About a home that was sold out from under the heir, and sold for such a ridiculous price, compared…read moreto what it cost to build in 1904. My husband was the heir to that house, his sisters and their husbands blackmailed his mother and stole the house and sold it and the contents of which were his, at auction. YEAH this house has many many stories, You want a few, I can tell you more than you'd ever want to know.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Greystone Manor for the first time as my best friend had…read moreher bridal shower here. This place is not your typical venue- it is literally an old southern style, two story home. From what I was told, the owners rent it out for special events such as parties, showers, etc. It was the perfect place for my friend's bridal shower because her theme was "southern chic" and the attire was hats and heels. I felt like we were in the 1970's era the whole time, which was kind of cool! The outside of the home is very big with lots of yard space for someone who may be looking to do an outside event. Really great scenery for picture taking! The inside is filled with antiques and is fully furnished, which could be a negative depending on the amount of people you are expecting. My friend had about 20-25 guests at her shower, which was held in the one of the dining rooms and we had just enough room. Had there been more people, it would have been too crowded. Unless you speak with the owners about clearing some of the furniture out, you will not have much space to work with unless you use multiple rooms. We were able to utilize the kitchen to prepare the food that was to be served at the shower. I was shocked to see they still had a gas stove- in 2013. Old school, right? I recommend this place if you're planning an intimate event such as a shower, party, or something of that nature that causes for a vintage theme. If that is the case, Greystone Manor is your place. If you're expecting it to be very modern, then you may want to look elsewhere because it is so not that, and I'm not stating this in a negative way. I highly suggest touring the home before having an event here to ensure this venue will best accomodate your event and meet your expectations.

The food and the service is awesome. It is hidden by the Walmart in Maumelle. You will not be…read moredisappointed.

Judging by the name and logo, I thought it was a poke or ramen bowl place. WRONG! Thanks to the…read moreAT&T employee next door, I found they have burgers, catfish, chicken wings and BBQ, with all the sides. I tried the catfish with okra and baked beans. The catfish filets were meaty, fried and seasoned perfectly. The baked beans were surprisingly good, with bits of beef and a great flavor. It was served with a piece of bread, pickles and onion, and it hit the spot! Pair all that with friendly, knowledgeable staff, and it is a home run. STRONGLY RECOMMEND!

Today was my first day going to a painting class. It was a lot of fun. Adam was a great teacher and…read morehelped us fix certain things we didn't like. For example a few us did not like our tree branches because it was too thick. He told us why our branches were thick and then told us the technique to thin our branches out. I know a few of us were OCD about our painting and Adam had a lot of patience with us. He also took a blank canvas and let the class practice brush strokes, leaves, birds, etc before painting on our own canvas because many were scared to mess up their paintings. The only negative about the experience was the restaurant that was hosting. Saddle Creek Woodfired Grill is a great location however, the lighting is bad and as it darker it got outside, the harder it was to see in the restaurant. Overall I enjoyed the whole experience and definitely want to do it again.
