Morning y’all

Was looking for a spot where i could possibly buy Australian snacks and goods, namely a variety of Tim-Tams, Mother Energy, and any other biscuits/snacks/candy y’all wanna recommend.

Any part of the city is fine whether it be all the way in the woodlands or katy or smack dab in the middle of downtown.

Hey there,

I took ~3 yrs of spanish in High school, and I want to improve my spanish skills, specifically in a professional / science setting.

My current level is “take me to Mexico and I’ll be fine” which means I can’t conjugate too well but I can survive.

I found this business, but the reviews seem a little too positive.

Thanks in advance.

I’ve lived in Montrose for going on 5 years now, and it’s routinely touted as Houston’s premiere walk-able neighborhood. That being said, I’ve noticed a number of business closings and deterioration of commercial properties in the area for a while now, outside of the obvious ones of Disco Kroger and the neighboring Half-Price books strip mall. Residential property values in the area haven’t accrued that much either.

This has been abandoned as long as I’ve lived here:

Hay Merchant is just a trash dump now:

Whatever this was is a trash dump as well now:

Fenced off, but still abandoned for some time:

I hopped over to EaDo recently, and that place is an adult Disney World, with breweries, comedy clubs and the Truck Yard, with new places that opened up since the last time I was there. Not saying that this is the best kind of development, but I’m wondering why the neighborhoods are going in such different directions. Is it just the presence of the stadiums that’s doing it?

Ya’ll, (I’m Texan, sorry) are the worst group of people to ever exist. Everyone hates you. No, Im not going to slow down because you were two lanes left 50 ft before your exit. No, I’m not going to let you in line because you wanted to skip 200 cars in the exit. Take your junker repo to a driver’s education course and stop being a drag on our city.

Also, if you get the stained blankets out of the rear windshield, you might notice the buildup your causing by going 10 mph in the left lane.

Hi all, I’m in Connecticut but my best friend, who lives in Houston, has her baby shower soon. Everyone is giving her gifts for her baby but I want to do something for her. I’m thinking of a spa package (facial, foot massage, prenatal massage), any recommendations?

Her zip code is 77025, but I think she’s ok to drive 30 min..

Thanks!
