Last night was the kick off of the Key West Food and Wine Festival, and there is no better place to do that than on the sand at the Southernmost Hotel on the Beach. Tables with wine and food are set up as guests mingle and the sun sets.

I know you have been waiting for these. As usual, it was a crazy time in Key West. Some of these are not for the faint of heart. You have been warned. Enjoy.
I know you can’t wait until next week, so today I am bringing back some of the favorite photos of the last few years. In addition, if you haven’t yet planned out your whole week, here are a few choices for what to do. There is no shortage of drinking, […]
Rooftop Cafe is in a lovely location on Front Street. The outdoor deck and seating above the street is really lovely. I hadn’t been there in about ten years, and I think it will be another ten before I am back. Why? So many reasons…
I had a hankering for the pain perdu at 2¢ for several weeks now, and for various reasons was not able to get there for brunch until last week. We were going to sit in the lovely outside garden, but the weather was bad, so we opted to sit at […]

I have walked by New York Pasta Garden a bunch of times. It is next to Origami in Duval Square, between Simonton and Duval Streets, yet somehow I had not eaten there. They are on the Woman’s Club Card, so since we had a buy-one-get-one-free, I thought we’d give it […]
