Sunday evenings we take a gander at all of the lovely photos y'all took over the past week as you went about town, doing what ya did. We select our faves, throw 'em all together and write some silly captions to accompany them. We call it "What We Did," but it's really more of what "y'all" did than anything else. It's one of our favorite columns and for good reason. This week we thankfully didn't have to put up with any more damned rainbows, but instead were treated to grub from food trucks, records, and some Easter Egg huntin'.
Check out the following photos from We Denton Do It readers and staff to see what Denton has been up to for the past few days. Thanks for sharing your weekend with us, Denton, and, as always make sure to tag your fun photos with #WDDI this week!
"Oh, you're an artist? What medium do you work in?"
"I dabble in steamrollers."
"Oh, that's cool I guess."
UNT does it right makin' prints with rented steam rollers. We want one! Photo by our historical buddy, Shaun Treat.
We often overlook how nice it can be to drive a bit north to Lake Ray Roberts. @shainasheaffphoto spent her Sunday there shooting beautiful things.
@jesskachav and her friend found the only cinnamon roll in town they couldn't defeat thanks to Loco Cafe. Kinda thinkin' we should do a cinnamon roll shootout between this and Royal's and gain ten pounds.
@hollyintexas and crew browsed around the Community Market on Saturday. Did ya know that the Denton Design Co. sells ties and scarves with prints of the courthouse on 'em?!
@shainasheaffphoto captured the true essence of Denton. We agree with a commenter who called this photo very "Annie Leibovitz-y."
@hollyintexas 'grammed the sidewalk chalk graffiti argument on Industrial St.
The Grand Opening of the Austin St. Truckstop
Denton's first food truck park opened up last Wednesday. We were there (along with a few hundred other people) to check it out and took a few pics.
@thepinkantler hopped the DART to the A-Train to make it back to Denton from Dallas without all the nasty traffic.
@hollyintexas caught our favorite hashtag on the chalkboard... we dig it. Thankful nobody turned the #WDDI into genitals...yet.
Burger Time Machine proved to have an excellent burger. @thepinkantler can attest to the greatness of the tots too.
Nathan Williams of Sunday Print Shop designed one of the best shirt designs we've seen in recent years. Check out Bryce Olcon's visage on this insane T.

Who has the best caption for this shifty-eyed dog owned by one Sara Button? Photo by Shaina Sheaff.

Record Store Day
Saturday was National Record Store Day again. Mad World had a line down to the end of LSA. We scoped out both Mad World and Recycled and got some good scores. We also saw some pretty great cat drawings at Recycled.
Some people really dress up to go to the square. Photo by @phototerminus.
Spring has sprung. Quick! Throw your lady in front of some blossoms and take a picture. Photo by Taylor Bunch.
Damn good fish sandwich at Rooster's. Photo by @hollyintexas.
Quit stealing all the copper mugs, y'all! Photo by @wishmynamewas who most likely did not steal this mug because otherwise the evidence would be too damning.
We've got a review of the recently redone Cups and Crepes comin' this week. Enjoy this photo of their "huddy" in the meantime.
Easter Egg Hunt at Cross Timbers. Photo by Bryce Olcon.
Candidates debate at Dan's. Photo by Paige Gibson.
Aaron Aguilar can't wait for Cultivar to open (along with Hypnotic Donuts). Don't worry, Aaron. We're in the same boat. They were even recently voted best coffee shop in Dallas.
The Adult Easter Egg Hunt at OSDH got violent and fast. Photo by the battle-wounded Sara Norman.
We love seeing this many creative people from different industries in the same room. Ryan Polly, Julian Pastrana and Daniel Routh are hard at work on something. We're assuming it'll be awesome. Photo by Daniel Routh.
Wait. Didn't we already post this picture up above? Yes. We did. You noticed. You're probably the only one who read this far down. Either way, we're impressed. Please find one of us and tell us the codeword, "Cookie Crisp!" to receive your prize. Photo by @hollyintexas again.
Oh yeah. We co-hosted a candidate debate at Dan's last week. Did you go? We hope so. If not, Christopher Walker did the hard work of creating this rundown of candidates' answers.
