On-The-Go — Blog — With Angela O'

I do love Boomerang's. It is especially good on a cold or rainy day. The food is so comforting and delicious and there is just something about that little basement building that is slightly underground. It kind of reminds me of Ghostwriter, the old PBS show from the nineties. Boomerang's is very well known for their Steak & Potato pie a.k.a. Stout Pie that is made with Guinness beer. It is great. That darn crust is so flaky that you don't regret eating it one-handed, even when driving down the street. Every time I stop in there I find a UPS truck stopped and loading up on pie fuel.

Lucky Me! One day while shopping at my favorite Whole Foods and I happened to run into Jack and Lance. The 'Pie Guys'. Jack & Lance, the Boomerang's Founders. Thank you for making Austin a better and more rounded place. Literally.

The best mashed potatoes. You should try a Pie Floater.

In a hurry and hate sitting in the motor bank drive-thru?? Have these handy-dandy deposit slips made up ahead of time and they will save on your patience. Store them in your vehicle console or glove box and they will be ready to grab before you pull up in the drive-thru.

Need another reason?? The reality is that you never have enough of your bank pre-printed deposit slips in the back of your checkbook. Usually there are three to five in the back of the check book. Thirdly, you rarely carry your checkbook in the car or on your body. So go for it and take or ask for a handful of deposit slips from the bank. Grab your address labels and slap them on. And please spare me the ridiculous worry about your physical home address being left in your car for thieves. Your address is plastered on your insurance card which you are required to leave with your vehicle and in many states you are required to leave the registration in your vehicle.
