This is so funny - I was trying to describe the Christmas Tree Shop to someone yesterday!! It's one of those places that I could never get out of without a basketful of stuff I didn't need!!!

Definitely! Christmas Tree Shops. I miss them too. You could find just about anything you need there, and lots of stuff you don't need but just have to have!

Both those would be great.
We need more things the whole family can enjoy together.

The N. Raleigh/Wake Forest area needs better food in general. I spent 30 years in NYC and 5 in Savannah, GA. My wife and I have lived in Wake Forest for two years now, and while we have a very good Italian restaurant and a very good West Coast/Mexican place, there is almost nothing else.

Lots of burgers and crappy "Texas roadhouse" style places. Blegghh!

A Whole Foods would be a godsend (although I would quickly go broke). My wife and I always head to Ben's Kosher Deli on Long Island when we go back to NY, so I will say we need a kickass Jewish deli.

Mmmm, matzo ball soup!!

I would like to see more family activities. A waterpark would be great! Another cool thing I suggested before is an outdoor pool, food, entertainment place.

There is a Steak & Shake in Wake Forest - off Capital just past S. Main St. heading north (Wal-Mart shopping center).
