Naturally, this curly cook has breakfast wired By Bronwen Roberts If you’ve been to Good Local Markets in Dallas, chances are you’ve tried one of Kelly Ball’s kolaches — or at least fought the temptation to do so. Emanating from her booth, the irresistible aromas — somewhere between rustic European bakery and grandma’s kitchen — draw hungry market-goers by the swarm. Latecomers may be disappointed to find that the quiche usually sells out by noon. And with a crust so flaky, it’s no wonder. Julia Child would be proud. From bite-sized hors d'oevres to entire catered events, the Naturally Curly Cook, as Ball is otherwise known, handcrafts all of her food creations from scratch, developing unique recipes and sourcing the freshest ingredients. She goes for locally

A self-proclaimed “picky” eater, she wouldn’t put anything on your plate that she wouldn’t put on her own. “I grew up cooking,” Ball
said, a warm smile beaming through her eponymous brunette curls. Raised between Louisiana and East Texas, Ball learned to prepare meals on a budget, which ultimately led to an obsession with the right ingredients and a genuine enjoyment of the cooking process. Finally settling in
Dallas in 2008 after college in Chicago, she has slowly but surely turned her passion into a fledgling business, sharing her love of cooking with an appreciative — and hungry — following. Ball and her small

Dancing in the streets: Williams keeps DBDT in step By Shari Goldstein Stern When the City of Dallas names a street after you, you know you’ve arrived. The namesake of Ann Williams Way in the downtown Dallas Arts District was honored with the gesture in 2014, and today she recalls the honor as “Just peachy!” She is the artist and businesswoman who set out 40 years ago to give young African American dancers a stage and to teach the community’s children to dance. Ms. Williams founded the Dallas Black Dance Theatre (DBDT) and Academy in 1976, and later added DBDT II. Only someone with this city leader’s humility could resist, after receiving such an honor, doing a happy dance on the roof of the former Moorland YMCA, now DBDT’s home. “I am proud that we have a home in the Arts District; a state of the art historic building that was once the hub of African American activities and is now owned by DBDT, housing our academy, administration and rehearsal space for both companies,” the artist shared. What the modest but tenacious Ms. Williams won’t tell you is that in reality, the Moorland building was procured after she successfully launched a long, tedious campaign, engaging all involved parties throughout a dreadfully long time to make it happen. This summer, Ms. Williams was recognized with the Ernie Award at the 2016 Dance/USA Annual Conference in Austin, the country’s broadest gathering of dance professionals. “I am humbled to receive this award from Dance/USA,” said Ms. Williams. “It's heartwarming to be selected by your peers.” The Ernie is awarded to an individual whose

Against all odds, this talented dancer pioneered a unique opportunity for African American dancers in Dallas. She evolved way ahead of her time in the mid-'70s. According to Zenetta Drew, DBDT executive director: “Dallas Black Dance Theatre has succeeded because of the vision of its founder. She started the organization to fulfill a need so that

Feline Stressbusters
Stable environment just one of many keys to cat health By Dr. Beth Leermakers People aren’t the only creatures who suffer from stress. Animals also experience stress, although they may not show it in obvious ways. Stress can be a sign that your cat has a health problem. Like it does in people, stress suppresses a cat’s immune system, causing illnesses such as cystitis. Cats may hide their distress, making it tricky to spot. Pay attention to subtle and not-so-subtle signs that your cat is stressed. Cats share some of these stress symptoms — decrease in appetite, increased sleeping, gastrointestinal distress, isolation — with people. According to petmd.com, the following are 10 signs your cat may be stressed: • Going to the bathroom outside the litter box. Your cat is trying to tell you something. Pay attention and consult your vet.
• Diarrhea, constipation or other digestive problems. • Excessive grooming. Although cats are often fastidious about grooming themselves, there can be too much of a good thing. If your cat has licked himself raw or bald, he’s distressed. • Excessive scratching. • Isolation. Some cats are aloof by nature. However, if your cat is constantly hiding from you and everyone in your home, something is probably wrong. When you finally manage to corral the little darling, take her to the vet. • Excessive vocalization. Unusually long or recurring bouts of panicked meows can be a sign of stress, especially if your cat isn’t normally a talker. • Decrease in appetite. • Increased sleeping. Some cats sleep

20 hours per day, but yours may not. Contact your vet if your cat is sleeping more than usual or seems lethargic. • Aggression toward other animals. • Aggression toward people. What Causes Stress in Cats? Changes in environment often stress cats out. Some cats are very sensitive to subtle changes that you

Chips are flawed By Nancy Black I didn’t realize what I had done until I was already home. I had walked the dog, locked up the house and taken off my shoes. I was so excited to have made it through another busy deadline day. Now, I was ready for some down time watching some mindless TV. “Oh, no!” I suddenly thought to myself. “Did I take my ATM card out of the machine?” I had stopped at my local bank after I left my office that night to make a quick deposit. And then I just plain forgot to remove my card after my transaction. I blame it on the new “chips” that credit and debit cards have these days. Some automatic teller machines instruct you to leave the card in the card reader during the entire transaction. Then, after you get your cash and receipt,
the ATM flashes a message reading, “Please remove your card.” But there are other machines that tell you to remove your card first and then your receipt will be issued. Some stores use the new chip cards; others have hand-written signs on their credit card terminals saying, “No chips!” To swipe or not to swipe — that is the question. You never know what you’re going to run up against. The new cards are fitted with a small metallic high-tech chip, an EMV, which stands for Europay, MasterCard, Visa — the three companies that created the standard. ABC News reported the chip’s goal is: “keeping thieves from easily accessing consumers’ personal information.” According to creditcards. com, credit card fraud is a growing problem in the U.S. They report about 31.8 million
U.S. consumers had their credit card information stolen in 2015. Retailers and small businesses who do not upgrade their credit card networks will be liable for any Visa, Discover or Mastercard credit card transactions that are fraudulent if the card is EMVequipped. If fraud occurs when a magnetic stripe card is swiped at a chip-enabled terminal, the bank is still responsible for the fraud. American Express will transfer liability to business owners on Oct. 16. Gas stations have until 2017 to replace readers at pumps. “No,” was the answer to the question I had asked myself earlier. I had not removed my card from the machine. By the time I got a hold of the bank the next morning, they had already destroyed my card. I had to go to a special branch location to get it replaced the same day. Otherwise, I would
barely notice. These conditions may create stress: • Dirty litter box. Can’t blame ‘em. • Moving into a new home. • Bringing a new pet into your family. • New furniture or f looring in your house. Human visitors. That’s a great excuse for telling your in-laws they have to stay at a hotel: “I’m so sorry, but my cat gets very stressed when people visit.” Loud noises (construction, loud music, thunder, fireworks). What should you do if your cat seems stressed? If your cat’s behavior changes: Consult your veterinarian. There may be an underlying medical condition. Your vet can recommend steps to reduce your cat’s stress. Change the litter box more often. Use a litter that your cat prefers. Most cats don’t like heavily scented litter. If you have several cats, use at least one litter box per cat, plus one extra. Be sure the litter box is large enough for your cat to fit comfortably, and place it in a quiet area of your house so your cat can go in peace. Use medication or change your cat’s diet. Talk to your vet about pheromone products that may relieve stress or anxiety. Feed a high-quality cat food. Ask your vet for recommendations or consult catfoodadvisor.com for reviews. Most cats are grazers, so it’s best to feed small amounts several times per day. Avoid free-feeding (leaving food out at all times) if you have several cats to prevent them from becoming overweight. Provide plenty of water. Many cats have had to wait eight to 10 business days. It may not be my new chip card’s fault that I left the card in the ATM. But I’m going to blame it anyway. Please, credit card companies, let’s all work from the same rules. Swipe the card or insert the chip reader? Pick one, already!
don’t drink enough water. Dehydration can contribute to illness and stress. Feed a canned food so that your cat gets more moisture. Some cats prefer to drink f lowing water, so a fountain or dripping faucet may encourage your cat to drink enough. If you have several cats, you may need several water stations. Establish a regular routine. Minimize change in your cat’s life by following a daily schedule for meals, bedtime and playtime (yours and your cat’s). Create a happy-cat environment: • Perches (cat trees, shelving) allow cats to survey their surroundings from up high and detect danger before it approaches. Provide multiple perches for multiple cats. [http:// petmd.com/cat/centers/nutrition/ are-you-causing-your-cat-stress] • Scratching surfaces are important for your cat’s health and well-being. They let your cat mark his territory, preventing stress and anxiety. Provide both horizontal and vertical scratching surfaces — at least one surface per cat. Doing so will protect your furniture. • Hiding places. Cats need a place to get away from it all when they feel threatened or stressed. A box or cat carrier works well. • Play time. Give your cat exercise and mental stimulation with interactive games. Aim for 20-30 minutes of playtime twice a day to keep your cat happy, health and wise. • Snuggle time. In addition to reducing your cat’s stress, petting a cat (or dog) reduces blood pressure and has other health benefits for people. Win-win. By providing a stable, cat friendly environment, you’re helping Fluffy be happy, healthy and stress-free.

HIP TO BE SQUARE
What is the cause of arthritis? By Dr. Don Hohman dhohman@gdortho.com
One of the most common questions I am asked in the office daily is what causes chronic knee pain? The most common cause of chronic knee pain and disability is arthritis. There are many factors which may play a role leading to arthritis such as individual genetics or metabolic factors, such as diabetes. Although there are many types of arthritis, most knee pain is caused by just three types: osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis. Osteoarthritis. This is an age-related
"wear and tear" type of arthritis. It usually occurs in people 50 years of age and older, but may occur in younger people, too. The cartilage that cushions the bones of the knee softens and wears away. The bones then rub against one another, causing knee pain and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis. This is a disease in which the synovial membrane that surrounds the joint becomes inflamed and thickened. This chronic inflammation can damage the cartilage and eventually cause cartilage loss, pain, and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common form of a group of disorders termed "inflammatory arthritis."
Post-traumatic arthritis. This can follow a serious knee injury. Fractures of the bones surrounding the knee or tears of the knee ligaments may damage the articular cartilage over time, causing knee pain and limiting knee function. Donald Hohman, MD, is a fellowshiptrained Orthopaedic Surgeon specializing in joint replacements of the hip and knee. He completed his specialty training at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital of the Harvard Medical School-Boston, Mass. If you have any further questions please feel free to utilize the educational material provided on the website gdortho.com, or his office can be reached at 214-252-7039.

Mull It Over
College football season opens with a roar By David Mullen This may be one of the most highly anticipated college football seasons in years. At least it starts out that way. Part planning, part luck and part chance, the 2016 NCAA Division I college football season opens up like Bevo sprinting across the field at Darrell K. Royal Memorial Stadium in Austin or a cannon explosion from “Tightwad Hill” at Memorial Stadium in Berkeley. Since most opponents are booked years in advance, no one could have anticipated the half dozen games that will open the college football year could have so much impact on the 2016 season. Taking a page from the NFL, the NCAA will play their opening game out of the country or in this case, in a land down under. The California Golden Bears – the home team despite traveling 7,433 miles — open the season against the Hawaii Photo by Timothy D. Easley Rainbow Warriors in Sydney, Australia. The game is on Friday, Aug. 26, unless you Deshaun Watson, Clemson quarterback. live in Sydney.

On the heels of the successful biennial Aurora public art event last year, the nonprofit AT&T Performing Arts Center, in partnership with the founders of Aurora, announced that the tradition of a minievent in the off-year will continue. Prelude: A Preview of Aurora 2017 will be held on two nights this year instead of one, Friday, Oct. 21 and Saturday, Oct. 22. Prelude, which remains free to the public, will have a more compact footprint transforming parts of the AT&T Performing Arts Center campus and the Meyerson Symphony Center with light, video and sound-based immersive arts installations. Live music, including Brave Combo and Larry g(EE), will precede each night of Prelude in Strauss Square. Both performances are free to the public. “We have narrowed down the curators and artists for Prelude and are really excited about what we’re presenting,” said Shane Pennington, one of the founding artists of Aurora. He and co-founder Joshua King have scheduled 10 significant immersive works for 2016. “We want to make sure the
experience for visitors is personal, surprising and exciting and allows them to see art in a different way.” Aurora events in 2011, 2013 and 2015 stretched across the Dallas Arts District. Last year’s event attracted a record 50,000 people in a single night. Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings said he’d like to see Aurora expand to an annual, multiple-night event that becomes a major destination tourist attraction. “Aurora drew its biggest audience ever in 2015, which was an incredible achievement,” said Center President and CEO Doug Curtis. “We know visitors still want that unique and intimate experience with the art. Spreading the visitors throughout more nights and fine-tuning the location of the art and signage, should help boost the artistic impact and provide new strategies as we plan for another major Aurora year in 2017.” Guest curators for Prelude are Justine Ludwig (Dallas), Nadim Samman (Berlin) and Dooeun Choi (New York). Details on the artists and installations will be released at a later date. To sign up for updates and to RSVP to this free event, visit attpac.org/prelude.

MOVIE TRAILER
Jakubowicz’s ‘Hands of Stone’ a split decision By Chic DiCiccio The most frustrating aspect of “Hands of Stone” is that somewhere in the 105 minutes of movie is a great film about Panamanian boxing legend Roberto Duran. Instead, it’s buried under far too many subplots and characters that are far more fun to be around than Duran himself. Therein lies the biggest problem with writer/director Jonathan Jakubowicz’s biopic: The guy that it’s all about is not a very nice fella. Duran (convincingly played for roughly 20 years of life by Edgar Ramirez) spends most of the movie mouthing off to his trainer, Ray Arcel (Robert De Niro), and his Photos courtesy of The Weinstein Company wife, Felicidad (Ana de Armas). In fact, other than his initial courtRobert De Niro as Arcel and Edgar Ramirez as Duran in the punch drunk "Hands of Stone." ship of her, he and the screenplay there to allow De Niro to be, well, work him in much more. treat her like nothing more than a De Niro.

Maybe even a look at the unsteady larly dreadful deed done by Duran as it shows Duran winning a boxing relationship between the U.S. and against Leonard’s wife that should match, having sex with Felicidad, then Panama during the late 1960s to early her pumping out a baby.

The CDC found that smoking bans also decrease the sheer number of smokers, which is at an all-time low. From the CDC: “Studies have shown that the implementation of smoke-free laws and policies can increase cessation and reduce smoking prevalence among workers and the general population and may also reduce smoking initiation among youth.” And our children need non-smoking role models, especially now as they head back to the school grounds, home of peer pressure galore. Back-to-school photos are all over social media, and the start of a new school year is often a kick start to a healthy lifestyle similar to a New Year’s resolution. I love seeing the healthy lunches packed for kids, students jumping on buses or riding their bikes and motivated parents hitting the gym as everyone gets back into a school routine. Let’s not lose this motivation. Don’t let your healthy intentions succumb to quick ease that’s bad for your kids’ health, your health and the environment.

Your Stars this Week by Stella Wilder
The coming week will proceed very much according to plan for most people, and that should come as little surprise to those who have made firm schedules, established clear priorities and goals, and put in the requisite time preparing for what comes. There are some, however, for whom the week will be chock-full of surprises — both private and public. This is when one must accept the fact that honesty is the best policy — those who are willing to come clean can prevent much of the damage, or undo any that has been done, as a result of past lies or half-truths that may have been told when one's back was against the wall. Those who tell the truth, regardless of what they fear may result, can very likely avoid such results!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) You will get closer than ever to someone who has been orbiting around you for some time. There's more to it than you might think! (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) – Your curiosity may get the better of you, prompting you to pursue answers to questions not yet asked.
When it comes to personal relationships, the brave are sure to be rewarded — again, by coming clean, or by admitting affections that may have lain dormant and unacknowledged for some time. Confessing one's love can send both parties into the stratosphere, and the resulting relationship can last a long time, indeed.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) You may become ensnared by someone who uses his or her intelligence to lay effective traps. Is this a bad thing? (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) – You'll have reason to count your blessings as the week draws to a close. Much will happen to bring you face to face with yourself.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) You'll spend some time tracking down those who can give you up-to-date information. Be prepared for a lengthy process. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) – You can have what you want, but you're going to have to be patient. All good things to those who wait!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) You may have to put up something of a fight in order to have things work out to your liking. An adversary puts you through it! (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) – Your curiosity about someone's former life may send you on a journey in which you discover much about yourself.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) Your progress may be thwarted for a time when you come up against a self-made obstacle. You can overcome it quickly. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) – That which began as merely a temporary distraction could become an

One or two threaten to reappear. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) – You'll have many decisions to make, but none will be as important as your choice of companion on a surprise journey. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) An unexpected threat may have you making dramatic adjustments to the way you do the most ordinary things. It's an interesting week!

ARIES (March 21-April 4) You may reconnect with someone who, in effect, reconnects you with yourself. This is a gift that really does keep on giving! (April 5-April 19) – Gather your forces and be ready to do battle by week's end. The opponent you face is formidable, but you have a secret weapon.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) You are more able to control your emotions than you have been in the recent past, and all who know you will surely be grateful. (June 7-June 20) – Someone who has your back may be concerned that you're not taking the precautions you should. Make some adjustments! CANCER (June 21-July 7) You'll have to interrupt yourself several times in order to deal with a recurring distraction. You may need some help! (July 8-July 22) – The quality of your work will not be in question, but some may doubt that you are really invested on a personal level. LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) The view from where you find yourself can be much brighter than any you have enjoyed in recent weeks. Why not stay awhile? (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) – Your surroundings have a much more significant effect on your every endeavor than you had anticipated. You may have to make a change.

candace@candysdirt.com The big news is that the O’Neil Ford Highland Park masterpiece is to be auctioned off by Heritage. If you read CandysDirt. com faithfully, as you should, you know we have written about 3756 Armstrong Ave., one of the most architecturally significant homes ever built in Dallas. Located on the delicious juncture of two magnificent Highland Park streets, Armstrong Avenue and Overhill Drive, the home was a commissioned private residence for Jack and Nancy Penson, highly loved Dallas philanthropists. Mr. and Mrs. Penson’s names are on the Meyerson Symphony Center’s Endowment Wall of Honor, recognition to their longtime support of the orchestra, and a building is named after them at The Hockaday School. Mrs. Penson died in 2012, her husband in 2014. Built in 1954, the 8,900-square-foot estate was the creation of O’Neil Ford, known as the grandfather of Texas Modernism and widely recognized as one of Texas’ most celebrated 20thcentury architects. O’Neil Ford designed most of the
Candace Evans University of Dallas campus in Irving: Braniff Memorial Tower, the Braniff Graduate Center, the Gorman Lecture Center, parts of the art village, the Haggar University Center and the Haggerty Science Building. San Antonio, his home base, is covered in his work: the renovation of La Villita, the campus of Trinity University, the campus of Saint Mary’s Hall, the University of Texas at San Antonio Main Campus and the Tower of the Americas. He also created buildings for Skidmore College in upstate New York and for Texas Instruments. O’Neil Ford completed the design of the building of the Museum of Western Art in Kerrville in the Texas Hill Country shortly before his death in 1982. His sturdy structures always utilized brick, glass and wood, and were brilliantly attuned to their physical settings. I have been in this home.
The attention to detail and craftsmanship will simply blow your mind. If you are a mid-century aficionado, this home is your mothership. And guess what? It’s going to be auctioned off. Built for extreme privacy on one of Highland Park’s most exclusive streets, almost hidden by trees, mature landscaping surrounds this property. And the lot is a whopping .85 acres, which itself appraised for $6.1 million back in February. The home has also been listed in the past for $5.9 million, but come Sept. 27, our very own Heritage Auction Luxury Real Estate will auction the Penson estate to the highest bidder. Thinking of picking up a historical Highland Park bargain? Then get thee to the auction. If you have never been, check out my primer on Real Estate Auctions on the blog. Like most auction houses, Heritage Auction Luxury Real Estate bidders are required to pre-qualify for a property auction by submitting proof of guaranteed funds. Bids are only accepted in person or by phone. For more information on Heritage Auctions, please call 855-261-0573 or email luxuryestates@ha.com. Auctioneer is Mike Sadler.

This home is located at 3756 Armstrong Avenue and is up for auction. Dance cont'd from page 1 minority children in the 70s could learn to appreciate dance and pursue it as a career. Now the organization has become the 10th largest minority arts organization in America, touring across the country and around the globe. Ms. Williams never stopped dreaming bigger goals for Dallas Black Dance Theatre and pursuing it with excellence.” The organization has earned an exceptional reputation, which Ms. Williams said attracts some of the nation’s most talented dancers coming to audition. “My dreams are coming true, with an organization that is well managed and providing ‘Artistic Excellence’ in its teaching and performances.” She gives credit to some of those who have helped make her dreams come true: Alpha Kappa Alpha members Susie Bell, Avalyn Pace and Veronica Frazier; Link members Helen Giddings and Verna Mitchell. “I also appreciate community and civic leaders who believed in me, like the late Mary Bywaters, Annette Strauss, Ruth Altshuler and Margaret McDermott.” According to Ms. Williams, the organization’s long tenure is directly tied to the in-house expression of “Artistic Excellence.” She said, “We stress this with our teachers, dancers, staff, parents and the entire organization.” DBDT’s annual performances and outreach activities have grown from 30 to more than 600 events. To date, the dance company has toured five continents, 15 countries and 31 states, along with performing at two Olympics. Audiences have increased from 20,000 to 150,000 patrons annually. An estimated 20,000 dancers and students have been touched by DBDT during its 40-year history. The oldest former dancer is Edward Morgan, who went on to the Joffrey Ballet after DBDT. Today he has his own dance company in New York. A few other former DBDT dancers who have made successful careers in dance are Jamal Story, a choreographer who has performed with Cher, Madonna and in many Broadway productions. Bravita Threatt is currently appearing in “The Lion King” on Broadway. Christopher McKenzie, Jr. is with “The Lion King” at Disneyworld. Michael Jackson, Jr. is with Alvin Ailey Dance Company. Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings said, “Ann is one of the premier heroes in Dallas because she believes in excellence in everything she does. She holds herself and her dancers to a high degree of professionalism. She’s given her life to this for so long that she has significantly raised the art form of dance in Dallas and particularly
in the minority community. “Ann has been a mentor to many young men and women and really changed their lives,” he added. “They understand what fine arts is all about. Her tenacity in creating a home for DBDT in the historically significant Moorland YMCA building, including her own fundraising effort, resulted in a first-class addition to the arts community and all the way toward Deep Ellum. On behalf of the city and the citizens of Dallas, I want to thank Ann for all you have done to make Dallas a better city.” A few more of Ms. Williams’ colleagues and friends shared some thoughts about her Ernie Award and DBDT’s 40th anniversary. Ted Munselle, 2016 Dallas Summer Musicals Board Chair, said: “On behalf of Dallas Summer Musicals, I extend our congratulations to Ann Williams for receiving the prestigious Ernie Award and for Dallas Black Dance Theatre’s celebration of their 40th anniversary. We are fortunate to have Ann as a performing arts advocate in Dallas, who through her dedication and contribution inspires us to continue to enrich the lives of others through their craft. Our thanks to her for all that she does for the arts and our community.” Craig Holcomb, president, Friends of Fair Park and former Dallas City Councilman said, “Ann has always been a strong voice for the arts and for minority participation in the arts. For years the DBDT has been an active part of the Dallas arts community and has worked so that all groups, large and small, in all areas — dance, drama, visual arts and music — had a place at the table.” Holcomb continued, “I particularly respect Ann because Dallas is not a town with a lot of dance lovers. And yet she has persevered, creating a troupe that is perhaps better respected outside of Dallas than in Dallas.” Michael A. Jenkins, president of LARC, Inc. and Starlight Entertainment said, “I have known Ann for more than 24 years. She is one of the most creative people that I have ever met. We have worked together on a number of events, shows, etc. She ‘sets the bar high’ and has always exceeded everyone’s expectations.” Ms. Williams’ aspirations for DBDT’s future include performing at Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival in the Berkshires, American Dance Festival at Duke University and the Kennedy Center. As to her own future, she aspires to “playing bridge, enjoying luncheons with my girlfriends and, of course, family.” For more information about Dallas Black Dance Theatre and its performance schedule, visit dbdt.com.

Solid lunch specials at Oak Fish Tacos with Mango Slaw By Dotty Griffith
dotty.griffith@yahoo.com Lunch specials sometimes aren’t so special. Not the case at Oak, where there’s an ongoing specials campaign. Sure, the upscale restaurant wants to emphasize that they’re open for lunch as well as dinner. To make an impression, they’re going against type, offering a $15 filet on Fridays and weekday “two courses for $20” enticements. That ought to give you something to talk about. Thought has gone into these menus. The 6-ounce filet comes with combo fries — sweet and white potato — an arugula salad and a couple of sauces, horseradish cream and housemade O16 steak sauce. The 2 for $20 menu known as the Power Lunch has mix-and-match options. Start with your choice of a Caesar or field green salad, soup du jour or hummus. Then select from a smoked chicken club sandwich, the Oak Burger, street tacos (filling changes daily), penne pasta with housemade Italian sausage and grilled, three-cheese sandwich with tomato soup.

Mull cont'd from page 3 conference opponent Ohio State is better, and Michigan plays in the “Big Horseshoe” in Columbus in the last game of the season. Like the preseason AP poll, predictions this early rarely hold up. But here are a few anyway. Houston, Texas (opening at home against No. 10 Notre Dame), TCU and North Carolina will be surprise teams this season. The Pac-12 is far and away the best conference, but may not be represented among the four teams in the College Football Playoffs National Championship because the top team may have two losses. The Heisman Trophy finalists will be Watson, Cook, Fournette and Stanford’s Christian McCaffrey. And the national champion will be Clemson. It is the year of the

Tigers, not — sorry Michigan — the year of the Khakis. Note: College football analyst Rod Gilmore and I had two things in common growing up as close friends in Oakland. We wanted to go to Stanford. And we wanted to be sports broadcasters. I made it to California, did some college broadcasting and wrote sports for newspapers. Gilmore made it to Stanford and eventually became an ESPN analyst. Annually, Rod and I do the Mull It Over college football preview. But last week, Gilmore was diagnosed with a form of blood cancer known as Multiple Myeloma. The prognosis is good, but he needs time to build up his strength and get ready for the upcoming season when we all look forward to seeing him in front of the ESPN cameras again. Godspeed, my friend.
