My Samsung phone deletes texts before my very eyes. Has anyone else experienced this?

Its our favorite time of year! Tonight is opening night of @stlshakesfest! Free Shakespeare in the Park EVERY night except Monday through 6/22! Another great collaboration between Steve's and The Fountain! Can you guess this year's show by our menu item names?

We are thrilled to share some GOOD NEWS! The disaster crews working on Delmar have done nothing short of performing miracles. We have electricity & gas at our Delmar sites, so we're getting closer to reopening both spots! We're aiming for 6/17 for Steve's 6/18 for The Fountain on Delmar! (1/4)

Missouri REALTORSยฎ is offering $250,000 to Missourians impacted by the May 2025 tornadoes. Relief assistance is available to qualified applicants towards one of the following, limited to a maximum of $1,000 per household. www.stlrealtors.com/pages/stormr...

NEED FOR #STL TORNADO: The Academy Sherman neighborhood association is feeding people to the tune of about $1,000 a day. They are looking for food trucks to help them out who might charge a reduced price to help offset the costs. If you're up for it, DM me. #STLTornado #STLWx

Making progress towards a reopen on Delmar! Exciting news today. Grateful for the insanely amazing workers.

Very grateful for our continued partnership with St. Louis Shakespeare Festival. Couldn't have better timing - gives us a place to put displaced employees. Really looking forward to this season and Hamlet!

Does anyone have a paper copy of the Post-Dispatch I can steal from yesterday? An article about our team was on the cover. I was too tired to go out and get it.

Spread the word: All Red Cross shelters for tornado victims allow pets.

Disasters like these leave behind physical destruction and deep emotional wounds. If youโ€™re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or in crisis, please know that help is available. You are not alone.

Apparently my eye bags were a topic of the family chat. I got a call from my Dad telling me to slow down. I honestly love a good dad speech. He's the BEST... and I'm lucky to have him. ๐Ÿซถ

URGENT NEED: 24-40' LADDERSโ€ผ๏ธIt's been almost a week &MANY citizens have had no help protecting their homes from the elements. Their houses are 2-story & getting tarps on the roofs w/out a ladder is impossible, leaving their belongings open to the weather. They've got the people just not the tools.

I've been here before. 14 years ago today, in fact... open.substack.com/pub/dannieic...

We've been blessed to be neighbors with Dallas Holland in the Delmar Maker District. When you imagine someone who is the heart & soul of a neighborhood, she is that! She has MULTIPLE businesses that were lost on Friday. Please donate to support her staff: www.gofundme.com/f/tornado-re...

I'm seeing a lot of criticism about the handling of recent tornado damage, and I wanted to offer some perspective. Back in May 2011, I served as the Public Information Officer for the disaster response in Joplin (and I have the PTSD to prove it). It was horrific. (1/5) #stlwx

Lots of people have asked how/where/when to donate. Tomorrow we are handing out hot food, nonperishable food and personal supplies at Steve's on Delmar at noon. If you have some to donate, bring it by AT 10:00 am. If you want to help, DM. #stl

Spread The Word: We have partnered with disaster relief Church of Christ to pass out non-perishable food items Wednesday at noon at our Steve's Hot Dogs on Delmar and Fountain on Delmar locations. #stlwx #stl

Friends - We are among the luckiest in that our buildings are in tact (but all systems were ripped out - gas electric internet HVAC). We will be back but it will take time because so many have needs. If you can, stop by harbor freight, load up on tarps & head out. Rain is coming. People need help.

We need a Shop-Vac or five and some ice at Steve's on Delmar if anyone wants to drop some off.

We will be cooking up hot dogs and scooping ice cream before our food spoils at Steve's on Delmar. If you need food, please come by.

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ˜“๐Ÿ’”

Our Steve's Hot Dogs Delmar & Fountain on Delmar locations are closed for the foreseeable future. We are among the lucky ones. We are so grateful that our employees are safe, our hearts are broken to see this neighborhood we've fallen in love with just leveled to the studs. Pray for Delmar.

Heading to Delmar Maker District being told at least one of our restaurants is gone. #stlwx
