Chef Charles Miller of Ruths Chris Steak House Grill Masters series at William Sonoma

  There was a house full of foodies surrounding the central demonstration station at Plano's William-Sonoma. I walked over to one of the attentive observers Tom Alleman who's wife Susan happens to be the Assistant Senior Manager of the culinary haven located on the SE corner of Preston Road and Park.
 "Are there always this many people here on a Sunday afternoon?, I asked Tom
  "There are when Chef Charles is giving a clinic." replies Tom.
  Culinary Activities are a regular occurrence and the Plano store brings in popular Chef's from all over the DFW area to share their expertise with a faithful following. The June calender is chocked full of near daily activities. 
  This time, the clinic was a grilling extravaganza of steaks and seafood. A captivated crowd asked questions and sampled every thing from rib eyes and sirloins to shrimp, scallops, and tuna.
  Of course Chef Charles was using helpful cooking accessories, seasonings, and equipment for sale at the store. The cash register was ringing throughout the sampling and the guest were anxiously waiting their turn to personally address the chef of Ruths Chris Steak House on the North Dallas Tollway.

  Ruths Chris is among the final 8 contenders for Dallas favorite steak house. You can vote for you favorite on the Dallas Morning News website.
  Assisting Chef Miller was author and Chef Instructor/Private event chef Jenny Scott who can be seen at www.kitchenessentialswith jenny.com.
  Next week, the Grill Masters series will feature 'Grilled Side Dishes'.

Attorney/ Assoc. Judge Terri Green

Who Knows Terri Green?

  Apparently, quite a few know her well! She has been involved in her schools, communities, and interest groups her entire life. But how involved she has been is the true measure of the value of that list.

  With all the candidates presenting their list of activities and experiences, measuring the depth of commitment and participation is the only fair ruler. How many clubs you can join and when you join them means nothing. It is what you do after you make a commitment that means everything!

As the good book reads “What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds?” James 2:14

 

  Terri Green has far out stripped the other candidates for this judicial seat in legal exposure and experience. She is the only candidate licensed to practice before All Courts in the State of Texas, the 5^th Circuit Court of Appeals, and the United States Supreme Court!

  The legal field has been ingrained in Terri since she was a young girl.  The daughter of a legal secretary of twenty two years, Terri earned her way through high school, college, and law school while working for attorneys who also eventually became State District Judges. One of her former office mates is a current Texas Supreme Court Justice.  She has been guided through her legal career by highly reputable and principled mentors.
