Groceries, Euro-Style

On March 18, Texans are going to get a look at how the other half lives. (Other half of the world, we mean!) That’s the day that German discount supermarket ALDI opens on Preston at Stonebrook, in the old Albertson’s location.

Texas Treasure

The multiple regions of Texas are as different from one another as different states in the Union, with varying cuisines and cultures. But at Love & War in Texas, you can eat it all, right here in Plano. This locally-owned treasure spotlights Texas cuisine from all regions, as well as Texas wines, beers—and even the original Dr Pepper from Dublin.

Fashion Rules!

I had a big Texas-y post all ready to go for the holiday but it turns out there is BREAKING FASHION NEWS: On Thursday, March 4, Neiman Marcus at the Shops at Willow Bend in Plano is hosting the “Fashion Rules!” party from 6pm – 9pm. This will be a night to celebrate fashion, filled with all sorts of divine entertainments.
