Good To The Last Bite

May 29, 2009

Some of you may know that I stopped watching the television news quite awhile ago. I determined that all I ever saw was bad news, and it made me sad to see it. My friend Marcia taught me a couple of years ago that if you want your world to be filled with good, [...]

Peggy Sue BBQ in Dallas

April 25, 2009

Peggy Sue has a nice rack. Of RIBS — what were you thinking? I didn’t even see “Peggy Sue.”

We decided to chow down on some barbecue last weekend, and Peggy Sue BBQ was highly recommended, after all The Dallas Observer listed them as The Best Barbecue in 2008. It sounded promising, so [...]

Bread Pudding That Is Worth The Wait

July 1, 2008

In my Mamaw’s kitchen, nothing went to waste. Bread usually didn’t last long enough to get crusty and hard (my grandmother’s homemade bread was delicious). If it did stay around for a few days, it became bread pudding. I loved that bread pudding! It was scrumptious!
A few months back we visited [...]

An Evening With The Bored, er I mean Bard

June 16, 2007

Last night was the evening for us Tuckers to have ourselves a little bit of culture. Imagine holding up the pinkie on your hand as you drink a bottle of Bud Lite. That’s about as cultured as it usually gets around here.
But, last evening was the opening night of the production of [...]

March 2, 2007

I was looking at my pitchers (that is not a misspelling, it is the correct Texas way to write the word “pictures”). I realized I had not updated about our visit to the grand opening party at The Vintage Factory last Saturday night. The teenagers did grace us with their presence. That was a comfort, [...]

“Party Down” at The Vintage Factory

February 22, 2007

I’m not sure I’ve ever been a “party animal,” but I’m going to give it a try this weekend. I’m hoping that our teenager and a friend will join my husband and me so that we won’t feel too out of place.
For those in the Dallas, TX area who like vintage clothing, this Saturday, February [...]

Dolly Python

February 20, 2007

On our Saturday excursion to The House of Dang to search for vintage goodies, Andrew (the proprietor) suggested that we should visit Dolly Python. It’s a combination vintage clothing/antique store/junk store located in the same area of Dallas, at 1916 Haskell Avenue. We slithered on over and go look what we found (actually, this is [...]

House of Dang–A Darn Cool Shopping Experience

February 18, 2007

All I can say is, “Wow!”
You have to check out The House of Dang, if you are anywhere near. We went to visit it yesterday after reading about it in the Dallas Morning News several weeks back. It sounded intriguing. The paper had named it THE best new independent store of 2006. The [...]
