May 12, 2008If you've been watching Last Restaurant Standing on BBC America, be sure to tune in for the finale on Tuesday (8 p.m. Central). The next-to-last episode repeats just before it at 7 p.m. No spoilers here, but the two remaining couples face a pretty daunting challenge in France as they try to be the last of nine pairs remaining and win their dream of opening a restaurant under the tutelege of chef Raymond Blanc. Among those judging the final efforts are Raymond's mother -- looking even sterner than Rocco DiSpirito's mama in The Restaurant.  Comments (2) Leave comment

Saturday -- which was great fun, by the way. And I dutifully stuck around to taste a pink cupcake from Delicious Cakes at the Pinkalicious after-show party, even though I have never been a cupcake fan. And really, I was just planning an itty bitty taste. But oh my goodness, Delicious Cakes has quite converted me. What a lovely, light, lemony confection and that pink frosting -- WOW. That confection disappeared quickly! Comments (4) Leave comment

Theatre Arlington is offering an adults-only BYOB night this Thursday for its production of the wacky comedy The Book of Liz. You can bring your own beverage to drink in the lobby before the show from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. (I.D.s will be checked). The theater's also planning similar nights for productions of The Boyfriend on June 19 and Perfect Wedding on Aug. 7.

| E-mail entryThe entry "Bice closed" has no entry tags. Metro columnist Jacquielynn Floyd may feel like a pioneer in the wilderness, but those cloth bags she insists on using instead of paper or plastic are the wave of the future. Here are two more, designed with foodies in mind. The Dallas Farmers Market has a colorful, shallow-and-wide tote with the farmers market name on it and mesh panels. Neat, for $20. I saw it at Koster-Pastabilities next to El Mercado. Whole Foods Market is selling a dual-purpose tote. First, it's a tote for a cause: The purchase price of each Feed 100 bag provides 100 school lunches to needy children in Rwanda. What's also nifty is the way it looks like a small burlap clutch, which unzips to reveal the all-cotton tote. The outside of the clutch becomes, a la Transformer, the bottom of the tote. Way cool for $29.99. (Then again, getting it back inside is kind of like repacking a parachute.) Comments (1) Leave comment
