Thelma Gladstone is a reviewer of small business establishments in Vista City. Her column appears weekly every Monday.

Thistle Do Nicely – Ophelia’s shop is an experience in itself. The lady proprietor and her staff specialize in the secret messages of the flowers and assist their customers in plying those messages to communicate what words are inadequate to convey. Whether looking for a simple red rose or for a festooned arrangement, Thistle Do Nicely can assist with your floral needs with a nod and a wink.

Blooming Lotus – The Blooming Lotus is a full-service spa, complete with massage, aromatherapy, steam rooms, skin renewal techniques, and more – all in the quest to refresh and reclaim your youthful inner beauty. Enjoy fine cuisine made to-order while sipping the most delicate blends of fruit juices. Make a day of it, enjoying luxury pampering, and come out blooming!

Pricilla’s – Pricilla’s is a neighborhood coffee shop from the outside, unassuming and even quaint, but it boasts a knowledgeable staff and highly personable atmosphere. You will be greeted as though you have made a habit of this location all your life, and made to feel at home amid the somewhat rustic surroundings. Pricilla’s also boasts its own unique blends, and its staff will do its best to match you according to your taste profile.

Brad’s Diner – While the name of the diner may sound like that of a more questionable and lower-class establishment, rest assured that you will not regret one particular item on the menu: the milkshake. Brad’s Diner serves the most decadent of milkshakes, and their creamy richness will take you back to the glee that you felt as a child, and their flavor combinations will delight your palette.

Pizza Planet – Pizza Planet is primarily an affair for children, featuring the conventional flash and dazzle of lights, sounds, and games centered around the traditional menu of pizza and soft drinks. Tickets may be won from the wide variety of games and may in turn be exchanged for prizes. Children will love it and clamor to be taken weekly; adults will dread it and quickly change the subject.


((ooc: There would be no ic connection between the businesses that Thelma (who is somewhat snooty) has reviewed; I just wanted to review some rescuer businesses as places that people could go to scene! Usagi works at Thistle Do Nicely, Lapis at Blooming Lotus, J at Pricilla’s, Minako at Brad’s Diner, and Frisk at Pizza Planet -- contact their players for more info. If I missed anyone, my apologies – feel free to comment, and if I get enough, I’m glad to do another one of these.))
