Where I was from, there were two little mall-lets out there. El Cerrito Plaza had money, was a bit…read morepricey, and there was a lot of care put into it. Then there was Mervyn's Shopping Center that had stores and such, was a bit more run down and didn't have the sheen of the Plaza. One was a destination spot and the other? Now it's a Condo compound. This reminds me of the center that became a condo compound. I feel that unless you just have to go into a store, there's no reason to come there and hang. It had that look of benign neglect, where the stores are up and functional, but the empty spaces and overall feel there don't inspired a willingness to stop by. This could be because it looks like something out of the 60's or 70's. But I feel like updating the building would just be putting a band-aid over an infected, sepsis causing wound. A covering, but not a cure. This place's age is showing and it needs a major update.

Total Nostalgic. I remember back in the day we'd stop here every time we went to Grandma's it was…read morethe halfway point in our drive. I loved riding the hobby horses. I don't recall taking the train ride, but for only $5 it's a must do for kiddos these days. Cheaper than a trip to Disneyland. What I really recall is the giant gingerbread people they used to have in their bakery. My parents would never get me one, but every time I saw them the drool was on. They also had quick breads like zucchini bread and the such. I'm a sucker for zucchini breads and other quick breads. I went a few years back ready to get my ginger bread man and some quick bread and to my dismay they don't have any of that anymore. Being an adult now I was so ready to buy all those things my parents wouldn't buy me. Being an adult has those perks. Now the Nut Tree is a place made up of restaurants and some key stone stores such as Ultra and Old Navy. If you hunt around you can find Sees. I really wanted to go to Sees today, but we ran out of time to make the trek over there. We did have time to explore Kirkland. I've never been to a Kirkland before and it turned out to be a real fun store. They had a great deal on diffusers. 1/5 the price of the ones I saw in Fort Bragg. I found one that I LOVED the scent to in Fort Bragg, but couldn't rationalize spending the money on it. I almost got one of the cheaper ones at Kirkland, but resisted as I really didn't need to spend the money today. I need to save up for the Berry Festival in Woodland this weekend and I bought too much stuff in Fort Bragg this weekend. We did go to Fenton's and shared a cone of black cherry and loved every bite the last time we were at the Nut Tree. It's hard to resist a cone from Fenton's when you stop at the Nut Tree. They are located to the right of the big Nut Tree sign and next to the bathrooms that are on the Left. We walk by it all the time as we go to the bathroom for our potty stop. Just thinking about it I'm drooling. We also stopped buy Old Navy. They always have tons of cute tees for $10, which is a good deal in my book for new shits. They had a ton for cute skirts and dresses, but they weren't a style I'd wear so we walked out empty handed. That was our stop in the Nut Tree this time. It's always a solid rest break and potty stop on our way.

Pretty nice to have a cleaned up farmers market-ish brick and mortar. It's a little more expensive than your average supermarket and that may be because most things are your buzzwords: "organic" "vegan". Woo hoo. The Restoration Hardware and Williams-Sonoma outlets are fun once in a while. Don't need furniture as often as I'm wanting fruits and veggies though, so I'm here for Sprouts more often than not. Parking is plentiful and access to this shopping center is simple, right off the freeway. Just be careful to not get on 505 going back to Davis. It's a bit of a detour to get back.

But hey, I consider this a good recovery! I'm glad I found myself up in here again. Here's hoping the memory never get wiped out again.
