It is 10 AM on Saturday morning. Our house guest is getting ready to leave, but we are all going to go out for breakfast first. I know it seems absurd, but somehow I thought that going to Blue Heaven would be a good idea. Perhaps we would get lucky […]

If you like hot sauce, playing really mean jokes on your friends back home or just some fun little gifts, you must go to Peppers next time you are in Key West. I live on the island 3 days a week and go there more than is probably normal. After […]
You know by now I am foodie, I am a wine geek and I am obsessed with all things Key West. I am not, however, a fancy car person, an expensive watch person or an expensive toy person. Well, except for my new phone – an HTC Hero, but that […]
Going out on a boat is really one of the great joys of being in the Florida Keys. Sadly for me, I don’t own a boat, so either I need to (a) go on some sort of party boat, (b) charter a boat or (c) find a friend with a […]

It had been years since I last visited Mangia Mangia on Southard Street. Why it had been so long, I have no idea. Mangia Mangia has one of the best restaurant wine lists around, and most likely the best in Key West (although I think a little more hands-on research […]
Fantasy Fest seems to inspire all kinds – truly creative costumes, amazing body painting and, for some people, nudity for the sake of nudity. The parade is a huge array of floats with thousands of spectators. All in all, a good time. Here you will find some photos of the […]
