Bigger spaces, younger faces and more room to grow. That’s what Promise of Peace (POP) sees in its future as they move from their Imagine garden space on San Saba Drive. The group’s lease with White Rock United Methodist Church, home to POP’s San Saba garden, has expired. Now they’re dividing that garden between their other two locations. It is an opportunity to expand those other gardens, one next to Agape Memorial United Methodist Church at Capitol and Garrett Avenues, and another at Bayles Elementary School on Telegraph Avenue. As the San Saba location goes away, the expansions at other sites are impressive, even to POP executive director and president Elizabeth Dry. “The gardens are

properly, is an act that benefits the human soul as much as it does the Earth. This move will help POP expand that mission
and offer even more service to those neighbors.

Local Theater
Dallasite converts from executive to actor at Runway By Shari Goldstein Stern Imagine a high-rise Fifth Avenue penthouse in Manhattan, with all in one room: a powerful attorney, who takes calls from the President (the big one), his snobbish wife, her best friend, a gay designer who is recently widowed, a sassy maid, an overbearing mother and an uptight bride-to-be. Now think: It’s the day before the wedding, and the dress designer, florist, caterer — all the priests and others who are essential to a wedding — rally to a walk out. That’s “Regrets Only” at Runway Theatre, and it is pure community theater at its best. Playwright Paul Rudnick explores the dynamics when you isolate this ensemble of characters under the stresses of the moment and their life-changing history. Caroline Carter nails the ambitious corporate attorney, Spencer McCullough, who becomes an unrecognizable shrew during her wedding planning. The feisty maid, Myra, played by Erin Maher, reinvents herself, including dialects — not overnight, but every few minutes. She describes herself as, “The only Jewish, white maid in New York.” Later she appears in accessories as Spencer’s maid of honor, a nun wearing men’s underwear for the habit on her head, with at least half a dozen different characters oozing out. While she’s annoying, which she’s going for, the character is over-the-top clever.

Summer Days
Camp Kindness empowers kids, builds community By Sujata Dand For five-year-old Redman Hume, it isn’t too hard to be nice to people — except, maybe when it comes to his big sister Caroline. “Sisters can be a pain,” he said. But, he’s learning that being kind can have some benefits. In his first day at Camp Kindness, he and other campers read the book “Fill A Bucket” by Carol McCloud and did fun activities to further understand the lesson. “When you fill someone’s bucket,” Redman explained, “that means you make someone happy and [yourself ] happy.” Camp Kindness is organized by local Dallas nonprofits Mommies In Need and Pamper Lake Highlands. The camp’s mission is to teach children the many ways they can give back to their community and show everyday kindness to the people and the world around them. Each of the six camp days is its own mini-camp with a daily theme like environment and nutrition,
homelessness, inclusion of people with disabilities and helping our local and global communities. “I feel like there are a lot of 'haves' and 'have-nots' in our community and we need to build a bridge,” said Caren Bright, director of Pamper Lake Highlands. “We can do that by sharing kindness with children and showing them how they can impact their communities. If we instill that model at an early age, we can make the world better.” Jessica Hume, Redman’s mother, is a high school counselor. She typically doesn’t like to sign her children up for day camps during the summer, but she couldn’t resist Camp Kindness. “I loved the mission of the camp,” Hume said. “There is so much negativity and violence in the world. We need to help lift each other up. I love how the camp teaches children to treat others the way you would want to be treated.” Hume said she has signed her children up for all six sessions. She’s

LEtter from the Editor
Come on down! By Nancy Black It’s the kind of TV shows that dominated the airwaves during the early 1970s? What are game shows! Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding! I’m amazed at the resurgence these days of the popular game shows from my youth. “Match Game,” “$20,000 Pyramid” (Now the “$100,000 Pyramid!”), “Family Feud;” I used to set my clock by what show was on TV at the moment. If I were home sick from school, I would get all cuddled up in my mom’s bed, grab the TV Guide, and circle every game show I was going to watch all day. The hosts were like members of my family. Bob Barker on “The Price is Right” was like a father figure to me. Gene Rayburn, from “Match Game,” was a long lost uncle, and everyone wanted Betty White, from “Password,” to be their mother. I was actually on a couple of game shows back in my Hollywood days: “To Tell the Truth” and “Card Sharks.” I won TTTT but lost to the sharks.
My consolation prize was some Turtle Wax and two cases of strawberry Pop Tarts. They weren’t even “real” Pop Tarts; they were the generic kind. And I don’t even like strawberry Pop Tarts! I used to joke that they would be my earthquake food, should we ever have one. And then, in 1994, we did. Trust me, you don’t want to get stuck eating cold strawberry pop tarts after riding through a magnitude 6.7 earthquake. I believe the resurrections of game shows has arrived at just the right time for our society. Sure, some have never truly gone away like “Wheel of Fortune,” “Jeopardy” and, of course, “The Price is Right.” But the rebirth of other old favorites is the perfect counterbalance to what seems to be the never-ending thrust of tragic events in our world today. Who wouldn’t want to win $100,000 in less than one minute? So, thank you, television executives, for introducing a whole new generation to some of my all time favorites. You are all winners in my book. William "Bubba" Flint - Special Contributor
Runway cont'd from page 1 married five times, all to gay men. She said about that, “They weren’t ready for marriage.” John Grissom as Hank, the designer, is by far the strongest character and most experienced actor. Grissom has had roles with Runway for 20 years, while serving as president of the board for several years. Kristin Burgess as Tibby McCullough, mother-of-the-bride and Hank’s best friend, although she tripped over a couple of lines Sunday, can best be described as “a hoot.” Her character just keeps getting further and further out there. Running through July 31, this character study features a banking executive returning to the stage after a 25-year career in the corporate world. Native Dallasite Brian Hoffman, who plays the powerful attorney/father-of-the-bride Jack McCullough, was influenced to act by his sixth-grade teacher, who suggested that he take speech class. He started acting in the seventh grade and continued until his first son was born 20 years ago. His “day job” continues as financial service sales with Bank of America. Hoffman has performed at Undermain Theatre from 199396, in shows including the world premiere of Erik Ehn’s play “Beginner.” His other Undermain credits are “Macbeth,” “Mad Forest” and “Camino Real.” He has performed at Dallas Children’s Theater and he played the title role in “Romeo and Juliet” at Collin Theatre Center. He appeared in two films, including the original “Robocop.” While in college at The University of Dallas, Hoffman performed in a studio production of Elizabeth Wray’s play “Border.” According to the actor, “I feel that was the best work I’ve done as an actor, because the character was so unlike me. At first I was having trouble connecting with the character, but one day I brought a slice of pizza to rehearsal and ate it on stage, and that was when I finally ‘found’ the character.”
When asked about “Regrets Only” from his perspective, Hoffman said: “The show focuses on how society defines marriage, but at its heart, it is really about friendship and loyalty. Paul Rudnick is a tremendous writer. His sense of comic timing is impeccable, and his witty banter is a joy to play.” “My character, Jack McCullough, is a high-powered Manhattan attorney,” he continued. “He truly loves his wife, but he doesn’t realize how his behavior toward her undermines their relationship. While he is a very likable character, it is my challenge to also portray his flaws and demonstrate his depth.” For Hoffman’s oldest son, Jordan, 19, and his youngest, Zachary, 16, this is the first time they’ve seen their dad onstage. “Regret Only” is Hoffman’s first time on stage since 1996. “I took a break from theatre to focus on fatherhood. I always knew I would go back to acting, but I just didn't know when it would be,” he said. The actor took acting classes at STAGE to help him re-enter
the profession. “I wanted to ‘reinvent’ myself and reawaken all of those concepts and skills that had been dormant for so long,” he said. Hoffman added, “I don’t regret any of my choices, but now that I am back on stage, I don’t know how I was able to stay away for so long.” The actor intends to audition throughout the area for upcoming roles. A tongue-in-cheek “poignant” moment in “Regrets Only” is when one guy asked, “What if all the straight guys were to disappear?” The women had an instant answer, “World peace.” Following “Regrets Only,” Runway’s season includes “Bell, Book and Candle” Sept. 23 – Oct. 8, “Great American Trailer Park Christmas Musical” Nov. 25 – Dec. 18, “I’ll Be Back by Midnight” Jan. 27 – Feb. 12, 2017 and in the spring and summer, 2017 “One Slight Hitch,” “Doublewide, Texas” and “Hands on a Hardbody.” For information and ticket sales, visit runwaytheatre.com.

Mull It Over
Rangers better not look down By David Mullen Remember Thursday, June 23? The Texas Rangers had a 10-game lead in the American League Western Division. They had just won 16 out of 20 games and had the best record in the American League. Resting in an easy chair with a smile on your face and cold brew at your side, the thoughts of October baseball were dancing in your head. And then came Friday, June 24.

During the opening reception, co-founder Ewa Korzeniowska unveiled the works of local painter Dr. Chuck McCarter and sculptor Stephen Potter. Guests enjoyed hors d’ oeuvres, Go Texan wines and kid friendly fare. McCarter and Potter both spoke to the crowd of art enthusiasts and fans of the fine arts, thanking the conservatory for supporting local artists and inspiring young creative talent in the local community. As at the opening reception, guests of the upcoming Sept. 15 closing reception will hear musical performances by students of both fine arts schools and pianist Eva Brandys, who is also co-founder of LCFA and founder of sister school Park Cities School of Music. The Summer Art Gallery is open to the public through September 15 during open

MOVIE TRAILER
‘Stranger Things’ is a romp through '80s pop culture By Chic DiCiccio If you plan on counting the homages to 1980s pop culture in the new Netf lix series “Stranger Things,” you’ll quickly run out of fingers and toes. From Spielberg to Carpenter, this eight episode run thrusts everyone that remembers that decade right back into it. “Stranger Things” isn’t just a nostalgic trip. It’s binge-watch-worthy pop culture of the highest order, even when it runs out of juice and veers more into science fiction than creative storytelling and character building. Even then, series creators Matt and Ross Duffer (who also directed six of the eight episodes) keep the action, suspense and creepiness at a high enough level to keep the viewer on alert. The entirety of the show takes place in the fictional small town of Hawkins, Indiana in 1983. After a 10-hour Dungeons and Dragons marathon, Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) is chased while pedaling home on his bicycle by an unseen creature and eventually disappears. This sends the exceptionally small town into a tizzy as serious crimes such as kidnapping are not a regular occurrence. From there, “Stranger Things” follows four or five plot lines that all touch on different genres. The Hawkins police chief, Jim Hopper (David Harbour), investigates a conspiracy with a mysterious Dr. Brenner (Matthew Modine) at the center. The show goes heavy on the “E.T.” vibe while following Will’s trio of friends, Mike, Dustin and Lucas (Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin), as they

Netflix series "Stranger Things" is worth a summer binge. hide Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown), a girl with a limited vocabulary but extraordinary super powers. There’s even some “Carrie” thrown in for good measure as Mike’s older sister, Nancy (Natalia Dyer), pines for the immature high school cool kid, Steve (Joe Keery). There are many surprises as all of these character’s paths converge, but none as compelling or creepy as Will’s mother, Joyce (Winona Ryder). She not only is dealing with an older son, Jonathan (Charlie Heaton), that thinks she may be losing her mind, she is getting phone calls with strange voices on the other end, random lights f lashing on and off in her house what may or may not be a demon from hell trying to appear in the walls of her home. The greatest trick that “Stranger Things” pulls off is that none of its obvious inf luences are blatantly copied. If any of it could be accused of theft, it would be the music from Kyle Dixon and Michael Stein. This synth heavy score
is such a replica of John Carpenter’s scoring of his own films that it should push people to imdb.com to see if Carpenter himself is responsible for it. The story never tangles itself up too much and doesn’t reach levels of “X-Files” paranoia, but it does peter out once all the secrets are revealed. There’s also a feeling of inevitability and predictable plot developments, but style and overall substance makes it easy to overlook. The impressive cast helps “Stranger Things” stay afloat during the lulls. The kids are fantastic as they are either unbelievably seasoned actors for their age or truly have been best pals for years. Their chemistry is that good and each of their roles are written with the perfect amount of childhood fears and bravery. The standouts (other than Matthew Modine’s unbelievably white hair) are Winona Ryder and David Harbour. Harbour has been a character actor on the rise with some impressive work in “Black Mass” and
HBO’s “The Newsroom.” In “Stranger Things,” he perfectly embodies the lonely, drunken, burned out cop who has suffered great personal loss. If you’ve wondered “where has Winona Ryder been,” your question has been answered. Clearly, she was biding her time and preparing for a role that is now the finest acting she’s ever done. Ryder seems ready to fall apart at any moment, yet she keeps her cool, confidence and is fully believable as a tough-asnails single mom. “Stranger Things” is what “The X-Files” could have been had it known where it was going. This show clearly has a story arc with a fully f leshed out ending that manages to be satisfying and leave room for another season. The only problem that “Stranger Things” runs into is letting the cat out of the bag a bit too soon, thus making the last few episodes less impactful. Maybe next time around, the Duffer brothers will string us along a tad longer.

“It gives kids and families access to food as well as a sense of place and belonging,” Terri Thoman, a POP board member, said. Within that mission, POP has two real goals. One is to expand community gardening into neighborhoods to give them access to healthy foods. Their other goal is education. Classes let them take their root beliefs and share them with a new, younger generation. POP believes gardening can provide answers to many of the world’s problems and cultivate aspirations of love and brotherhood. That’s why the expansion of the Bayles Elementary garden is particularly important to them. POP uses a portable building on the school campus once a week to educate the students on both the mechanics of growing healthy foods and the deeper, more profound purposes and potentials of gardening. “It brings students to a global community,” Thomen said. “Not just East Dallas.” Part of that global community for the Bayles students will be the relationships they build with farmers in Italy. Using Skype to create high-tech pen pal relationships with the farmers, students learn that farming is a global process. As part of an idea created by local chefs who moved to Italy, recipes from these Italian contacts will be used to prepare the food the students have grown and harvested.
The task of uprooting one garden and redistributing it was daunting. On the Saturday of the big move, POP was joined by volunteers from the law firm of Hunton & Williams, who were doing their community service hours. Another volunteer came from Fort Worth, answering an appeal on Facebook for help. Chowgene Koay is a community gardener who works a quarter-acre garden at the East Fort Worth Montessori School. He shares POP’s vision of gardening and came because he said he knows how hard it can be to do this work, and how hard it
can be to find help. “The more I garden the more I realize we can’t do this without people,” Koay said. “Who am I if I’m not volunteering?” The near future will be busy for POP. They will again be hosting Okrapalooza, an okra cook-off featuring local celebrity chefs that benefits their gardening work. This year the event is on Sept. 11 at The Lot on Gaston Ave. And their gardening endeavors will expand in a partnership with the La Bajada Urban Youth Farm on Herbert Street in West Dallas. Students from local schools will serve as paid interns there, learning horticulture, nutrition and cooking. All together, these works will help Promise of Peace spread their gospel that gardening is a universal good for people and the planet. If people can learn to cooperate with the earth, they might also learn to cooperate with one other. “We’re giving peace a chance,” Thoman said.

Peace cont'd from page 1
The coming week will see many individuals putting things together in new and creative ways, exploring hitherto untried methods of reaching personal goals, and collaborating in new ways with team members both familiar and unfamiliar. Creativity is indeed the watchword, and it will require a kind of fearlessness that, combined with physical and emotional freedom, can propel anyone to a new level of accomplishment. Even those who are working on routine or familiar projects will find that new methods can add a welcome kind of spice to every endeavor. Putting one's best foot forward should not be difficult, as opportunities abound. Many will find themselves engaging in tasks that fit squarely into their sweet spots.

Rob Brinkly, formerly of FDLUXE, wrote in the Architectural Digest January 2016 issue about this home, beautifully summing up the process of turning the threebedroom, three-full-andtwo-half-bath home into a showplace. “A comprehensive renovation elevated the structure in every way: ceiling heights, finishes, aura. Flemish artisans came to apply naturally pigmented lime washes to the walls, and for the floors, Vervoordt trucked in old Carrara-marble slabs and timeworn wood parquet set in dramatic patterns.” The master bathroom is another area where what might seem to be luxurious excess is really common sense.

This is the sort of house where a celebrity would feel safe, tucked away from the paparazzi, yet still able to have discreet friends over for an al fresco dinner or a dip in the pool. If you’re ready to schedule access to this secret sanctuary call Nichols today — privacy like this is a rare find. And beauty like this won’t last for long.

Dotty's True Texas Cuisine
Dream Café wakes up in Lakewood
Okra more than okay By Dotty Griffith

The Dream Benedict and the Texan Burger at Dream Cafe.
By Sara Newberry When I was a new Dallasite, having just moved here from the suburbs, The Dream Cafe in the Quadrangle seemed like the ultimate upscale bohemian hangout. It was one of the earliest restaurants of its kind in Dallas with not just vegetarian but vegan — vegan! — menu options. The patio opened out onto a rolling green lawn, lending even more of a hippie vibe to the place with kids running around as their moms chatted over organic oatmeal and green tea. Flash forward nearly 30 years: There are now three Dream Cafes, and the clientele is less of the flowy skirt and crystals set than the yoga pants set. The food, however, has remained basically the same. That’s both a positive and a negative. The famous Cloud Cakes, ricotta pancakes topped with strawberries and sweetened whipped cream, are still on the menu and are still fluffy and just slightly sweet. The huge popovers are available both by themselves and as a base for several dishes — they are stellar and, in my opinion, the best thing on the menu. Popovers are the foundation for the Scramblers, which are scrambled eggs mixed with other ingredients, served on a split popover. The crisp bread adds texture to the creamy eggs and other savory fillings. I ordered a spinach and mushroom scrambler on one visit but received a ham and cheddar one. The ham and cheddar was delicious, but not what I actually wanted. (When I mentioned the error to the server, I did receive a spinach and mushroom one to go on the house.) Another signature item is the Dream Benedict, which is a standard Eggs Benedict
with spinach and cherry tomatoes added. The hollandaise had zero lemon flavor, and while some of the tomatoes had been nicely seared, others were completely raw. I’m fine either way, I just wish it had been consistent within the dish. A Country Benedict swaps the hollandaise out for cream gravy and the ham for fried chicken. It was a fun twist on a classic, but again, the gravy was underseasoned. Austin Tacos, wheat tortillas filled with eggs and potatoes and topped with picante cream sauce, were fine but were more like enchiladas than tacos (and I’m not sure what makes them “Austin” style). Sandwiches were also hit or miss. A Texan Burger was juicy and well-seasoned, topped with pepper jack and a stack of crispy onion rings. The Melrose Club, on the other hand, featured a chicken breast so overcooked it was chewy. Service is friendly and accommodating. Servers do tend to disappear after they’ve dropped off your plates in my experience. On all three of our visits, we searched for our server to ask for something and they were nowhere to be found for nearly 10 minutes. I am excited that the Dream Cafe decided to come to Lakewood. I know the neighborhood loves having such an established restaurant nearby. I do wish, though, that they were resting on their laurels a little less. The Dream Cafe 6465 E.

Trash Bash Music Stash 2016 was a sweeping success with approximately 300 people showing up for the litter-cleaning event last weekend. In the picture above, Brandon Giannasi, founder of Trash Bash Music Stash, is seen giving a motivational, pump-up speech the morning of the event while hanging from the side of a dump truck. Much litter was picked up, and music was played and enjoyed. Everyone who participated in the event was given a T-shirt, a $5 Truck Yard gift card, coffee and donuts, and a chance to win raffle prizes.

Camp cont'd from page 1 started by two young Dallas girls whose goal was to raise $500 to partially fund a well in Ethiopia. As of March 1, these two girls, who are now 10 and 12, have raised almost $800,000 to fund more than 100 wells in Ethiopia and more than 10 other countries including the Navajo Reservation in New Mexico. “It just shows that we can all make a difference,” Hume said. “You just have to find what speaks to your heart, and then go out and do it.” Children ages three to nine can participate in the camp. But, there is also space for older children. Redman’s sister, Caroline Hume, is 10 years old and is a camp helper.

“I like leading the little kids,” Caroline said. “I don’t know how to explain it, but I was learning the same stuff they were. I really enjoyed it.” Caroline helped bake chocolate muffins with the younger campers as part of the day’s activities. Each child received two muffins, one for themselves and one to give to someone else. “What these kids are learning is really empowering,” Bright said. “And, it’s also a lot of fun.” Redman said he still hadn’t decided who he was going to share his second muffin with. “My sister, maybe, because I want to be nicer to her,” he said.
