people watching


i'm at this cool place with my friend Sarah and our kids...
tot spot cafe... amazing idea....every town needs one of these places...

Monitored Play Area is stocked with top quality toys and hosted activities,
while moms... and dads can hang out around outside the play area drinking coffee, reading magazines, surfing the net (blogging) or just enjoying a moment where someone else is playing with your kids.

the people watching is great... and the conversations to be overheard are even better...
overheard... Microsoft dad talking with another mom...

dad - i got a new car (motions to new BMW outside the window)
mom - nice
dad - yeah... i wanted a Jetta but i was told that was a girl car
me - screaming in my head... yeah right...you really wanted a Jetta but had to SETTLE for a BMW...if only i had your problems :)

Boy, that's rough..a Jetta or a BMW! Such a tough choice!

Kristen said...

Yes yes yes!!!! We totally need one of those cafe's!! That looks awesome, and pretty sure you might see us there once a week! :)

Oh yeah, and we don't have those "BMW" problems either! ;)

Madison would be a better town with a place like this. Frankly, I'm surprised there isn't one already!

Oh my golly, what fun it would be to listen in!

Awesome business idea. I think a place like that would be really cool around here...

Ashley said...

I have been meaning to go there but haven't yet! That does look awesome though, I'll have to venture over there soon!

Thanks for stopping by (and commenting!) on my BATW day!

And double thanks for saying my husband is hot :) I don't think I will tell him though, he struts enough as it is. Ha!

Looks like you were witness to a single dad's pick-up line gone wrong. I'd break out laughing.

We do have one of those, here we call it McDonalds Playland :)

What an amazing place! I wish there was a location in my area. I wish I had to settle for a BMW!

THIS is EXACTLY what I miss about the bay area (I have no idea if that's where you are) ... the cafe, not the beemers. Ugh... but still not enough to go back. Not yet.

Mandy said...

we dont have anyplace cool like that here .... BUT I am sure IF somehwere like that opened up it would promptly close ... anyway .. that "problem" is like my husband overhearing a co-worker complain b/c his biggest problem in life was what lake to put his boat on :)
