Correspondence: I am my hair.

Dear Dry Bar,

Please move to Boston so we can be bffs.  I'll introduce you to all of my other friends and you'll never want for company.

Do you remember me from Dallas?   Here is what I looked like before we met:

Look at those sad, life-less locks.

And here is the magic moment when we bonded over a fizzy glass of champagne, rom coms on the big screen, and a perfectly cosmopolitan blowout by the lovely Amanda.

And check me out after...that shine!  The bounce!

It is clear we are meant to be together.  I don't want to live without you anymore.  Pretty please.

Hugs and kisses,
Dfest

Deep in the heart of Texas

So I'm back from the Big D and here is my report!

1. Take advantage of Dallas Restaurant Week 
   Chicken Fried Steak at Tillmans?  Crab cakes at the Dallas Chop House?  Yes, please.  Food comas could not be avoided.
     
2. Make appointments at the Dry Bar 
   A truly ahmazing experience.  More on this later.
   
   
3. Visit the 6th Floor Museum 
   An hour at the Texas School Book Depository (Chronicles the legacy and assassination of JFK) was the only touristy activity of the trip--and very worth it. I recommend the 30 minute audio tour that allows you to quietly remember the presidency of John F.Kennedy.  Also, the lady running the front desk called me "sugar" 11 times in 2 minutes.  Loved it.
   
   
4. Enjoy the Heat wave 
   107 degrees at 3PM on a rooftop pool.  Might sound hellish.  But actually not a big deal if you have spf 30, an engrossing book (The Hunger Games), and a steady flow of ice water and salted nuts from the helpful and kind staff of the Fairmont Hotel.
     
5. Figure out who shot JR 
   It was Kristin.  Total brat.  And JR decided to not press charges since he was her baby daddy. Pfft. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXDBLuitItU)
    
6. Lightly stalk the castmates of Most Eligible Dallas. 
   I did pass by Teddy's Room.  But I didn't see the cast of the new Bravo shows.  Not a one.  I'm not a very good stalker.  

We also visited the historic West End, had drinks at Reunion Tower, and sampled the most ahmazing fried pickles at Gator's.   


Have you been to Dallas?  Seen Most Eligible Dallas?  Thoughts?

Dallas is hot.

I'm ready for autumn.

Where the wildcats are: Dallas

Guys--I'm off to the Big D for a few days.

My plan:

1. Take advantage of Dallas Restaurant Week
2. Make appointments at the Dry Bar
3. Visit the 6th Floor Museum
4. Enjoy the Heat wave
5. Figure out who shot JR
6. Lightly stalk the castmates of Most Eligible Dallas.

I'll report back!
