Foodie in Miami emerges from the crumbs.

I’m Foodie in Miami, formerly on Wix, now on Word Press.

I would say I’m a phoenix rising from the ashes, but that’s cliche and crumbs works better for a food writer/blogger. True to form, I have some pretzel crumbs toasting in the oven for a New York Times cookie recipe claiming to be “almost too good to share”; I am planning on bringing it to my Pinecrest Garden Club field trip tomorrow to share with other members. Mostly because I want to try the recipe, but don’t trust myself with a pan full of delicious pretzel shortbread cookies.

I love food in all forms and am the former Miami Dining Examiner. I held that post for three years, writing restaurant reviews and reporting on food related news. Foodie in Miami continues that theme, but expands it with personal essays and recipes from my life. I’m also going to profile local chefs, food figures and groups.

I’m the mother to three adult children, stepmother to three daughters and Gigi to one beloved grandson, Wyatt. I love spending time in the Keys and researching best Happy Hours in the Keys (research has been going on for three years.) I am still in search of the perfect Margarita in the Keys.

I will be bringing you reviews about Miami food institutions, hole-in-the-wall foodie finds and the latest hot spots, as well as restaurant news. My garden is full of tropical fruits and vegetables and I will be sharing photos of that, as we go through the seasons, as well as ways to use up the bounty.

I’m very excited to be re-launching Foodie in Miami and hope you will join me in my journey!
