There’s nothing you can do to stop me from mentioning my sister in any thing I do. I’m grieving, and probably always will be, so I’m going to incorporate her into my daily life in any way I can. This is a list of places and things my sister and I en...

Used to be SBT. This was my sister’s favorite restaurant. Sister and I very much enjoyed the papaya salad, sticky rice, and beef jerky.

Holy Khao Lao Thai Cuisine

This was my favorite go-to spot for a quick breakfast. My sister got bored of it after a while, but would still go because she just loved me that much 💖

Maple Street Biscuit Company

The Palio’s in Allen had this vegan cheese my sister and I would rave about. All the other locations did not have the same vegan cheese. It never hit the same at other Palio locations.

Palio's Pizza Cafe

This was our mid-night snack, because it was always open late with some good quality fast food. The fries were icky, but the burgers with the peppers on the side always hit the spot.

In-N-Out Burger

At the time, my sister and I would make sure to stop by Stony’s. My sister avoided dairy, but she didn’t mind grabbing some for me. I don’t even know what they taste like anymore.

Stony’s Pizza

The one time my sister and I went to the Austin location it was for brunch with some crappy company. The food was great and so was the service, but the company we brought just put me entirely off.

Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse - Austin

The breakfast tacos are so delicious, and if my sister were here she would rave about the carnitas and barbacoa tacos. The customer service though, that’s questionable.

Laredo Taco Company

Stores

My sister had an unhealthy love for Nike. Most of her wardrobe was Nike. She would always drag me into the store, so we can spend hours browsing until she decided to buy one measly item.

Nike

Japanese Dollar Store. My sister would take me here because she knew that I liked looking at the cheap ceramic dishes and cute stationary things.

DAISO

The only reason my sister and I would go to the mall nowadays was for Legos. We would spend a while debating on which set to get before we decided on one.

The LEGO® Store Stonebriar Centre

The main reason my sister and I would go to Hmart was for rice paper and sliced pork belly. We usually stayed for Tea Valley (Boba shop) drinks and food court though. It’s a good spot to gossip for hours.

H Mart Plano

Hotels

Every time we would go to Austin, my sister and I would stay here. We learned our lesson when we booked a crappy hotel near the highway the first time we visited. We never had an issue here, and people watching from the top floors was always fun.
