 The Saturday evening lineup We kicked off our Saturday evening with good friends, good food and some good wine. A casual meal on the deck of salads, grilled steaks and chocolate lava cakes was topped off by Champagne (Lanson, Black Label, NV), T-Vine Grenache (2011), Howell Mountain Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon (2005) and Castelnau de Suduiraut (2003). After conflicting schedules, moves, and life getting in the way, we finally managed to get to have dinner with these friends. And it was good. Continue reading New Additions and Great Meals

 Any weekend that starts like this is going to be good. Ahhhhh, the glorious days of lounging in Key West, being totally relaxed with nothing to do. Alas, that was not this past weekend. We had plenty to keep us busy. The weekend kicked off with a feast of sushi at Origami. Yum, yum, yum. In addition, Babka got to play the part of doggie ambassador (more on that on her blog next week.) Continue reading Weekend Recap

 Ugh. I am going to go on record here and state the obvious: Moving sucks. The packing, the finding a new place to live, the packing, the headaches of selling and buying… it all is miserable. When people I have known for my entire life ask about my parents’ well being, they invariably ask if they still live in the same house. When I reply that they do, I am met with a look of surprise. My response? “They have too much stuff to move.” Continue reading Moving Sucks

 The latest restaurant from the folks that own the Hogfish Bar and Grill and the restaurant at Geiger Key Marina is Roostica, on Stock Island. Roostica feels like an Italian trattoria with it’s casual atmosphere, simple menu and good food. Continue reading Roostica, Key West

I am cursed with having a serious case of Foot in Mouth Disease. I have spoken with my doctor and he assures me that there is nothing he can do about it. I will just have to learn to moderate myself and deal with it. Thus far, I have been unsuccessful at moderating and this morning was no exception. Continue reading Foot In Mouth

As I head to Washington, DC today to visit family and celebrate at a friend’s wedding, Babka will be hanging out comfortably in her own plush bed, while having a three night play date with her friend Maggie. But she was not always on this path. Last August Babka was dumped off at Miami Dade Animal Service and was on death row. Continue reading This One is For The Dogs

 The great Greek salad I saw the construction and the sign for Mrs. Mac’s new building for what seemed like a really long time. After inquiring, I learned that the new location up the street is, in fact, a second location and they would not be moving or closing the original location. Continue reading Mrs. Mac’s, Key Largo: Second Location

 You can't ever go wrong with truffle fries. I had the great pleasure of meeting a friend I see far too infrequently for lunch last week. I wanted to go somewhere I could bring Babka, because (a) I really love the dog, (b) I knew my friend wouldn’t mind, and although she is not much of a dog person, kind of likes Babka, too and (c) I schlep Babka everywhere with me (see point a). So, I picked Yardhouse at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale. Continue reading Yardhouse, Gulfstream Park, Hallandale, FL

If you have been following this blog for a while, you know I have a dog, Babka. You also may know that I am completely obsessed with her and she goes nearly everywhere with me. I try to feed her only healthy and delicious food and treats. When I found out that some of the treats . . . → Read More: Introducing Babka Bars

 FKGuy enjoying a relaxing brunch We had tried 2¢ moments after they opened around New Years, when they were cash only and still getting a handle on things. I keep meaning to go back for dinner now that they accept credit cards (I don’t usually carry cash) but just haven’t gotten there yet. Instead we went for brunch yesterday. Oh my.
