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 […]

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. […]
This blog is a little different. I have good news and bad news to share. Do you want the good news or the bad news first? I will share the bad news first. – I always like to get bad news out of the way. The “Don’t You Just Love a Bargain,” store is closing. […]
Thank you Amy! While at Buckner the Mrs. called her foodie daughter Amy for dining suggestions. (We are always looking forward to our next meal.) Where could we eat in East Dallas after our shift of sorting shoes? Amy came up with a winner. I had heard about Good 2 Go Taco (The name […]
