From Salumi & Formaggi to fresh produce, the market is vigilant in being transparent about the orgin of products.

PRESTON HOLLOW felt like a movie neighborhood much of the time for Dalya Romaner. As a kid she spent weekends playing in the Kramer Elementary playground and later rode her bike on the Cottonwood trail. Her favorite spot was the Purple Cow at Preston Royal Village before it closed, and her favorite day of the year was shopping with grandma at Neiman Marcus to buy outfits, followed by lunch at the Mermaid Bar. She even took her senior photos in the NorthPark courtyard. The 24-year-old’s first job after graduating from Southern Methodist University was at Omniplan, the architecture firm that designed the mall. Now she’s public relations director at Eataly Dallas, the most-anticipated opening of 2020. “My go-to neighborhood spot where I still spend a lot of time is NorthPark,” Dalya says. “I know this mall inside and out, backwards and forward. It’s really fun to be back here working for Eataly.” She first experienced Eataly in Boston, while studying

at Brandeis University. “I spent hours walking around and exploring all the shelves, and then my friends and I had dinner there and the love affair continued,” she says. “So I have tracked Eataly since that experience.” What makes it even better — her father, Ron Romaner, is a pizzaioli, pizza-maker, at Eataly’s Pizza alla Pala. He’s come full circle since his very first job at 14, washing dishes in a pizza joint. The 60-year-old baker previously ran a café at his children’s school and a small baking operation. “I had done a bit of research about the company,” Ron says. “That, coupled with Dayla’s impressions, convinced me that this was a company with strong values, a family feel, and they support local businesses.” The 60-year-old baker ran a café at his children’s school and a small baking company before coming to Eataly. “It makes me so happy to walk into work every morning

FAST FACTS The 46,000-squarefoot market includes three restaurants and individual counters for cheese, meat, bread, fish, pastries and gelato. The takeaway counter serves hot and cold meals. TERRA A wood-fire grill concept heavily focused on meat. The pollo intero, a three-day brined chicken that’s steamed, smoked and scorched, is specific to the Dallas location. LA PIZZA & LA PASTA From Campaina imported dry pasta to black truffle and mushroom cream pizza, this restaurant offers a variety of authentic pastas and pizza.. IL PASTAIO is a sitat-the-counter pasta and wine bar.

The Romaner family has lived in Preston Hollow for more than 20 years.

and see him. I get to say hi, catch up and then get to work,” Dalya says. “He ran his own baking business for the last couple of decades, so I have always helped him in the kitchen, so it makes me proud and happy to feel like I’m back in the kitchen with him again, even if I’m not baking.” Ron moved to Preston Hollow in 1995, and says his day consist of “pizza, pizza, pizza.” Part of Dayla’s focus is making sure Dallas’ existing food culture is incorporated in everything Eataly Dallas does. The first Eataly opened in Turin, Italy in 2007 and no two locations are quite the same. They’re not making brisket-in store but the butcher counter sells it, despite not being a traditional Italian ingredient. Just as you wouldn’t see as an extensive fresh greens selection in Eataly Flatiron, you won’t find upstate-New York produce in Dallas. If it’s not made Texas, it’s most likely from a small Italian producer in one from the country’s 20 regions. Ron hopes other places will realize the value of supporting local providers and getting involved in their community. The majority of

the store’s 400-plus employees are local. More than anything, it says a lot about the developing culinary scene here. Dallas was named Bon Appetit’s Food City of the Year in 2019. Ten Dallas chefs were on the James Beard nominee list in 2020. Petra and the Beast, Bullion, Lucia, Regino Rojas of Purépecha and the French Room all received national nods. Stars of the culinary world are flocking here to open high-end joints. “We have watched our food get more sophisticated and interesting over time,” Dalya says. “So this is validation for everything we believe about how amazing our food scene is here.” There was a steady line all day to get into the market the first week it opened. Reservations to Terra were booked through the end of December almost immediately. “You can’t help but fall in love with that kind of passion,” Dalya says. “I was already a big believer in the brand and its products, but now I have seen the behind-the-scenes and I believe in it even more.”

new year, new me

It’s been a year. Salons, spas and clinics closed long enough for us to miss them. Here are products and tips from neighborhood experts for a fresh 2021. “Maskne” is the skincare issue no one saw coming. According to Dr. Kejal Shah, a preventive and cosmetic dermatologist at Cooper Clinic Dermatology, it is a form of acne mechanica, caused by the combination of rubbing from the mask, which irritates the skin, increasing oil production and causing clogging of the ducts with bacteria. She recommends washing your face and applying an oil-free moisturizer before using a mask, to protect the skin. Avoid wearing makeup under the mask. After taking off your mask, wash your face with a cleanser containing salicylic acid and use an oil-free moisturizer to hydrate and restore the skin barrier. Beauty store CosBar manager Shanna Miller is noticing that people are using more skincare, eye makeup (4) and changing their foundation (3). “A lot of people are having to change their foundation that they wear because the face mask is changing their skin,” Miller says. “Normally, I didn’t sell a lot of eye makeup. I sold more like brighter lips, because it’s so hot here. But now it’s definitely a lot more eye products, because that’s what you see and literally just lip balm because lips are chapped.” Miller recommends Slip masks (2), which are made of silk. What hasn’t change though, is neighborhood’s love of Augustinus Bader (1). “Even if you’re 18 years old, even if you’re 68 years old, is good for men and for women,” Miller says.

How the Junior League Shaped Dallas 100 YEARS OF PHILANTHROPY Story by JEHADU ABSIRO Photography by OWEN JONES

t the turn of the century, Dallas was shifting from an agricultural economy to focus on banking, insurance and retail. There was a newly minted Federal Reserve Bank. Oak Cliff had been annexed, and it was home to the 15-story Praetorian, the first skyscraper west of the Mississippi River. A modern Dallas was being shaped. Two years after the 19th Amendment was approved, 10 Dallas women, mostly mothers, decided to form the 22nd Junior League in the United States in 1922. That decision kickstarted 100 years of philanthropy, focusing on issues from education to domestic violence. From buildings and parks to the most impactful philanthropy, Junior League women have been instrumental in molding Dallas. “We have shaped the impact that women can have in all parts of the functioning of our community and our city. The League trains volunteers, but we train leaders, too,” says League president-elect Christa Sanford. Genesis Women’s Shelter CEO Jan Langbein developed her passion — fighting domestic violence — as a League member. Our Friends Place, an organization dedicated to assisting abused, impoverished and homeless young women, was started by League member Susybelle Gosslee. Artist and former Christie’s vice president Carolyn Burns Foxworth served on the Dallas Museum of Art board and was appointed by Gov. Bill Clements to the Texas State Fine Arts commission. A League president in 1967, Sally Freeman McKenzie was involved in national political campaigns beginning with Dwight D. Eisenhower’s presidential run in 1956. She was a delegate to the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, served on the board of more than 20 organizations in Dallas and held several corporate posts. That’s only four women out of thousands who have been League members. “I don’t see the history of the League as building a

grand monument one year, and then 10 years later doing something less magnificent. It is just a very steady river of assistance to the whole city of Dallas,” says sustaining member Margo Goodwin. oining the League serves as a launchpad to volunteering for women ages 22 to 45. Volunteers are either placed in in-league positions where they focus on organizational matters or embedded in outside agencies as community volunteers. Both positions have a yearly hours requirement of donated time. Members are trained on time management, how to operate a board, fundraising and underwriting. Once a member is older than 45, she’s no longer required to fulfill the hours requirement. With a membership of 4,000, the League provides funding and volunteers to about 40 organizations. “We like to think of it as sort of a one-two punch. We’re providing funding, but we’re doubling, tripling our impact by sending volunteers. We’re certainly seeing that now during the pandemic,” says current president Elizabeth Dacus. “The agencies are really coming back to us and saying ‘we feel how much you help us’.” The organization pivoted a lot of its operations to vir tual this year. L eague members are still able to work with English-learning groups and help with financial training for those who don’t have resources. Volunteers pick up supplies to prep school projects and take them to teachers. “It’s a whole new level of stress that we’re seeing with teachers trying to figure out how to do things socially distant, how to have classes online, plus in person, and so anything some of our volunteers can do helps,” Dacus says. The League’s innovative teaching program makes small grants to Dallas ISD Teachers, and the League

raises money for applicants requesting up to $2,500 for their classrooms. “It’s not a huge amount of money, but it’s an opportunity to do some really cool things in their classrooms that they never would have been able to do, everything from technology to kids learning more about architecture to sustainable gardening,” Sanford says. Typically, the League hosts an in-person awards ceremony gifting the grants. The virtual event this year awarded $85,000 to 40 DISD educators. “Teachers come, and to see how excited they are!” Sanford says. “That money’s not going into their pockets, it is going into the minds of these kids, and how ecstatic they are to get this funding so that they can help their kiddos in their classrooms take their education one step further.” o-centennial chair Andrea Cheek arrived in Dallas not knowing many people or much about the city. A family friend suggested she join the League. “I was really looking to meet like-minded women who enjoyed giving back to the community. Now I’ve been involved for 11 years, and I love it. And it really has made Dallas feel like home for me,” Cheek says. Cheek and Goodwin, a member since 1977, are leading the efforts to restore the Juanita Craft House in South Dallas.

In 2016, a committee of 35 past League presidents was formed to help select a special centennial project for League members. Rather than selecting an organization they were already involved with, Cheek and Goodwin started talking with people throughout Dallas in hopes of finding the perfect project. Restoring the Juanita Craft house was suggested. The League vote selecting the project was unanimous. Craft was a Dallas civil rights activist who organized more than 180 branches of the NAACP. She was the first

Black woman in Dallas to vote in a public election, and she helped integrate Dallas ISD and the University of Texas Law School. Martin Luther King Jr. and President Lyndon B. Johnson both visited her Warren Street home in Wheatley Place Historic District. “We looked into it, and the more we knew, the more it was obvious that it was the perfect choice. It will be around for a long time. Our members were very excited about it,” Goodwin says. The home, which was flooded and severely damaged, will be renovated and restored by 2022. The League also is investing in an education program with DISD that will focus on Craft’s legacy. “She was a self-trained volunteer, and what she accomplished is just a testament to what one woman can do when she puts her mind to it. It really resonated with all Junior League members,” Goodwin says. In preparation for the group’s centennial celebration, League members began archiving and documenting a full list of League members who have founded agencies, ser ved as public officials and lead public service initiatives. “Thinking back 100 years ago, there were a few families that were involved in key efforts,” Sanford says. “But now, just the scope and breadth of the people who are involved with the Junior League, and even beyond the Junior League, who are really taking an interest in serving has really been incredible to see.” unior League is entering the next 100 years in a post-COVID world. The past year drew attention to issues such as accessible health care, domestic violence, access to quality education and financial training that can pull people out of poverty. Arts organizations throughout Dallas lost more than $68 million in revenue during the first three quarters of 2020. There is no shortage of issues for League members to tackle in coming years. Sanford and the board hope to hit ground running in 2021. “The centennial year, I don’t see it as the culmination of 100 years. It is truly the beginning of our next hundred years,” Sanford says. “We’re

really thinking as a board about where is the League going to be for the next hundred years.” The most important thing, Goodwin says, is to use your voice when you have something to say. “The time to say it is when you’re thinking about it,” Goodwin says. “I think for all the years of the League from 1922 forward, I don’t know how long it took women to get to the point where we are now, where we realized that our voice matters, that we have the power and the intelligence to make a difference.”

Headquarters, located on Inwood Road, is also being renovated with an endowment that was set up by prolific investor Lyda Hill while she was on the board. Archival photos courtesy of the Junior League of Dallas.

THE BEE EFFECT

SPENCER BURKE IS TACKLING SOLITARY BEE DECLINE ONE GRASS CLUSTER AT A TIME IN THE DOCTOR WHO episode “The Stolen Earth”, migrant bees leave the Earth to go back their original planet. The story piqued St. Mark’s junior Spencer Burke’s interest. He started reading about colony collapse disorder, when entire colonies of honeybees abruptly disappear. The

“beepocalypse”, a term coined in 2006, made news headlines across the country. Turns out honeybees haven’t rapidly declined: Everyone was up in arms about the wrong bee. Instead, the 16-year-old Burke’s research showed solitary bees are declining. Every

female solitary bee is a queen. They are all fertile and burrow into the ground to lay eggs. Unlike communal honeybees, solitary bees are responsible for the bulk of pollinating crops and wild plants. Burke’s parents were skeptical at first but signed him up for classes so he could

EDUCATION GUIDE

A FEW FAVORITE THINGS: When Burke isn’t working on his bee project or juggling six Advanced Placement classes, he loves playing chess. He has an affinity for classicist culture. Murray Gold, the composer behind Doctor Who (2005), is one of his favorite lively orchestral musicians. Burke plays trombone and euphonium. He’s a fencer on St. Mark’s varsity team. Friday nights are for Dungeons and Dragons. Burke would love to pick up blacksmithing. “I can’t convince my parents to let me build a forge. For some reason, their argument is ‘you’re going to burn the house’,” Burke says. gain a basic understanding of bees. He decided he would focus solely on solitary bees and began formulating a plan. “It’s a global issue. There’s no way I can truly make a huge difference in global scale. But if I can make a difference in the local scale, that can eventually reach a global scale,” Burke says. Pests, pathogens, pesticides and habitat loss are leading causes of solidary bee decline, he says. “There’s very little I can do about global warming,” Burke says. “I can’t really prevent people from using pesticides, but I can address a habitat loss and mass urbanization, which is arguably the biggest cause.” Burke obtained Twelve Hills Nature Center board president Marcie Haley’s contact information from his brother, who had volunteered at the center. His plan came together early in his sophomore year: Burke would work on revitalizing native wildlife on a tract of land to help combat habitat loss for the bees. A team made up of his family, his Boy Scout troop and other friends spent eight hours on the first workday digging up enough grass to fill 21 contractor bags. Once they removed invasive species — Johnson, Bermuda and Chinese Privet — native grasses such as big bluestem and Indian grass spread and served as a citadel for other native plants. “We came back, and we saw giant big bluestem that wasn’t there before. It showed me that we actually had done something that was semi-effective. And it just wasn’t a waste of time,” Burke says. Before he heads off to college, Burke wants to see the Twelve Hills spot fully integrated with native plants, and he plans to install 100 solitary beehives throughout Dallas. Burke says he attended a conference where he introduced himself to City of Dallas urban biologist Brett Johnson. Burke told Johnson he was interested in building solitary beehives and installing them throughout the city. “It’s a surreal feeling. I’ve been in the right place the right time. A lot of times,” Burke says. Johnson and Burke are working on a distribution plan to be executed in the next few months. “It’s a reminder that you don’t have to wait ’til you’re 25 to make a difference. You don’t have to wait ’til you’re 23. You don’t have to wait ’til you’re 17,” Burke says. “You can make a difference whenever. It’s all up to you.”

WORSHIP

By Matthew Ruffner

Start the new year with a bit of light The deepest darkness is the very place where grace, hope, and love are born.

was driving down Northaven Road the Monday after Halloween this year and happened to glance out of my driver’s side window. Through the glass front door of a home, I could see an illumined Christmas tree fully decorated in the living room. I immediately called a friend and said, “You’re never going to believe this, but I just saw my first Christmas tree of the season!” They replied, “Even I don’t put up a Christmas tree this early! I wait until closer to Thanksgiving!” It was the Monday after Halloween, after all. I can certainly understand needing a bit of light and hope in the form of a Christmas tree this past year. 2020 was anything but normal. There is a lot of soul searching happening these days. Nine months into a pandemic that many hoped would force us to isolate for a few weeks has caused us all to do a bit of soul searching. It has been nine months of working from home, nine months of homeschooling, nine months of socially distancing from those we love. And not to mention another contentious election that has left even the best of friends struggling to understand one another. A general malaise has settled in over us as a people, a collective weariness is in the air, and below the surface of every person I talk to is the question, “Can I just hold on for a bit longer?” That’s where we find ourselves after the holiday season. No matter your faith tradition, light played a prominent role in your celebration. It is no coincidence that many of our

religious holidays fall near the winter solstice, the calendar year’s darkest point. This was done intentionally to mirror the light re-emerging into creation as the days gradually become longer. Our faith traditions wanted to reflect what creation is revealing, that the deepest darkness is not the place where grace, hope, or love go to die. No, the deepest darkness is the very place where grace, hope, and love are born.
