Welcome

I had a demanding career back in the day and traveled a lot so needless to say, I would do about anything to avoid cooking. Ironically enough, I really enjoy cooking and especially baking.

Anyway, since my husband and I dined out several times a week and well, we still do, people always wanted my advice on where to eat, what to have, what is the best new hot spot and they wanted details, details, details. I live in a vacation spot so I would also be asked for recommendations on where to take out of town guests and by price range, no less. So this blog is a way for my friends, family and anyone who is interested to read about my latest dining or drinking experiences, mostly in and around south Florida. They might even find a recipe or two on those occasions I actually stay home. Good eating!

Books

No, not cookbooks (though I love them too) but fun novels that incorporate a lot of detail about food or drink within the pages. These are just a few of my favorite books that have wonderfully descriptive scenes about food. And might inspire you to want to cook or bake something fantastic.

Five Quarters of the Orange
Blackberry Wine
Chocolat
Bread Alone
The Baker's Apprentice
Hotel Pastis
The Vintage Caper
