The Better Chancery Practice Blog

Now that college football season is almost over (I know, some of you will say that  my team’s season never really started!), I am going to be posting about cooking and putting up some of my favorite recipes that I have accumulated over the years.

Tomorrow I will post a great, simple recipe inspired by a dish I enjoyed at Galatoire’s, and I’ll try to keep up most weekends. If you have a recipe or something about cooking you’d like to share, send it to me and I’ll post it.

It’s the ultimate compliment for any elected official to be unopposed for re-election, and I certainly do take the fact that no attorney in this district qualified to run against me as the ultimate compliment.

Thanks to all of you for your support.

There will be a retirement reception honoring Chancellor Sebe Dale, Jr., 10^th Chancery Court District, on Friday, November 12 at the Marion County Chancery Court Annex, 250 Broad Street in Columbia, from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.  All members of the bar are invited and encouraged to attend.
