That’s right. Me.I’m a sucker for Bastille Day. I love the nod to France right here in our own Bishop Arts backyard. I can’t help it…I find the drinks divine, the crepes scrumptious, the petanque intriguing. And we haven’t even got to the jaunty berets or the cute striped shirts that folks don (obviously).

Why would so many folks come out on what is usually a sizzling summer day in Texas? Sure, we have a vague, way-back Oak Cliff connection to France with the La Reunion colony. More importantly, our current-day party maven, Amy Cowan, loves an excuse to throw an excellent fete. And what a doozie this one is. For one night only, several local restaurants will be at booths offering French-themed foods. The crepes, by Oak Cliff Creperie, get top billing. Take my advice and arrive early, otherwise, you’ll be in line for hours. Wine and good drinks are always front and center. But what I believe makes the whole thing come together is the petanque court, right in the middle of the action. You can use the "boules" provided and do as the French do.

It really is the best event of the year. Don’t take my word for it, though. Come out and see for yourself. They sell out every year, so you’ll want to reserve your spot at www.bastilleonbishop.com. Fancy glass plus your first drink included. And all the petanque and "oui oui" you can stand. See you there!

I am so honored to be featured on Candy’s Dirt again!  Val and I can’t wait for you all to see this home.

In the mean time enjoy the sneak peaks here:

Flipping Out: Jenni Stolarski’s Latest Oak Cliff Flip is Phenomenal

There’s a fascinating trend we’re seeing in Dallas homes this year, and believe us, it’s a bit surprising. No really, that’s the trend—surprise! Take this beautiful home in the vibrant Briarwood neighborhood. 5011 Purdue loves surprise.

Around each corner, this beautifully updated home enchants with a spiral staircase, a gorgeous wine closet, and a light-loving glass door opening the kitchen to an outdoor oasis. (p.s. You can fall in love with this home in person! It’s open this Sunday—5/4/2014—from 3-5 p.m.)

By this point, you’ve likely seen a photo or two of this renovation that Val is working on in North Oak Cliff.

Here are some from yesterday. The home is about 2 weeks out from completion. But if you’ve ever done any type of home improvement project, you’ll understand how elastic “2 weeks” can be. Really, all that’s left is kitchen counters, exterior work and clean up. Oh, and the 30-odd item punch list. Details.

The house had 3 beds and 1 bath, but it was changed to a 2 bed, 2 bath layout to cater to current living standards. I love the quite street it sits on and its view to the Turner House over the back fence. The front covered porch is pretty large–seems like it will be a great place to sit or entertain.

Despite all the extra hours, hands-on work (like installing bathroom sinks yesterday) and delays, Val has enjoyed this project. We hope whoever buys and lives here, feels the love.

XO.
