gotta prove it, folks.
Blue Velvet Free Cupcake and Lone Star Happy Hour
2100-B Guadalupe
Today from 4pm-7pm
