DFW Dopers - any interest in "Taste of Dallas" this weekend?

They’re having “Taste of Dallas” this weekend in the West End. Why they always have to have an outdoor festival in the hottest part of the year escapes me, but whatever.

Anybody want to go? The Chef Family will most likely be going - I don’t know when until I can consult with Mrs. Chef about her schedule, but I’ll find out as soon as possible if any of you guys want to make it a group thing.

Is this thing on?

hiya Cheffie,

I am sorry, but we are busy this weekend.

Next time, perhaps.

Hush child. Not all of us can surf at work all day! BTW, I’m too chicken to actually sign on here or LiveJournal (although the siren call leads me to check both sites out occasionally), so I may see these things, but I won’t respond to them till the evening.
I would enjoy going to the event, but only if you promise to help me be good, and spank me whenever it looks like I’m going to eat something high in fat! :wink:

Ooh hoo hoo, can they be slow lingering spanks?

We’re looking to go shortly before lunchtime on Saturday - I don’t know exactly when they open, but it should be around then.

Mrs. Chef wants to go early so she has time to rest and recover afterwards before she has to go to work at 5 p.m.

At one point Melissa and I had this on our list of things we could do this weekend. It got squeezed out by various other things though :confused:

Have fun, maybe next time.

Steven

I can’t do outdoors things with the Red Ozone warnings in effect, sorry, Cheffie!

Btw, <b>Mtgman</b> I need to get your ice cream maker back to you. Or throw another party… :wink:

Sorry, Cheffie, I have to work all weekend. Eat something evil for me, willya?

I think that I am going to go and see what is happening at the site of that house fire.

Sigh. I already have plans for the morning (which is when I’d have to start out) and being outside for more than ten minutes is likely to give me a heat stroke. Add that I probably won’t be able to eat 3/4ths of the stuff there, and this isn’t sounding like any fun for me at all. (slow lingering spanks notwithstanding).

Sorry, Cheffie, I’m going to have to bow out here.

My grass is growing like crazy, I’ve got to keep an eye on this stuff. Sorry.

Jeez, Jim, I thought Adam’s “I’m going to look at a house that already stopped burning” excuse was flimsy.

They WILL have beer there, you know. On a Texas July day, there likely will be scantily clad women, too.

Forget it, everybody - it’s no big deal. We cheffolks will just consider it a family outing.
