More than three people told us to be sure to eat at the Carnegie Deli in New York City. It was on our list. Be still my heart. We were walking back to the apartment after “an evening at the theater” when there it was. The world famous Carnegie Deli. Were we hungry? Not really, […]
Sarah invited us to have lunch around the table at her home. Well technically, Jill invited us to have lunch around the table at Sarah’s home. (Jill is our fantastic friend from Mercy Street, and she is Sarah’s sister.) Both of these girls (ladies) love the Lord, and try to find ways to use their […]
Cafe Max is a restaurant that is literally down the road from our home. Recently we (Ever-Lovin’, Jenny- Number Two Son’s wonderful wife – and I) stopped there for lunch. Sweet Mother of Pearl. As we drove up, I realized – I had not blogged about Cafe Max. This popular Richardson lunchtime restaurant is […]
Harvest Tea at the DeGolyer Restaurant at the Dallas Arboretum is a treat. On the recent visit to the Arboretum, Super Sister, Friend Kim, and I treated ourselves to tea. Our table was set near the fireplace. I liked it. I loved it. It was warm and cozy. Beautiful Noritake chine – each piece was […]
Tea at the Crescent Court – What an experience! I liked it. I loved it. And, I took pictures to share. As a hostess gift, Stephanie and Evelyn invited the hostesses to tea at the Crescent Court. (Stephanie’s aunts and her Matron of Honor were also there.) How impressive is that? Nancy, Sheila, Janet, Wynette, […]

The review had been published in the Dallas Morning News about a restaurant called Kitt’s Kornbread Sandwich and Pie Bar. Yes, they serve cornbread sandwiches. Since Carolyn, Minetta, and yours truly were in desperate NEED of some fun girlfriend time, […]
Marsha Christmas my number one cheerleader sent me this recipe, and I could not wait to try it. Red Beans and Rice are at the top of my comfort food list. Maybe some of you remember Andrew’s restaurant. Here is what Marsha wrote: Andrew’s was owned by 2 brothers (twins?) in the 70’s, I think, […]
As we crossed over the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge that connects downtown Dallas, Texas with Singleton Boulevard in West Dallas, we noticed a retro style diner named Hots – as in hotdogs. (Note to self – that might be a good place to visit.) The building was cute and the parking lot was full. Then… […]
Bambu – The Thai-Asian restaurant in Richardson, Texas has gotten some good press. Dallas Morning News selected it to be in its Top 100 D-FW Restaurants. I decided we needed to see and taste for ourselves. Inside there are copies of their rave reviews from the Dallas Morning News, and the Observer. It is a […]
On June 17, Marsha Christmas – my cheerleader – forwarded me this: “With grace of Southern hospitality Ellen’s Southern Kitchen shines | Dallas-Fort Worth Restaurant Reviews and News – Dining News for Dallas, Texas – GuideLive – The Dallas Morning News.” “Lanabird, Have y’all been here? Sounds very yummy.” NO, I had not been to […]
