I used to think Gwyneth Paltrow was pretty in a kind of ballerina way.  But I think she ruined it with her personality.  I never thought much of Bessette, even though she was considered by some* to be the be-all and end-all of beauty.  She struck me as the real-life version of that Seinfeld girlfriend who looks great in a certain light and awful 5 minutes later in another.

eta: Whoa.  When was the last time bnb and I were thinking the same thing? |  Paltrow was hot in Shakespeare in Love .  I don't know that I've considered her hot in much else.  Bessette Kennedy is definitely one who depends upon the kindness of photographers.

				Family Grounds Cafe
			 
 So, this place recently opened in the vicinity: http://www.familygroundscafe.com/ 
It is basically a cafe with an indoor play area for little children (tons of toys, toddler-sized playhouses, tables for coloring, etc.).  Music and other entertainment is often provided.  They charge $7.50 per child for 1.5 hours.  My daughter and I went there with a buddy and his son.  It was great.  We got to sit and enjoy coffee and a croissant/bagel, and the kids (26 and 20 months)  ran around and had a blast.  We occasionally had to get up and make sure no one was hurting anyone else, etc, but it was relatively relaxing.  On rainy days it is packed, and I bet it'll get even more crowded during winter.
 
I thought that all of this would be a great idea for an actual restaurant, but the buddy was concerned about having booze in the area (which I didn't think was a good point since Chucky Cheese has been doing it for years).
 
Thoughts?
 
I should probably post this on the Parents board.
