Interview with San Marcos City Councilman Maxfield Baker ktsw899
By Hannah Walls Web Content Contributor One thing to know about me is that I cannot go anywhere without a beverage in hand, especially during those super important "errands" I always have to run during the summer, e.g. hitting the Target clearance section, seeing if 5 Below has restocked Squishmallows yet and smelling every single candle Marshalls has to offer. Having a cold drink of some kind to cool down […]
By Celeste Parler Web Content Contributor No store does more than my H-E-B. The San Antonio-based grocery chain offers affordable quality products to Texans throughout the state, including San Marcos. Moving to San Marcos reminded me that not everyone was lucky enough to grow up with an H-E-B and that my friends and roommates had no idea of the hidden gems the store has to offer. I'm grateful to have […]
By Lea Mercado Web Content Assistant Manager As someone who loves to bake, Thanksgiving is my favorite time of the year. I always grew up being in charge of the pies and puddings, but over the past few Thanksgivings, I decided to expand my contributions to appetizers in addition to desserts.

My first time visiting Las Vegas […]
By Calvin L MillerWeb Content Contributor For an absurd amount of time, I thought the avocado was a vegetable; it turns out, it's a fruit. After that embarrassing fact was made known to me, I began learning other aspects of what is called the "green gold" down in Mexico, specifically the state of Michoacan. Archeologists have found the seeds of the avocado dating back to Peru around 750 B.C. From […]
By Darcie Papillion Web Content Contributor With its Mexican-styled cocktails, pink and teal seating, and array of Hispanic artists playing through the speakers, Gabriela's is the place to go. This Latina-owned restaurant opened in April 2021 in South Austin replacing an old sports bar. There was no doubt this restaurant would be a hit since the owner, Gabriela Bucio, owns other popular places, such as Taquero Mucho, Revival Coffee, and Gabriela's Downtown. The […]
Diamond Marie PedrozaWeb Content Contributor Did you know that a staggering amount of food produced globally is thrown away instead of given away? In fact, the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that the U.S. wastes around 40 percent of its food supply yearly. In the 2014 documentary, “Just Eat It: A Food Waste Story,” a couple spends six months determined to not waste any food. They only eat discarded food […]
