Without further ado, the crack team at Company Café is announcing their next, great culinary venture. Back Home Barbecue offers all the traditional goodness of Texas barbeque with some special twists. They serve the things we know and love about barbecue: brisket, chicken, ribs, pork and sausage along with amazing sides like braised collards, mac […]

If you’ve lived in Dallas for any significant amount of time, you’ve seen the face of Lower Greenville grow and change over the years. From Steel City Pops to the ever-popular Truck Yard, there’s something for just about everyone. For me, Lower Greenville is a frequent stop not only because it’s fun vibe, but also because of all the local establishments up and down the street. One of my very favorite stops in the area is Company Café. I’ve written about this restaurant before, and in the interest of full disclosure, it really is one of my favorite places in Dallas. Many people are familiar with their commitment to supporting local producers, their wide array of gluten-free menu options, and friendly weight staff. But not many are familiar with the history of the team that has kept Company Café growing and thriving.

I was recently told that I take Christmas obsession to a level that is a cross between adorable and terrifying.

I’m counting this as the second part of my […]

When I go to see a movie, I expect it to be a mini vacation, an escape from whatever the day may have thrown at me, a time to unplug from reality. Every year, I try to catch all of the Oscar-nominated films for Best Picture and have finally learned, despite my disappointment, that these […]

Sometimes, after a long week of being an adult and dealing with our own issues, the best therapy is to just act like a kid. And what’s even better than getting to act like a kid– acting like a kid for a good cause! The Miracle Players Foundation for its second year is hosting their […]

Flowers are nice, a spa visit is sweet, but these Sak Saum for Abi Ferrin pieces are more than just “nice and sweet…” They make Mom feel extra special while also giving to someone else, someone who may not have had a chance at life, the gift of freedom.

I’m a little bit peeved because The Other Dream Team has now forced me to change my top 5, all-time favorite sports movies list (thanks a lot Dallas International Film Festival)…I’ll get over it thought because this film was so unbelievably amazing and an absolute must-see. This is not just another feel good sports movie […]
