I have had limited success with the whole detox situation. My body functions much better with a little caffeine and wine in it. But, I’ve been good food wise, and I have cooked a lot. Fish and broccoli or grilled chicken over salad gets pretty boring after a while, so […]
The first time I saw Rocky Horror I was about 14, and it was with a youth group. We could spend hours discussing the inappropriateness of it all, but why? Throughout high school I went to more Rocky Horror midnight showings than I can count, and along the way picked […]
Good morning! Here at the virtual home of Florida Keys Girl, we are always trying to improve. Today, it is our web hosting. In order to have a better experience, I am upgrading the hosting of the site as well as the server and a few other boring things. It […]
