If you haven’t already started a tool pool in your neighborhood, there are some online sites to help you rent and share your stuff (think freecycling, but you get your stuff back :) ). I’m definitely putting a few things up on the loanables.com site, which has a good number of members in Austin. More info here:

Rent / borrow stuff from your neighbors and save money! - Loanables

& speaking of Austin & surrounding neighborhoods, Mr. Garden Girl and I just beat the rain when we were biking home from the Pflugerville Farmers Market this Tues., but it was well worth it to score some organic black bubble tea from the owner of the Formosa Tea House & to share a rose cupcake & a rootbeer cupcake from The Happy Vegan Baker under a tree while listening to live music.

Here’s just some of the vendors at the market:
