ldquoWe go around surprising localsrdquo saysKim explaining that she begins by askingsome of her frequent customers to select aperson or business to receive a visit fromthe fairy bundtmother The recipient thenchooses the next person or business and itgrows from there ldquoItrsquos a pay-it-forward ap-proachrdquo says Kim
While it may be the most interestingway that Kim gives back to the communityitrsquos by no means the only way Child SafeAny Baby Can the Junior League San An-tonio Food Bank and the Ronald McDon-ald House have all been on the receivingend of Kimrsquos sweet donations and contri-butions Her newest endeavor A backpackdriveThroughout the summer any cus-tomer who brings in a new or gently usedbackpack to the Stone Oak or the AlamoHeights location will receive a free bundlet
ldquoItrsquos just who I amrdquo Kim says of herphilanthropic efforts ldquoI truly believe thatwhat goes around comes aroundrdquo
BUNDTING IT OUT OF THE PARKKim and her family moved to San An-
tonio from Fort Worth in 2011 After spend-ing 17 years in the banking industry Kimsuddenly found herself a stay-at-homemom in a new city where she didnrsquot know
anyone At a loss for what to do Kim foundher calling when she heard about NothingBundt Cakes from a family friend Sheand her husband purchased the San An-tonio region of the franchise and afterspending a month in Las Vegas with thefounders learning the recipes and opera-tions Kim was ready to open the firstshop in June of 2012

HOW CONRAD NETTING IVLEARNED OF HIS FATHERrsquoS HEROISM
delayedlegacydelayedlegacy
It took Conrad John Netting IV 50 yearsto really ldquoknowrdquo his father The successfulAlamo Heights-based CPA and long-term78209 resident born in 1944 six weeks afterthe combat death of his father Conrad IIIgrew up with a few photographs hismotherrsquos remembrances and the knowledgethat this man he never knew was buried inan American military cemetery in France
Then thanks to the contents of a dustyfootlocker this son received a delayedlegacy that unraveled the mysteries of whohis father was an intense love shared brieflybetween a husband and wife and ultimatelyhow a fighter pilot earned the gratitude of asmall village half a world away
With the passing of Conradrsquos motherKatherine in 1993 came the inevitable dutyof sorting through her possessions It wasduring this activity that he discovered theolive drab military footlocker (bearing hisfatherrsquos name) in the rear of his motherrsquosOlmos Park garage He took it home Theunopened locker remained sealed until July4 1994 when with gathered family watch-ing an emotional Conrad forced the boxopen revealing an interior carefully packed

with 50-year-old uniforms notebooksmedals and other items dating from theUnited Statesrsquo involvement in World War IIThese preserved relics represented a directlink to his late father Lt Conrad J NettingIII Fighter Pilot US Army Air Corps
The uniforms medals and other militaryitems were important to Conrad because theybelonged to his father Especially poignantwas the young lieutenantrsquos flight log with afinal entry (dated June 10 1944) from a com-rade detailing the crash of Nettingrsquos P-51Mustang after a dramatic strafing of enemyfuel trucks Treasures of equal value how-ever were the many personal letters the trunkcontained mdash hand-written daily correspon-dence his newly wedded parents had sentback and forth five decades earlier All chron-icled the deep relationship the two hadshared Reading these letters and handling themilitary materials provided Conrad with aunique window back in time and a special in-sight into the man his father was
From the correspondence Conrad grew toknow the personal and private side of a lovinghusband and eager father-to-be The enclosedmedals and military documents established
his father as a brave and honorable man Itwas eventually a letter from France howeverthat completed the picture Conrad discov-ered that his father was also a hero
That letter arrived eight years after theopening of the old footlocker It was post-marked from the small village of SaintMichele des Andaines in Normandy Franceand was written by Sylvie Grandin TheFrenchwoman was writing on behalf of herfather Michel who had been searching forinformation about a ldquobrave American soldiernamed Conrad Nettingrdquo Sylviersquos father wasa child when Netting crashed near the villageHer paternal grandfather recovered the bodyand (at risk because of the German occupa-tion) constructed a coffin organized a funeraland interred the deceased that night in thecemetery The downed pilot was hailed as ahero for his attack on the German fuel trucksmdash fuel that was destined to be used againstthe French population
Since that crash the name Conrad Nettinghas been revered in Saint Michele After read-ing the letter Conrad IV now realized ldquowhattown my father died in that he had a Chris-tian burial and that he was lovingly and com-

You will be happy to know if you donrsquot already thatdespite moving from its iconic Broadway location someyears ago Earl Abelrsquos still has its fair share of charac-termdashincluding the indelible chatty-quirky waitressesSome of them may be the same for all I know
Even if you werenrsquot a fan of the equally iconic friedchicken or the prodigious pies or of Thursdayrsquos Salis-bury steak (who else does this after all) yoursquod still haveto admit that service from a waitstaff thatrsquos not cookie-cutter interchangeable is reason enough to pay old Earl avisit If itrsquos on a Wednesday you can even have the meat-loaf
Served with a Creole sauce thatrsquos anything but daintythe meatloaf is everything it should be rustic robustlyflavored and generously portioned There are more thana dozen available sides and as two come with each dailyspecial plate feel free to go wild if beets and mac andcheese are your secret passion we wonrsquot tellmdashbut wewill suggest that at least once the sauteacuteed cabbage oughtto be tried itrsquos porky and still a little crunchy and re-minds at least some of us that therersquos virtue to be had in

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

ldquoWe go around surprising localsrdquo saysKim explaining that she begins by askingsome of her frequent customers to select aperson or business to receive a visit fromthe fairy bundtmother The recipient thenchooses the next person or business and itgrows from there ldquoItrsquos a pay-it-forward ap-proachrdquo says Kim

tonio from Fort Worth in 2011 After spend-ing 17 years in the banking industry Kimsuddenly found herself a stay-at-homemom in a new city where she didnrsquot know

HOW CONRAD NETTING IVLEARNED OF HIS FATHERrsquoS HEROISM
delayedlegacydelayedlegacy
It took Conrad John Netting IV 50 yearsto really ldquoknowrdquo his father The successfulAlamo Heights-based CPA and long-term78209 resident born in 1944 six weeks afterthe combat death of his father Conrad IIIgrew up with a few photographs hismotherrsquos remembrances and the knowledgethat this man he never knew was buried inan American military cemetery in France
Then thanks to the contents of a dustyfootlocker this son received a delayedlegacy that unraveled the mysteries of whohis father was an intense love shared brieflybetween a husband and wife and ultimatelyhow a fighter pilot earned the gratitude of asmall village half a world away
With the passing of Conradrsquos motherKatherine in 1993 came the inevitable dutyof sorting through her possessions It wasduring this activity that he discovered theolive drab military footlocker (bearing hisfatherrsquos name) in the rear of his motherrsquosOlmos Park garage He took it home Theunopened locker remained sealed until July4 1994 when with gathered family watch-ing an emotional Conrad forced the boxopen revealing an interior carefully packed

with 50-year-old uniforms notebooksmedals and other items dating from theUnited Statesrsquo involvement in World War IIThese preserved relics represented a directlink to his late father Lt Conrad J NettingIII Fighter Pilot US Army Air Corps
The uniforms medals and other militaryitems were important to Conrad because theybelonged to his father Especially poignantwas the young lieutenantrsquos flight log with afinal entry (dated June 10 1944) from a com-rade detailing the crash of Nettingrsquos P-51Mustang after a dramatic strafing of enemyfuel trucks Treasures of equal value how-ever were the many personal letters the trunkcontained mdash hand-written daily correspon-dence his newly wedded parents had sentback and forth five decades earlier All chron-icled the deep relationship the two hadshared Reading these letters and handling themilitary materials provided Conrad with aunique window back in time and a special in-sight into the man his father was
From the correspondence Conrad grew toknow the personal and private side of a lovinghusband and eager father-to-be The enclosedmedals and military documents established
his father as a brave and honorable man Itwas eventually a letter from France howeverthat completed the picture Conrad discov-ered that his father was also a hero
That letter arrived eight years after theopening of the old footlocker It was post-marked from the small village of SaintMichele des Andaines in Normandy Franceand was written by Sylvie Grandin TheFrenchwoman was writing on behalf of herfather Michel who had been searching forinformation about a ldquobrave American soldiernamed Conrad Nettingrdquo Sylviersquos father wasa child when Netting crashed near the villageHer paternal grandfather recovered the bodyand (at risk because of the German occupa-tion) constructed a coffin organized a funeraland interred the deceased that night in thecemetery The downed pilot was hailed as ahero for his attack on the German fuel trucksmdash fuel that was destined to be used againstthe French population
Since that crash the name Conrad Nettinghas been revered in Saint Michele After read-ing the letter Conrad IV now realized ldquowhattown my father died in that he had a Chris-tian burial and that he was lovingly and com-

If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

BUNDTING IT OUT OF THE PARKKim and her family moved to San An-
tonio from Fort Worth in 2011 After spend-ing 17 years in the banking industry Kimsuddenly found herself a stay-at-homemom in a new city where she didnrsquot know
anyone At a loss for what to do Kim foundher calling when she heard about NothingBundt Cakes from a family friend Sheand her husband purchased the San An-tonio region of the franchise and afterspending a month in Las Vegas with thefounders learning the recipes and opera-tions Kim was ready to open the firstshop in June of 2012

HOW CONRAD NETTING IVLEARNED OF HIS FATHERrsquoS HEROISM
delayedlegacydelayedlegacy
It took Conrad John Netting IV 50 yearsto really ldquoknowrdquo his father The successfulAlamo Heights-based CPA and long-term78209 resident born in 1944 six weeks afterthe combat death of his father Conrad IIIgrew up with a few photographs hismotherrsquos remembrances and the knowledgethat this man he never knew was buried inan American military cemetery in France
Then thanks to the contents of a dustyfootlocker this son received a delayedlegacy that unraveled the mysteries of whohis father was an intense love shared brieflybetween a husband and wife and ultimatelyhow a fighter pilot earned the gratitude of asmall village half a world away
With the passing of Conradrsquos motherKatherine in 1993 came the inevitable dutyof sorting through her possessions It wasduring this activity that he discovered theolive drab military footlocker (bearing hisfatherrsquos name) in the rear of his motherrsquosOlmos Park garage He took it home Theunopened locker remained sealed until July4 1994 when with gathered family watch-ing an emotional Conrad forced the boxopen revealing an interior carefully packed

The uniforms medals and other militaryitems were important to Conrad because theybelonged to his father Especially poignantwas the young lieutenantrsquos flight log with afinal entry (dated June 10 1944) from a com-rade detailing the crash of Nettingrsquos P-51Mustang after a dramatic strafing of enemyfuel trucks Treasures of equal value how-ever were the many personal letters the trunkcontained mdash hand-written daily correspon-dence his newly wedded parents had sentback and forth five decades earlier All chron-icled the deep relationship the two hadshared Reading these letters and handling themilitary materials provided Conrad with aunique window back in time and a special in-sight into the man his father was
From the correspondence Conrad grew toknow the personal and private side of a lovinghusband and eager father-to-be The enclosedmedals and military documents established
his father as a brave and honorable man Itwas eventually a letter from France howeverthat completed the picture Conrad discov-ered that his father was also a hero
That letter arrived eight years after theopening of the old footlocker It was post-marked from the small village of SaintMichele des Andaines in Normandy Franceand was written by Sylvie Grandin TheFrenchwoman was writing on behalf of herfather Michel who had been searching forinformation about a ldquobrave American soldiernamed Conrad Nettingrdquo Sylviersquos father wasa child when Netting crashed near the villageHer paternal grandfather recovered the bodyand (at risk because of the German occupa-tion) constructed a coffin organized a funeraland interred the deceased that night in thecemetery The downed pilot was hailed as ahero for his attack on the German fuel trucksmdash fuel that was destined to be used againstthe French population
Since that crash the name Conrad Nettinghas been revered in Saint Michele After read-ing the letter Conrad IV now realized ldquowhattown my father died in that he had a Chris-tian burial and that he was lovingly and com-

You will be happy to know if you donrsquot already thatdespite moving from its iconic Broadway location someyears ago Earl Abelrsquos still has its fair share of charac-termdashincluding the indelible chatty-quirky waitressesSome of them may be the same for all I know
Even if you werenrsquot a fan of the equally iconic friedchicken or the prodigious pies or of Thursdayrsquos Salis-bury steak (who else does this after all) yoursquod still haveto admit that service from a waitstaff thatrsquos not cookie-cutter interchangeable is reason enough to pay old Earl avisit If itrsquos on a Wednesday you can even have the meat-loaf

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

HOW CONRAD NETTING IVLEARNED OF HIS FATHERrsquoS HEROISM
delayedlegacydelayedlegacy
It took Conrad John Netting IV 50 yearsto really ldquoknowrdquo his father The successfulAlamo Heights-based CPA and long-term78209 resident born in 1944 six weeks afterthe combat death of his father Conrad IIIgrew up with a few photographs hismotherrsquos remembrances and the knowledgethat this man he never knew was buried inan American military cemetery in France
Then thanks to the contents of a dustyfootlocker this son received a delayedlegacy that unraveled the mysteries of whohis father was an intense love shared brieflybetween a husband and wife and ultimatelyhow a fighter pilot earned the gratitude of asmall village half a world away
With the passing of Conradrsquos motherKatherine in 1993 came the inevitable dutyof sorting through her possessions It wasduring this activity that he discovered theolive drab military footlocker (bearing hisfatherrsquos name) in the rear of his motherrsquosOlmos Park garage He took it home Theunopened locker remained sealed until July4 1994 when with gathered family watch-ing an emotional Conrad forced the boxopen revealing an interior carefully packed

The uniforms medals and other militaryitems were important to Conrad because theybelonged to his father Especially poignantwas the young lieutenantrsquos flight log with afinal entry (dated June 10 1944) from a com-rade detailing the crash of Nettingrsquos P-51Mustang after a dramatic strafing of enemyfuel trucks Treasures of equal value how-ever were the many personal letters the trunkcontained mdash hand-written daily correspon-dence his newly wedded parents had sentback and forth five decades earlier All chron-icled the deep relationship the two hadshared Reading these letters and handling themilitary materials provided Conrad with aunique window back in time and a special in-sight into the man his father was
From the correspondence Conrad grew toknow the personal and private side of a lovinghusband and eager father-to-be The enclosedmedals and military documents established
his father as a brave and honorable man Itwas eventually a letter from France howeverthat completed the picture Conrad discov-ered that his father was also a hero
That letter arrived eight years after theopening of the old footlocker It was post-marked from the small village of SaintMichele des Andaines in Normandy Franceand was written by Sylvie Grandin TheFrenchwoman was writing on behalf of herfather Michel who had been searching forinformation about a ldquobrave American soldiernamed Conrad Nettingrdquo Sylviersquos father wasa child when Netting crashed near the villageHer paternal grandfather recovered the bodyand (at risk because of the German occupa-tion) constructed a coffin organized a funeraland interred the deceased that night in thecemetery The downed pilot was hailed as ahero for his attack on the German fuel trucksmdash fuel that was destined to be used againstthe French population

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

HOW CONRAD NETTING IVLEARNED OF HIS FATHERrsquoS HEROISM
delayedlegacydelayedlegacy
It took Conrad John Netting IV 50 yearsto really ldquoknowrdquo his father The successfulAlamo Heights-based CPA and long-term78209 resident born in 1944 six weeks afterthe combat death of his father Conrad IIIgrew up with a few photographs hismotherrsquos remembrances and the knowledgethat this man he never knew was buried inan American military cemetery in France
Then thanks to the contents of a dustyfootlocker this son received a delayedlegacy that unraveled the mysteries of whohis father was an intense love shared brieflybetween a husband and wife and ultimatelyhow a fighter pilot earned the gratitude of asmall village half a world away
With the passing of Conradrsquos motherKatherine in 1993 came the inevitable dutyof sorting through her possessions It wasduring this activity that he discovered theolive drab military footlocker (bearing hisfatherrsquos name) in the rear of his motherrsquosOlmos Park garage He took it home Theunopened locker remained sealed until July4 1994 when with gathered family watch-ing an emotional Conrad forced the boxopen revealing an interior carefully packed

with 50-year-old uniforms notebooksmedals and other items dating from theUnited Statesrsquo involvement in World War IIThese preserved relics represented a directlink to his late father Lt Conrad J NettingIII Fighter Pilot US Army Air Corps
The uniforms medals and other militaryitems were important to Conrad because theybelonged to his father Especially poignantwas the young lieutenantrsquos flight log with afinal entry (dated June 10 1944) from a com-rade detailing the crash of Nettingrsquos P-51Mustang after a dramatic strafing of enemyfuel trucks Treasures of equal value how-ever were the many personal letters the trunkcontained mdash hand-written daily correspon-dence his newly wedded parents had sentback and forth five decades earlier All chron-icled the deep relationship the two hadshared Reading these letters and handling themilitary materials provided Conrad with aunique window back in time and a special in-sight into the man his father was
From the correspondence Conrad grew toknow the personal and private side of a lovinghusband and eager father-to-be The enclosedmedals and military documents established
his father as a brave and honorable man Itwas eventually a letter from France howeverthat completed the picture Conrad discov-ered that his father was also a hero
That letter arrived eight years after theopening of the old footlocker It was post-marked from the small village of SaintMichele des Andaines in Normandy Franceand was written by Sylvie Grandin TheFrenchwoman was writing on behalf of herfather Michel who had been searching forinformation about a ldquobrave American soldiernamed Conrad Nettingrdquo Sylviersquos father wasa child when Netting crashed near the villageHer paternal grandfather recovered the bodyand (at risk because of the German occupa-tion) constructed a coffin organized a funeraland interred the deceased that night in thecemetery The downed pilot was hailed as ahero for his attack on the German fuel trucksmdash fuel that was destined to be used againstthe French population
Since that crash the name Conrad Nettinghas been revered in Saint Michele After read-ing the letter Conrad IV now realized ldquowhattown my father died in that he had a Chris-tian burial and that he was lovingly and com-

You will be happy to know if you donrsquot already thatdespite moving from its iconic Broadway location someyears ago Earl Abelrsquos still has its fair share of charac-termdashincluding the indelible chatty-quirky waitressesSome of them may be the same for all I know
Even if you werenrsquot a fan of the equally iconic friedchicken or the prodigious pies or of Thursdayrsquos Salis-bury steak (who else does this after all) yoursquod still haveto admit that service from a waitstaff thatrsquos not cookie-cutter interchangeable is reason enough to pay old Earl avisit If itrsquos on a Wednesday you can even have the meat-loaf
Served with a Creole sauce thatrsquos anything but daintythe meatloaf is everything it should be rustic robustlyflavored and generously portioned There are more thana dozen available sides and as two come with each dailyspecial plate feel free to go wild if beets and mac andcheese are your secret passion we wonrsquot tellmdashbut wewill suggest that at least once the sauteacuteed cabbage oughtto be tried itrsquos porky and still a little crunchy and re-minds at least some of us that therersquos virtue to be had in

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

HOW CONRAD NETTING IVLEARNED OF HIS FATHERrsquoS HEROISM
delayedlegacydelayedlegacy
It took Conrad John Netting IV 50 yearsto really ldquoknowrdquo his father The successfulAlamo Heights-based CPA and long-term78209 resident born in 1944 six weeks afterthe combat death of his father Conrad IIIgrew up with a few photographs hismotherrsquos remembrances and the knowledgethat this man he never knew was buried inan American military cemetery in France
Then thanks to the contents of a dustyfootlocker this son received a delayedlegacy that unraveled the mysteries of whohis father was an intense love shared brieflybetween a husband and wife and ultimatelyhow a fighter pilot earned the gratitude of asmall village half a world away
With the passing of Conradrsquos motherKatherine in 1993 came the inevitable dutyof sorting through her possessions It wasduring this activity that he discovered theolive drab military footlocker (bearing hisfatherrsquos name) in the rear of his motherrsquosOlmos Park garage He took it home Theunopened locker remained sealed until July4 1994 when with gathered family watch-ing an emotional Conrad forced the boxopen revealing an interior carefully packed

with 50-year-old uniforms notebooksmedals and other items dating from theUnited Statesrsquo involvement in World War IIThese preserved relics represented a directlink to his late father Lt Conrad J NettingIII Fighter Pilot US Army Air Corps
The uniforms medals and other militaryitems were important to Conrad because theybelonged to his father Especially poignantwas the young lieutenantrsquos flight log with afinal entry (dated June 10 1944) from a com-rade detailing the crash of Nettingrsquos P-51Mustang after a dramatic strafing of enemyfuel trucks Treasures of equal value how-ever were the many personal letters the trunkcontained mdash hand-written daily correspon-dence his newly wedded parents had sentback and forth five decades earlier All chron-icled the deep relationship the two hadshared Reading these letters and handling themilitary materials provided Conrad with aunique window back in time and a special in-sight into the man his father was
From the correspondence Conrad grew toknow the personal and private side of a lovinghusband and eager father-to-be The enclosedmedals and military documents established
his father as a brave and honorable man Itwas eventually a letter from France howeverthat completed the picture Conrad discov-ered that his father was also a hero
That letter arrived eight years after theopening of the old footlocker It was post-marked from the small village of SaintMichele des Andaines in Normandy Franceand was written by Sylvie Grandin TheFrenchwoman was writing on behalf of herfather Michel who had been searching forinformation about a ldquobrave American soldiernamed Conrad Nettingrdquo Sylviersquos father wasa child when Netting crashed near the villageHer paternal grandfather recovered the bodyand (at risk because of the German occupa-tion) constructed a coffin organized a funeraland interred the deceased that night in thecemetery The downed pilot was hailed as ahero for his attack on the German fuel trucksmdash fuel that was destined to be used againstthe French population
Since that crash the name Conrad Nettinghas been revered in Saint Michele After read-ing the letter Conrad IV now realized ldquowhattown my father died in that he had a Chris-tian burial and that he was lovingly and com-

You will be happy to know if you donrsquot already thatdespite moving from its iconic Broadway location someyears ago Earl Abelrsquos still has its fair share of charac-termdashincluding the indelible chatty-quirky waitressesSome of them may be the same for all I know

Served with a Creole sauce thatrsquos anything but daintythe meatloaf is everything it should be rustic robustlyflavored and generously portioned There are more thana dozen available sides and as two come with each dailyspecial plate feel free to go wild if beets and mac andcheese are your secret passion we wonrsquot tellmdashbut wewill suggest that at least once the sauteacuteed cabbage oughtto be tried itrsquos porky and still a little crunchy and re-minds at least some of us that therersquos virtue to be had in

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-

The uniforms medals and other militaryitems were important to Conrad because theybelonged to his father Especially poignantwas the young lieutenantrsquos flight log with afinal entry (dated June 10 1944) from a com-rade detailing the crash of Nettingrsquos P-51Mustang after a dramatic strafing of enemyfuel trucks Treasures of equal value how-ever were the many personal letters the trunkcontained mdash hand-written daily correspon-dence his newly wedded parents had sentback and forth five decades earlier All chron-icled the deep relationship the two hadshared Reading these letters and handling themilitary materials provided Conrad with aunique window back in time and a special in-sight into the man his father was
From the correspondence Conrad grew toknow the personal and private side of a lovinghusband and eager father-to-be The enclosedmedals and military documents established
his father as a brave and honorable man Itwas eventually a letter from France howeverthat completed the picture Conrad discov-ered that his father was also a hero
That letter arrived eight years after theopening of the old footlocker It was post-marked from the small village of SaintMichele des Andaines in Normandy Franceand was written by Sylvie Grandin TheFrenchwoman was writing on behalf of herfather Michel who had been searching forinformation about a ldquobrave American soldiernamed Conrad Nettingrdquo Sylviersquos father wasa child when Netting crashed near the villageHer paternal grandfather recovered the bodyand (at risk because of the German occupa-tion) constructed a coffin organized a funeraland interred the deceased that night in thecemetery The downed pilot was hailed as ahero for his attack on the German fuel trucksmdash fuel that was destined to be used againstthe French population

You will be happy to know if you donrsquot already thatdespite moving from its iconic Broadway location someyears ago Earl Abelrsquos still has its fair share of charac-termdashincluding the indelible chatty-quirky waitressesSome of them may be the same for all I know

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

You will be happy to know if you donrsquot already thatdespite moving from its iconic Broadway location someyears ago Earl Abelrsquos still has its fair share of charac-termdashincluding the indelible chatty-quirky waitressesSome of them may be the same for all I know
Even if you werenrsquot a fan of the equally iconic friedchicken or the prodigious pies or of Thursdayrsquos Salis-bury steak (who else does this after all) yoursquod still haveto admit that service from a waitstaff thatrsquos not cookie-cutter interchangeable is reason enough to pay old Earl avisit If itrsquos on a Wednesday you can even have the meat-loaf
Served with a Creole sauce thatrsquos anything but daintythe meatloaf is everything it should be rustic robustlyflavored and generously portioned There are more thana dozen available sides and as two come with each dailyspecial plate feel free to go wild if beets and mac andcheese are your secret passion we wonrsquot tellmdashbut wewill suggest that at least once the sauteacuteed cabbage oughtto be tried itrsquos porky and still a little crunchy and re-minds at least some of us that therersquos virtue to be had in

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

You will be happy to know if you donrsquot already thatdespite moving from its iconic Broadway location someyears ago Earl Abelrsquos still has its fair share of charac-termdashincluding the indelible chatty-quirky waitressesSome of them may be the same for all I know
Even if you werenrsquot a fan of the equally iconic friedchicken or the prodigious pies or of Thursdayrsquos Salis-bury steak (who else does this after all) yoursquod still haveto admit that service from a waitstaff thatrsquos not cookie-cutter interchangeable is reason enough to pay old Earl avisit If itrsquos on a Wednesday you can even have the meat-loaf
Served with a Creole sauce thatrsquos anything but daintythe meatloaf is everything it should be rustic robustlyflavored and generously portioned There are more thana dozen available sides and as two come with each dailyspecial plate feel free to go wild if beets and mac andcheese are your secret passion we wonrsquot tellmdashbut wewill suggest that at least once the sauteacuteed cabbage oughtto be tried itrsquos porky and still a little crunchy and re-minds at least some of us that therersquos virtue to be had in

EARL ABELrsquoSA CLASSIC ENDURES
not overthinking a recipe The baked ldquoyamrdquo servedswaddled in aluminum foil is perhaps the epitome of thatapproach but if you add a pat of the butter that comeswith your yeasty dinner roll it will all go down nicely
If dishes such as calfrsquos liver and onions and Sundayrsquosroast turkey and dressing have endured at Earlrsquos over theyears there have been a few changes to mark the passingof time the addition of both an Akaushi beef and a bisonburger is one of them and itrsquos also hard to imagine thatEarl would have featured fish tacos or gyro wraps in hisday We did experiment with fried pickles as an appetizerand found them fine of type In any case this is as gooda time as any to admit that we really come for the pies
You will be happy to know again (if you donrsquot al-ready) that Earlrsquos pies remain the standard by which allclassics are judged Lofty and light the coconutmeringue never fails to pleasemdashunless itrsquos the lemonmeringue that gets the nod Oh sure therersquos black bottompie and even German chocolate cake to tempt and theyhave also probably been on the menu since 1933 Buttherersquos just something about meringuehellip

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

LITTLELANTERNSHINESSTONE COTTAGE IN ALAMO HEIGHTS IS TRANSFORMED FOR YOUNG FAMILYBy JOHN BLOODSWORTH | Photography By AL RENDON
Nested in a canopy of mature trees asmall stone cottage was re-imagined by archi-tect John Grable as a neighborhood beacondubbed ldquoThe Little Lanternrdquo Two new glassbookends at both ends of the stone block openthe living spaces to the outdoors At nighttheir glow illuminates the meandering streetflowing like a creek through this old park-like Alamo Heights enclave
Built in the 1930s by noted architect H CThorman the house held wonderful crafts-man qualities that appealed to the young cou-ple who bought it Their desire to maintain theintegrity of the structure was realized with thecontemporary addition that was needed for agrowing family
ldquoWe wanted to have a home where we

could raise childrenrdquo says the active mother of5-12-year-old twins The couple moved into thenew space just three months before their son anddaughter were born
Located near the Alamo Quarry the housewas constructed with limestone acquired fromthe quarry site To double the square footage butremain sensitive to the original 1400-square-foot stone box the glass room ldquobookendsrdquohouse a formal dining space and a master suiteThe master bedroom is built over an existingsubterranean garage to the rear of the property
To keep the scale of the expansion fromoverwhelming the original house or its neigh-bors the second story addition steps back fromthe front facade and retreats into the abundantlive oak and elm canopy The childrenrsquos bed-
rooms and a sun-filled playroom perch in thistreetop setting
ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
ldquoWhen they were younger a tricyclecourse ran throughout the houserdquo says momThis is a home meant for family
The proximity of the glass box playscapeto the street offers frequent encounters withneighbors walking their dogs or other youngcouples pushing children in strollers along thetree-shaded avenue The children wave topassersby while the familyrsquos pet pooch greetsfour-legged friends with equal zeal
From their refined sophistication pluscontemporary furnishings blended impecca-bly with treasured family pieces and an im-pressive collection of regional contemporaryart there is no doubt that these are also adultspaces Yet they are completely child friendlyIt is a harmonious habitat where family life ischerished and enjoyed

ldquoWe brought our children home to a treehouse and where there are now two bedsthere were two cribsrdquo the delighted mothersays ldquoI like it when you have friends overrdquoexclaimed her daughter as the twins ran to awindow overlooking the backyard and out-door dining terrace This has become thelookout where the children wave to guestsbeing entertained by the couple
The formal dining room has yet to fullymaterialize With soaring exposed-beam ceil-ings and floor-to-ceiling expanses of glassthe space became a playroom for the growingchildren A whimsical teepee rests at theready for creative campouts while a mini-trampoline slide set art easel train stationand cars offer indoor entertainment for the ad-venturesome duo and their friends
