Sunday at the Oasis

Another salsa fix, another indulgence for the mister and I in all things free (unless we open the menu of coz). Swang by brother-in-law's for a minute for his birthday. I baked him a cake just like the one I made couple of weeks ago that he couldn't get enough of. Caramel cake. Homemade. My mister struck the jackpot... A wife that can cook! :-) 

So we are here. And sure as heck, we were first at the door!! Our reserved table was waiting for us. Well, self-reserved. We claim it.

Swag is here!! His lady is a vision with white shorts and a blue top with a belt accentuating her beautiful figure. Bolton is yet to hit the floor, but I saw him a while ago, smiles and all. He has the bluest eyes! 
The Centennials were a smidge late today, but as usual, the smiles and radiance they project is infectious.
Swag is pulling some crazy moves today! Spins and turns and I'm dizzy just watching him and his lady. Bootilicious is here too. The linen pants don't do her body justice. Jeans flaunt her curves better. 
So, news about Violinist. He is in the band. Eye candy. Caught him making out with his boyfriend..... Sorry ladies. There's a lucky man out here and Violinist is watching him like a hawk..... 
Islander is a regular here, and seems like all regulars know each other. Anywho, brother always passing his business cards around..... That to me takes away from the value of the social gathering. But such is the hustle, gotta network and make yourself known. 

The music is awesome as usual, but Romeo just announced that his saxophone player is leaving. As long as Romeo and Violinist are still here, my band is complete lol! But the vibe is a little subdued, or is it just me? The mister is excited about salsa as usual, and my girl Nana was able to join us! The floor is mostly packed the entire time save for times when violinist was doing a solo string session..... 

Food at the starlight is horrible! I can attest to that now. Stick to the queso Mrs. Roulette. Believe the reviews you here at face value sometimes. Waste of 14.99 of our hard earned money. Fish tacos. Coulda filled three bags at Aldi with that money. Nkt!  But it's all good. One thing I will say though! Drinks are great! Tonight I'm all aqua. Not feeling fermented sugar or distilled portions that come in fancy glass bottles branded Jose Quervo (never met him) or grand manier and a hefty price tag to boot. Could go for coffee or tea actually, but I doubt there's a Keurig behind the bar.....

We made a new friend today. Theo is her name. I know! Theo is a girl, not my ex boyfriend.hahahaha! Lawd no! She is from Tanzania! She was so excited to speak Swahili poor thing must be the only African she knows in North Austin, or all of Austin for that matter. Nana and I are about to change that soon as we plan a coffee or lunch meet to get to know each other better. New friends, new perspectives. Life is good. 

Our waiter John was as bad as the food. About to go to yelp and do my thing but maybe I should give him another chance. It's our fav spot after all. As I look around for him coz we are ready for our check, who do I spot? Nubian Queen!! Her admirer from last week is trying to get a dance, literally tagging her his way but the one she is with now is not letting go. Oh my! The young Turks got a thing for missy!! She is loving the attention. Who wouldn't? 

So that wraps up our Sunday. Lovely evening with my best friend and the company of my gal Nana. She had a great time she said, and I am glad. 


Monday is a few hours away. May your week be ever fruitful, may the works of your hands be blessed. May God's grace shine upon you and may He bless you, and all that is yours. 

Love,
Mrs. Roulette
