Man About Town

Early in the first week of March, my dear friend, Ed Thompson, called and said, “Is the ‘Man’ open for a wine and cheese event this Thursday night?” Well, does a bear live in the woods? Of course I was open for wine and cheese, especially with my good brother Ed.

The “Man” and special friend, Michael Mahfood, joined forces to throw a little party in a unique off the beaten path kind of place.  We wanted a quiet elegant spot with simple, but fantastic cuisine.  The choice was not that difficult.  Our decision was hands down Currents Restaurant & Bar.

Last fall, FRESH by Brookshire's sponsored an event to help brides-to-be plan their weddings. All sorts of vendors displayed their services: clothiers, caterers, event venues, photographers, wedding planners and musicians – to name a few.

Talk about being in “hog heaven!” The “Man” and his runnin’ buddy, Rick Lambert, felt we had died and landed in paradise on a hot summer night in Lindale, Texas. Yes sir, or better said, yes ma’am! We found ourselves in the company of nine beautiful women.
