Comments: Happy Jack--now that is a plan--I could stay for a month and a half--then I would get to know the place again. Looks like Oak Cliff is on an upswing. James, one of my favorite things to do when my parents lived in Dallas was to come down during the state fair. Once my three sisters and four of the five grandchildren went together--we had a great time. And no mall shopping involved.
Comments: Well Sally, it seems real simple. Come in a few days early for our party and celebrate your Mom's birthday a little late. Then celebrate with us and stay a day or two and celebrate your Dad's birthday a little early. One trip for all three things!! TA-DA!! Mr. Tillery, how come with you having an inside track all these years, we never went to the Duck Inn??
Comments: Sally - I would like to spend a couple of days sight seeing in Dallas, myself. I always enjoyed going to Fair Park for the aquarium, natural history, etc and year round museums out there.
Comments: L.B. Ford (Holmes quebee), playing golf Monday with Cable Guy Fugate and Boxtox Kid Browning. Looking for warm bodies. Donnie has a good short game. Botox throws clubs and wonders why Gloria Lochridge dumped him. Anyone wanna play, call me 214 505-1609.
Comments: The Duck Inn was a place that 2 of my aunts worked for many years. One was the Hostess and the other was a waitress from the early seventies to the mid nineties. An interesting place to eat and really good food. I haven't thought about it for years. These two aunts lived in Lake Dallas for years. You probably were seated and/or served by them if you were a frequenter of that place during that time.
Comments: Speaking of yesteryears LaWanna and I used to love driving up to Lake Lewisville to eat at "The Duck Inn" well I was in that area today and its closed, same old building just vancant. Seems like I remember the bridge over Lake Lewisville being a lot longer too.
Comments: Annette; a bit doubtful; Dennis & I are the only two left in our family. Now, brother Jack got thrown off of planes on a somewhat regular basis...got a bit frisky after a couple of vodkas....not that he would stop after a couple. Linda, it was All-Clad copper core. It's the "copper-core" that kicks up the price some, but worth it.
Comments: Sandy, Thank you for the personal invitation for the June mini. Unfortunately , it is right in between my mother's birthday in May and my dad's in June so three trips in a month and a half are excessive for me, still a working woman. These sites about Oak cliff are so nice-- I need to think about things that my husband and daughter would want to do for a couple of days there--not counting mall shopping!
Comments: Jack -- You been peeking in my kitchen windows! It is kinda like a horse race, when the bell goes off I'm never quiet sure if it's the microwave telling me its finished, the oven telling me its ready or the fridge telling me the door is open!
Comments: Don said she is a wonder with that microwave. Said when SNL cooks, it is like the starting bell at a horse race or the closing bell on the stock market. By the way, SNL, you don't have to strike a match to light the burners OR the stove any more.
Comments: Linda, I had to go with gas as that's what was there & no reasonably feasible way to run elec to the island. I bought a Wolfe cooktop with 4 burners. 1st time to ever use gas, but I do like it. I have Kitchen Aid elec double oven & microwave. I really like my ovens, they cook so evenly & a ton better than my old one! Good luck Linda, it's hard picking out appliances because so much is riding on it & you know you'll have them forever!
Comments: Richard -- I must've missed the name of the cookware you are talking about. Will you give the name again, please? I haven't eaten at Chips lately, but think it's a great burger, onion ring, milk shake kinda place. They also have beer there, but I like the milk shakes. Enough for 2 people to share. SNL -- What's the stove you bought? We're probably going to need a new one sometime. We're happy with the dishwasher, copied you but not a stainless steel one.
Comments: Richard, I keep seeing this great looking smart guy on TV---the go-to guy for airline safety---and funny thing---he's named Nance! Could he be your brother too???
Comments: So, there's my brother....he contacts everybody but me. Glad to see you're ok Nance. SNL, the cookware is a tad pricey, but the last you'll ever buy and an instant benefit. It's almost never on sale either.
Comments: Geez, two Nances in a row! Dennis - what time do your soirees start? About dinner time? Richard - I love my Wolfe cooktop!! I'm still using my old cookware, but I wrote down the names of those two cookwares you recommend & I've been looking. You do have good taste, albeit expensive! |
