2022 Crystal Charity Ball Wrap Up Lunch Was Charming Despite A Sassetta Slo-Mo Meal

Jan 3, 2023 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean Leave a Comment

The 2022 Crystal Charity Ball committee members may have felt like it was on Ground Hog Day for its 2022 Wrap Up Luncheon on Wednesday, November 16. With top hospitable greetings from the curb by valet parkers at Headington Companies’ Joule Hotel’s Sassetta restaurant, it had all the signs of a return to pre-pandemic days of seamless eventing. But it didn’t exactly go that way. … [Read more...] about 2022 Crystal Charity Ball Wrap Up Lunch Was Charming Despite A Sassetta Slo-Mo Meal

Stronger Together Breakfast Served Up A Great Start For The Day Despite An Unexpected Charge

Nov 28, 2022 1:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

The Omni Dallas Hotel was the scene of a near-perfect storm on Friday, October 28, with Family Gateway holding its “Stronger Together Breakfast” in the Trinity Ballroom followed by the Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas’ “2022 Women of Distinction Luncheon” at 11:30 a.m. If all things went according to plan, the changing of the guard would go unhindered. But things nearly got … [Read more...] about Stronger Together Breakfast Served Up A Great Start For The Day Despite An Unexpected Charge

Nov 21, 2022 3:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

The Dallas Arboretum looked as if it was going through a seasonal transition on the evening of Friday, October 21. While displays of gourds looked right at home around the grounds as Halloween approached, an installation of Christmas decorations could be glimpsed hidden behind panels. But on this night, the main attraction was the three-part Ruby Red Gala chaired by … [Read more...] about Ruby Red Gala “Bubbled” With A Sprite Splashing Onto A Woman’s Garden Infinity Pool

As the first brisk morning of fall 2022 filled North Texas, the Dallas Arboretum was already starting to bulge with cars lining up for parking on Tuesday, October 18.

A Slight Brouhaha Over A Snapshot Interrupted A Writer’s Garden Patron Party’s Protocol

Nov 15, 2022 9:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

With British Royals showing the decorum of pomp and circumstance still top of mind following the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, there should have been a stiff upper lip for North Texas events ... especially with one of the Brits’ upper crust in attendance. So the Women’s Council of the Dallas Arboretum’s A Writer’s Garden’s timing was right on target with its Royal Noble and … [Read more...] about A Slight Brouhaha Over A Snapshot Interrupted A Writer’s Garden Patron Party’s Protocol

Crystal Charity Ball Husbands Party Was “Ridicolo Disordine” From “Dall’inizio Alla Fine”

Nov 8, 2022 9:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

The Crystal Charity Ball’s Husbands Party is unlike other events put on by the 70-year-old Dallas County children’s fundraising organization. As one vet described the annual gathering, “It’s casual, laid back and fun.” Last year’s Husbands event at Café Momentum was indeed all that — until it came time to fetch the cars at evening's end. It seems that the garage above the … [Read more...] about Crystal Charity Ball Husbands Party Was “Ridicolo Disordine” From “Dall’inizio Alla Fine”

The Case Of The Baffling Luminary Dinner Announcement Hijacking

Oct 31, 2022 9:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

Talk about scrambling your eggs! That was the recipe for the Turtle Creek Conservancy’s launch announcement for its Luminary Circle Dinner on Thursday, October 6.  Put another way, it was an "accidental" scrambling of two separate events. At 4:30 p.m., a private gathering took place at Arlington Hall to honor Reuben Naranjo, who was retiring after 44 years of tending and … [Read more...] about The Case Of The Baffling Luminary Dinner Announcement Hijacking

2023 Dallas Symphony Orchestra League Debs Were Introduced Despite A Dark Moment

Aug 12, 2022 9:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

While the annual Dallas Symphony Orchestra League's announcement of the debs can usually take a bit of time, this year's event at Stanley Korshak on Thursday, May 26, was not a long-term affair. After the last collection made up of 2021 and 2022 debs amounted to an almost-record-breaking 48, the class of 2023 was half that. And with a handful of the 24 debs (Sarah Crow, … [Read more...] about 2023 Dallas Symphony Orchestra League Debs Were Introduced Despite A Dark Moment

One couldn't tell that 10th Anniversary Woman To Woman Luncheon Co-Chairs Rachel Biblo-Block, Beverly Goldman, Julie Gothard, Marcy Kahn, Julie Liberman, Staci Rubin and Laura Weinstein had faced a double-doozy of challenges just hours before the Jewish Family Services of Greater Dallas (JFS) fundraiser on Wednesday, May 25, at the Renaissance Dallas Addison Hotel.

A Gentle Reminder: It’s Time To Soak Up Area Water Restrictions

Jul 27, 2022 9:30 AM by Jeanne Prejean

In addition to North Texas temperatures testing the resilience of the grid, the lack of rain has resulted in the drought of 2022. While some have sacrificed their lawns to save on their water bills, others have been the victims of brush fires destroying their homes and property like Monday’s Balch Springs scorched earth episode. At the other end of the drought spectrum are … [Read more...] about A Gentle Reminder: It’s Time To Soak Up Area Water Restrictions
