People in Key West have a love-hate relationship with cruise ships. Those that love the mega-liners coming in for the day generally own a shop on Duval Street or a restaurant close by. Those that hate it are the people that like to walk down the street without encountering an […]

Last month, I wrote about Key Lime Pie from both Blond Giraffe and Kermit‘s. As you may recall, I am in the Kermit’s-is-clearly-better camp. Read the original post, and what others had to say about it here. I did leave off one very popular place in that review, the Key […]
I am a little obsessed with shopping right now. No, I don’t own several pairs of Gucci sunglasses, nor do I own 30 pairs of jeans (I currently have two). Rather, I am obsessed with shopping for a house. I think that if I am patient enough, which is pretty […]
This, and other pearls of wisdom, like “don’t cut your toenails while drunk”, were interspersed with the music last night at the Green Parrot. Part of the Key West Songwriters Festival going on this weekend, Robert Earl Keen performed to a full house, and a large crowd gathered outside on […]

What started as two friends coming to visit turned into a full-on wine weekend. I had planned on having 2 people stay with us, and then 6-8 others in a hotel for our wine dinner Saturday. As it turned out, we did two dinners at exceptional restaurants with great wines […]
Key West has just about every type of food you could want, except Indian. Although I would love for someone to open an Indian restaurant, I’m not quite sure how grouper vindaloo would go over here. But, I digress. This weekend, I went to Goldman’s Deli in the Winn Dixie […]
Wahoo’s at the Whale Harbor in Islamorada was the lunch spot yesterday. After picking friends up at the Fort Lauderdale airport, we headed south for the beautiful drive to Key West. Mrs Mac’s was a little early in the drive and Keys Fisheries a little too late, as we were […]
