Anytime I am planning a wedding shower, baby shower, or birthday party, Brookside Party Warehouse is the place to shop. I am assisting a friend with planning a birthday party for her young child, I told her about Brookside Party Warehouse and now she is sold. The staff are wonderful and are always very helpful. I love their clearance aisle. They reduce their invitations, plates, cups, and napkins to unbelievable prices. They also have great Halloween costumes for children as well as adults.

I recently met my parents at Carrabba's Italian Grill for dinner the other evening. We were seated immediately and the waiter was fast in responding to the table to obtain our drink order. I ordered a pasta dish with grilled chicken over a bed of fettuccine Alfredo. This meal did not come with a salad, therefore, when I ordered a side salad it was extra. The salad had a very good Parmesan dressing that was very flavorful. Their bread was delicious. It is fresh from the oven and the dipping sauce consists of olive oil and some seasonings. The service is impeccable.

Last Year I discovered Faulkner's Pumpkin Farm in Lee's Summit, Missouri. It costs $5 per person and those under 2 years old are free. They have a petting zoo, hayrides, and a corn maze. This past weekend was Grandparent Appreciation Weekend and the grandparents were only $4 and they had different activities. They also have games on the weekends, not just for the children but also adults. Adults could participate in a contest where you carried a small pumpkin between your knees to the finish line, trying to win a carving pumpkin for your child. Kids can play on tractors, play scarecroquet, and do a bean bag toss. You can have lunch at the farm for a small fee. You can either order your hot dogs already roasted or you can roast your own over an open fire as well as make smore's. I can't wait to go again next year.

Recently my family had a family reunion held in Republic, Missouri. Some of the family members booked four rooms at this hotel. This hotel location is new and I was very impressed with the accommodations. It is a beautiful hotel. The staff were very nice and assisted the customers in regard to any issues. When you enter the hotel, they have a huge fireplace with couches and chairs. Since we were all staying in different rooms, this gave us a chance to sit and visit outside of the rooms. They also had a computer that you could check your email or surf the. The indoor pool and hot tub were so great. The pool was the perfect size and was so relaxing. The continental breakfast was one of the best I have ever experienced. All of the food was so fresh and the area where you dined was very nice. I would highly recommend Americinn for your next stay.

My family recently had a family reunion in Republic, Missouri and Maggie Mae's Tea Room catered the meal. The meal consisted of barbecued beef and ham. The side dishes were a wonderful potato casserole, green beans, salad, and corn. The meal also included a dinner roll. All of the desserts were homemade and were absolutely wonderful. The staff did a great job setting up the meal, they were prompt and very friendly. If you have a special event that you need to be catered, I would highly recommend this business.

My family recently had a family reunion in Republic, Missouri. The morning after the reunion some of the family met at Scramblers for breakfast. There were about 20 of us, the staff had no problems seating us immediately. We were seated in one of the banquet rooms and the service was wonderful. I ordered the biscuits and gravy, which were very good. I was impressed with the children's menu, meals for children under the age of 2 only costs $.99 and older children's meals were very inexpensive. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered and the food was served very quickly.

The other day I decided to go to the Dollar Tree in Grandview, Missouri attempting to locate party supplies for my son's upcoming birthday. Everything in the store is $1.00 and they have numerous items for parties (plates, napkins, silverware, and table cloths). I also found some cute plastic food for my niece for Christmas (KFC, Dairy Queen, Chuck E Cheese).
It looks high quality, but I only spent $1.00. The store was very disorganized and very dirty. It was difficult to get through the aisles due to all of the clutter.

My car had over $50,000 miles on it so it was definitely time for new front brakes. Pro Brake and Muffler is just within a few blocks of my house, therefore, I decided to have the work done at this location. I arrived at about 9:00 on a Saturday morning, I had no appointment, and they looked at my car within 20 minutes. They then gave me an estimate and my car was done in about an hour. The service was great and their estimate was right on target. Their hours are very convenient. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

My son usually does horrible when I go to get his pictures taken, however, recently I decided to try Portrait Innovations. It was a great experience and I will never take him anywhere else. When we entered the store, they had lots of toys for the children which allowed my son to get acquainted with his surroundings. There is one person taking the pictures and another worker entertaining the child. The women would act like she was throwing the ball at my son and he would smile so big. They take about 70 pictures. You then sit down at a huge computer screen and decide what you want. We were able to get four different poses and not have to pay too much. There were no hidden costs. I would highly recommend Portrait Innovations to anyone. You also receive your pictures within about 20 minutes.

My mom and I decided to try a new restaurant for lunch the other day and decided on BD's Mongolian BBQ. The service was excellent, you were seated immediately and everything was explained to the customers. You select your meat and put it in a bowl, it is raw (chicken, beef, shrimp, crab, etc), then you add the raw vegetables (mushrooms, baby corn, carrots, red potatoes, etc), then they have recipe cards and you mix your sauce. You then take your bowl and sauce to the cooks and they cook it on a huge wok. The waitress then brings your flour tortillas and rice. You can also get soup and salad. I did not care for the sauce and thought the recipe called for too much pepper. It was nice to try once, but don't believe I will be returning to the restaurant.
