The Dream Cafe – love the name. The Mrs. knew about The Dream Cafe in Addison, so one morning The Buds met at The Dream Cafe for breakfast.   I was impressed.  I told Ever-Lovin’ about it, and … he wanted to go.  So go we did.  . Welcome!  The website mentions that there is ...

We went to Talouse Cafe and Bar on our way home from tip-toeing through the bluebonnets in Ennis.  We stopped on Knox Street to shop a bit, and it was supper time. (Okay, dinner time since we went to a French restaurant.)  I remembered that The Mrs. had mentioned Toulouse was a good restaurant, and ...

Cafe 43 (In case you missed it.  President George W. Bush was the 43rd  President of the United States of America.) is the new restaurant at  the George W. Bush Presidential Center. There is an outside entrance to Cafe 43, and it is open to the public for lunch (11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.) Monday ...

All that was lacking was the mariachi band at the Cinco de Mayo Fiesta at the Well. The Well is a refuge for adults with mental illness.  It is our privilege to bring lunch to the Well on the first Monday of each month. Since the first Monday of May fell one day after Cinco ...

It is exciting when new restaurants open in the burbs.  For sometime now, we have been watching work on a new burger joint at II Creeks Plaza in Richardson (2701 Custer Parkway, 75080).  Shady’s Burger Joint opened in April, and we were eager to give it a try.  The restaurant had been opened only a ...

I was scooped.  The Buckner Gang went to 20 Feet Seafood Joint, and loved it. “You must blog about this restaurant!,” said one and all.  I began preparing.   The pictures had been transferred from the camera into a folder on the desktop.   Ideas were in my head. The Dallas Morning News stole my ...

My friend The Mrs. called one day and said, “Have I got the perfect thing for you”.  Well maybe she didn’t actually say those exact words, but it was something like that because she had heard about a DallasBIG contest sponsored by The Dallas Convention and Visitors Bureau.  Loree (The cute and talented wife to ...

A blog in three parts – a tri-blog if you wish. THE HOUSE: Beautiful. Be still my heart.  Just walking up to the home made my heart begin to go pitty-pat.  Azaleas in bloom, mature trees, and topiary shrubs greeted us as we visited 6325 Preston Parkway.  ”This classic Tudor home was  built in 1936 ...

While out and about with fantastic friend Pat, guess what I learned.  Fantastic friend Pat had never – ever – ever enjoyed going to Highland Park Pharmacy.  The Highland Park Pharmacy that was established in 1912, and has served breakfast, lunch and most importantly soda fountain treats to countless generations of Dallasites.  I could not ...

Finally a dry, warm, sunny day.  Ever-Lovin’ and I wanted to see Dallas Blooms while there were still blooms to be seen.  Let it be known.  The gardens are gorgeous, and there is plenty to see. (The Arboretum is always beautiful – in any season.) See what greeted us even before we entered the gardens. ...
