I take a break from my normal tales of eating (and emergency pants, not that the two are related in any way), to discuss The Next Food Network Star, specifically last night’s finale. (I’m going to tell you who wins, so if you have it recorded and haven’t seen it, […]

When my friends started to marry, nearly twenty years ago, the discussion of name changing came up frequently. In fact, as the wedding of two very close friends approached, both of whom have nice, easy to pronounce, one sometimes-mistaken-for-royalty names, we had the discussion frequently.

This past weekend we had friends visit Key West for the first time, other than on a cruise ship. They wanted to see and do everything, and I was exhausted just thinking about it all. We started with the highlights, and naturally, there was a lot of eating going on.
