The talk all around Cool Springs a few weeks ago was that the Krispy Kreme was closed for remodeling.
How dare they close the doors to their loyal customers?! (I seriously had this talk with 3 people at work one day.)
Well, have you been to check out the Krispy Kreme now that it is re-opened?...
I knew when it was being built that the Brentwood Waffle House was going to be a little different from the other local Waffle House restaurants.
The building is typical "Brentwood" red brick and quite attractive. The customers are a lot less, um, colorful than other Waffle Houses that I frequented in the past.
Of course, I haven't visited this one at midnight either. Things may change depending on the time of day. But all in all, the Brentwood Waffle House really is a nice, family-friendly place to eat.
Just a hop, skip, and a jump away from Brentwood, on the west side, is a super-fun indoor play place named The Monkey's Treehouse.
It's only about 7 miles west, located in Bellevue, and well worth the trip.
In case you haven't already noticed, the Brentwood Library is under construction.
The expansion will increase the size of the library by 13,000 sq. ft.
It will include a new media room, study rooms, conference room, and a larger children's area, and should be completed by October 2009.
Spring has sprung in Brentwood and allergy season is upon us.
As much as I love springtime, with all of the beautiful green grass and budding flowers, I have terrible allergies that start with the palms of my hands itching even before any of the normal signs of spring can be seen.
A friend once told me that I was to allergy season what the groundhog is to spring. Funny, but pretty true.
I'm not a doctor, so take this list with a grain of salt, but I thought I'd pass along some of the home remedies that seem to help me in the peak of allergy season...
One of Brentwood’s “best kept secret” parks is Tower Park.
It is across Concord Road from the River Park trailhead, and it's not nearly as busy as River Park and Crockett Park.
I spent an afternoon at Tower Park recently with my daughter and our bicycles. She is just learning the rules of riding on a greenway with so many other people so I was very happy to have a less crowded park to try out for that.
The latest cool thing to open in Brentwood is the Connection Center at Brentwood Baptist Church.
The Connection Center is the 75,000 square foot facility that was built onto the church as a part of the church's latest expansion project. It includes a café, auditorium, bookstore, and basketball courts to name a few things.
I've had a lot of people ask me why the church needs to be *even bigger*.
