I don’t know what’s been going on lately, but I feel there’s a cosmic shift in the universe. Things have been changing and developing at lightening speed. When I saw the Astro Twins headline “Why are so many changes happening?” it was confirmed for me, in a planet sense. Apparently Saturn has entered Pisces, disturbingContinue reading “Survey Says…”

Oyster Stew for Two
If you happen to find yourself with an excess of fresh oysters, as we did recently, you might want to consider making this easy Oyster Stew. We’d had the oysters raw on the half-shell and grilled with garlic butter and cheese, but I still had a couple dozen left, so what to do? I turnedContinue reading “Oyster Stew for Two”
Foodie in Miami Visits NYC
So, as mentioned in my previous post, the anniversary of our first date was February 7th. When Zeke proposed to me on Christmas Day in 2003, he invited me to New York on this date to go pick out the diamond for my engagement ring. The weather was freezing and I remember walking home fromContinue reading “Foodie in Miami Visits NYC”
Celebration Creme Brulee
So Zeke and my first date was February 7th, 2003. It was supposed to be a “one date and one date only” deal, since I was dating someone else, but I forgot my sweater in his car and he brought it over the following Monday. We started talking and made future plans for that weekend.Continue reading “Celebration Creme Brulee”
Superbowl Corn Dip
Zeke and I used to go to a Horseshoe Party around Thanksgiving each year. There were teams assembled, there was lots of beer (and other drinks) consumed and everybody brought a dish to share. Most of all, it was a good excuse to see old friends you didn’t get to see the rest of theContinue reading “Superbowl Corn Dip”
Pizza Party!
The front page of the New York Times Food section last week was “Hot from the freezer Aisle”, all about how Artisan pizzerias are striving to produce store-bought pies that taste delicious. These aren’t your typical Tombstone, DiGiorno or Red Baron pizzas, but pizzas that are wood-fired and made with Italian and organic ingredients. SalesContinue reading “Pizza Party!”
Easy Miso Soup
This is a super easy recipe I cut out of the paper which was titled “Late-Night Dish” Instant Soup; it ties into the Lunar Chinese New Year theme, but luckily, no rabbits were harmed in its making. It’s quicker that Ramen noodles out of the package and hits the spot when you want something warmContinue reading “Easy Miso Soup”
Old Dog, New Tricks?
The new year is fully upon us. Can you believe it’s almost February? I’m fully embracing 2023, drinking my green smoothies, doing yoga, taking long walks, eating out at new restaurants and socializing like a little butterfly! Fun, fun, fun. Also, I’ve discovered my “sweet spot” re: drinking alcohol. Two drinks = feeling good thatContinue reading “Old Dog, New Tricks?”
Speakeasies, Secret Bars and Rooftops- Oh my! Food Trends 2023
So, a new year is upon us which means it’s time for Foodie in Miami to look into her crystal ball and decide what new Food Trends are happening in 2023. Without further ado… I got an Ooni pizza oven for Christmas, as did my niece’s husband Tug, but it’s not just us! Ooni’s revenueContinue reading “Speakeasies, Secret Bars and Rooftops- Oh my!

New Year, New You?
That’s what the magazine covers always say in January. Time to reinvent yourself- eat healthy, exercise, get organized. Organize your home, your business, your finances. It all sounds good to me, but I really didn’t make any New Year’s Resolutions this year. I do try to eat healthy and exercise on a normal basis, butContinue reading “New Year, New You?”
