After a couple of overly-stressful weeks, we are finally back in Key West this weekend, and not a minute too soon. It is the middle of high season here and there is a lot going on. Next week brings the Key West Food and Wine Festival (more on that on […]
The movers have come and gone. The house is sold. I no longer have keys to the house I lived in for the past thirteen years. During that time we had dinner parties, holidays, parties, and more guests than I could possibly count. It is a little strange not going […]
Next Monday, January 14th, while FKGuy is hanging out with the movers getting all of our stuff out of the house, the 3 Loud Women will be filming live at IKEA in Sunrise. Join us for either the morning or afternoon to get a behind the scenes glimpse at our […]
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, […]

My last post left off with the tales of wonderful lunches and snacks by the pool, but I did not yet recap the amazing dinners onboard the Quest. The Quest has four different dinner venues: The Restaurant, which is the main dining room, The Colonnade, which most evenings becomes a […]
