When I moved to Boca Raton about four years ago from Miami, I was hesitant.  Boca Raton has a reputation for being boring and old. So for the sake of being with my love and being a bit over city life, I welcomed the change.  I’d spent some time in Boca so I kind of knew what I was getting myself into. Yes, Boca is quiet and lacks big city culture but it is also safe...

October’s Wynwood Art Walk was not my most memorable.  Getting there late, valet parking was full as were the streets. It’s really mad on the streets during art walk and if you’re not prepared well it’s just annoying. Why does everything good turn bad eventually? Put simply, when the general populous finds out there is something good happening the droves of people...

I’m always looking to try new, healthy and easy recipes. I usually find them on the internet or at grocery stores. I collect them actually and sometimes it takes me a while to actually act on making the recipe. Today I tried a recipe for a smoothie I got at Whole Foods. The ingredients are all rather healthy and contain no milk products. The recipe yielded a nutty,...

There’s nothing like a weekend where you get to do a little of everything: spend time with friends and family, have some one on one time with your huny and maybe listen to some good music or see some amazing art. That’s what really makes a good weekend for me, just getting to do a little of everything mixed in with some rest makes it perfect. This past weekend was...

Have you ever been ready to work out but you miss your class at the gym, it’s too hot outside to ride your bike or the gym at your community kind of sucks. Well did you know that Xfinity cable TV offers free on demand workout videos? I know it sounds like one may not get a good workout out of such videos or its just boring to work out at home.  These are all...

Sometimes it’s really hard to find something fun to do with kids while at home. Especially as we come to the end of summer since we have exhausted most every place and activity. So creativity is key!  Today we actually did something really fun, upon my daughter’s suggestion we had an at home spa day. Ours was more like a spa moment since we only spent a couple...

I’d visited New York City several times before but never with child, so I had done the fancy dinners, night clubs and shopping yet never bothered to see any of the tourist sights.  Since I was traveling with my nine year old I eagerly Googled in order to compile a list of “things to do” with kids in NYC, especially in the evenings. Sites like Time Out NY for...

I missed June’s art walk so I guess I may have been a little desperate for some Miami art culture.  Luckily July’s art walk came along in a nick of time yet if I remember correctly, in some past summers art walk took a break?  Anyhow it’s good that it now runs year round and hasn’t lost its flair yet. A lot goes on in the compact area that is Wywood so...

Bird Road Art Walk occurs in an unsuspecting area in the middle of Miami in an industrial warehouse district off of SW 40th St.  Art usually thrives in these types of places and according to their website the district has been in the works since the 80’s when artists started moving in.  One still come across your typical cafeterias (pronounced in Spanish) and car...
