I love getting feedback from readers (even when I’m told I have no idea what I am talking about.) I have received a few emails recently that I’d like to share with you. If you have a question or comment that you want answered in a future mailbag, please email […]
Coco Asian Bistro is nestled comfortably in the Harbor Shops off of 17th Street in Fort Lauderdale. An unassuming storefront, the decor inside is quite soothing with dark woods and fabrics. If you go, be sure to request one of the booths, which despite not having so much legroom, are […]
I need your help. Last year I was nominated – and WON! – the Sun-Sentinel’s Best of Blogs Award for the Travel and Tourism Category. As it turns out, I have been nominated again in the Travel/Tourism category, so please help me go two for two and win again this […]

I could also title this Why I Like Underwear. I am not a curmudgeon, a prude or a stick in the mud. I like to have fun as much as anybody. Really, I write a travel blog – that means I travel. A lot. For fun. That being said, let […]
The Florida Keys Girl has been a little busy shuttling back and forth from the mainland to Key West to the mainland and back to Key West. That was just the last two days. Stay tuned next week for more adventures. (This week does not qualify as an “adventure” so […]
