Heads-up…. This is the weekend for the 58th Annual Greek Food Festival right here on Hillcrest and Alma Roads in Dallas, Texas. The festival began as a ladies bazaar at the Greek Orthodox Church that was on Swiss Avenue. I remember that it was many moons ago when we literally stumbled upon the festival on Swiss Avenue, […]
It had been a while since we had been to Buckner, and it was good to be back. In the small auditorium there was somethings new hanging on the wall. Buckner has t-shirts for sale. I believe some of these must be associated with fund raising events. T-shirts can easily share the message of an […]
People who know and have experienced the Village Baking Company speak in awe of their breads. I had heard of this bakery, but had no idea where it was. When MarshaChristmas asked if it would be okay to stop by the Village Baking Company after lunch, I was beyond excited. This artisan bakery has been on […]
Trinity Groves was on my “Want to Do” list. There have been press releases, reviews, and blog posting about this new area across the Mary Hunt Hill Bridge in West Dallas. You cross the bridge, exit on Riverfront, and you are there. Phil Romano appears to have a successful beginning with the Restaurant Concept Incubator Program. Chefs […]

Meddlesome Moth – I had heard about it. The name intrigued me – Meddlesome Moth. I had seen the restaurant listed on suggested places to eat in Dallas, but I really did not know much about this Dallas’ Trinity Design District restaurant. When MarshaChristmas suggested lunch at the Meddlesome Moth I jumped at the opportunity. […]
Marge is such a special friend. Ask anyone who knows her, and they all will say that she is amazing. We shared a room while we taught at Wallace, and it is always a special treat to get together with her. She is a beautiful, classy lady, and I learned so much from her. It […]
There is a new restaurant in town, and we wanted to try it. Ever-Lovin’ and I made our way over to Campbell/Coit to dine at Manny’s Uptown Tex-Mex, but the line was LONG – 45 minute wait. (People in the Richardson/North Dallas area are so ready for new restaurants.) Maybe another day we decided. On […]
What I am about to share is not life shattering. (Come to think of it – Nothing I share is life shattering news.) But…It is always amazing to me when I learn something, and that is exactly what happened while recently standing in the line to go through security at DFW airport. As I […]
