As for the flowers, you'll have to ask an expert on that one!

The market runs every Tuesday from May 19 through September 29, from 5:00-8:00 p.m. I especially love coming here for the fresh fruits and veggies, locally handmade goods, and freshly baked bread. I'm also a huge fan of local honey and swear by its health benefits! Kingdom Sunrise Acres has a booth here, and I can honestly tell when I go without their honey because my allergies start acting up. I also love browsing all the cute shops and vendor booths. They make the entire experience feel like more than just a farmers market--it's a fun little Tuesday-night outing! There's plenty to enjoy beyond the market, too. Kindred on the Creek has an awesome happy hour and the cutest outdoor seating right along the Greenbelt. I enjoyed their Viognier, with its delicate aromas of honeysuckle and pear, along with their happy-hour charcuterie board--the perfect pairing for relaxing outside! The live music and bands give the whole area such a fun, lively energy, and there are outdoor fountains for the kids to run through. I also spotted a pizza place that I'd love to try while sitting outside at one of the picnic tables. And apparently, one of the nearby bars has $1 Jell-O shots! LOL--those might have to make it onto my Farm to Fork itinerary next time!

I don't know why I didn't visit Indian Creek Plaza last year, but I just went last night, and I…read morehave to tell you it really lifted my spirits & put me in the holiday mood! I had no idea how many lights they put up, and hadn't seen their new ice skating rink either. The downtown is just brimming with holiday cheer, colorful lights, and ice skating, even music. I guess I didn't fully understand the sheer volume of Christmas lights they put up, but it's enough that you have to walk all the way around and across the river to see it all! It's incredible, and they have some really cool "features" that I wasn't expecting to see. Such fun! It was raining when we went, but the combination of the people, places, lights, excitement, and the magic of all almost made the rain delightful. :) The whole experience brought me so much joy. I've been so stressed lately with all the holiday "stuff" that needs to be done that I forgot what the season was about. My visit to Indian Creek Plaza really brought things into focus for me...not just because of the lights, but because the lights serve as a reminder of the joy, the people, love, and time together is what really makes the holidays so special. Go visit. Take a friend, or your family, or both. Make an evening of it. Grab some coffee or a slice of pizza together, and explore the lights, the creek, and just enjoy each other's company.

Then I have to go and pick out the "best of the worst". So needless to say I was hesitant to go through this again with my entire family. But, after hearing Brittney's story about why she is so passionate about family pictures I knew that I had to get them done (I don't know if she tells everyone her story so I won't go into the details...but it's quite moving). From the start to finish it was great. They start with giving you a questionnaire about what YOU want from the pictures, colors, location, why you're getting them, if you want pets or other family members, ect...very detailed. Then you pick the location, they come to you...no studios for us yippy!! She even helped my wife pick out the right colors for her. We went out to the location and she said, "let's take some pictures" and we just kinda stood around and played, I really didn't think she could've possible gotten any good pictures from what we were doing...but she did!! She just kind of followed us around for a while and eased us into different backgrounds...if was easy, I even found myself enjoying the process...who would've thought? When Jay came by to present the photos all of us were amazed, amazed at the quality, amazed at everything that they could do with the process, amazed at the pricing, and amazed at the service that they provide. I even had them do my professional pictures for my business. Every once in a while you come across someone that gives their heart and soul into what they do and consistently gives more than they are paid...this is one of those.

Stayed here for a 3 day 2 night stay over Labor Day weekend with my husband, in a single king bed…read moreroom. Cost was $580 to book, however we booked with 47,000 Chase points through the Chase portal. Pros: - They usually offer a free airport shuttle, but because it wasn't running, they actually reimbursed the cost of the uber we took from the airport to the hotel! - GREAT location: we didn't come with a rental car and didn't need one - it was walking distance or to a bunch of food places and bars, including Pie Hole, Yoi Tomo AYCE sushi, Western Proper, Boise Fry company, the art museum, the Basque street, you name it. Pretty much prime downtown location close to everything, and only like a less than 15 min ride to the airport - Ask for free tickets to the Boise Art Museum! $6 value each haha - GREAT sun-blocking curtains if you want to sleep in - Amazing selection of TV channels - Pretty comfortable bed - The shower had the best water pressure I've experienced at a hotel so far - We didn't utilize this benefit but they have complimentary bikes to borrow - All the staff were very professional. Cons: - Thankfully I didn't pay the full price for this hotel - but based on the amenities, it feels like it should have been in the $400 range for a 2 night stay, not $500. I definitely would not have stayed here if I had to pay the full $580. - NO complimentary breakfast options, not even like a grab and go donut kind of thing. There is a convenient cafe downstairs but you do have to pay. - Our fridge seemed like it didn't have a good seal, and wasn't keeping our takeout leftovers very cold. - No microwave in room, kind of inconvenient if you want to heat up leftovers. - Kind of markets itself as a one of a kind luxury boutique hotel, but I would say it was more average and just gets the job done (not a bad thing, but a little on the pricier side). Overall, 10/10 would stay here again if booked with points and didn't have a rental car. It does give you the convenience of being close to literally everything if you're a fan of walking. Things that could make it better would be breakfast, better room amenities. Overall a solid 4 stars.

I asked several times to speak with a manager, expecting at the very least some concern or a simple apology. Instead, there was no apparent interest in the situation and not even a note of apology.

Two words: NEVER AGAIN.
