Ordering Flowers From Brentwood TN Florists

Written by Meredith on March 29, 2007 | Comments (0)

I was so surprised when a Nashville florist left this rose bouquet on my doorstep!

I'm a flower snob. I usually make my own bouquets from the garden or wholesale flower shops in the Nashville area.

If you have to send flowers to Brentwood, TN, I recommend calling a local florist directly. You'll have more reassurance of overall style and quality.

You can also give specific instructions, like "lose the FTD mug, the glitter-sprayed carnations and please, oh, please--no leather leaf fern!"

Melinda Doolittle Sings 'Heaven Knows'

American Idol's adult contemporary episode whittles the contestants down to the Top 10. Pop idol Gwen Stefani shelled out some gentle--but warranted--criticism to Haley Scarnato and Chris Sligh.

So when Melinda Doolittle rehearsed "Heaven Knows" by Donna Summers, guess what Gwen Stefani had to say:

"She blew me away. Amazing performance, beautiful and kind of mindblowing."

"I would say good luck, but I don't think she's going to need it."

Melinda Doolittle's Top 11 Idol Song

Written by Meredith on March 20, 2007 | Comments (0)

Brentwood's Melinda Doolittle was a stunning finale to American Idol's Top 11 episode.

I'll admit, I was a little worried when I saw the British Invasion theme--but Melinda's soulful touch to "As Long As He Needs Me" made all the difference.

As did her fresh new look...
