Digital Grafitti Alys Beach 2023
✨🌈 Digital Graffiti Alys Beach is always magic, but this year’s art was some of our favorite so far! Lots of ocean waves and flowers. We have a lot of video footage to share soon, but love these stills that capture some of the best art and moments. Thank you always to Alys Beach for having us cover this outstanding event! (I also got to wear a handmade dress by my Cuban grandmother which was made in the ‘80s - just like me!)

Ticheli's Restaurant Review | Seacrest Beach, 30A FL
🍕 Y’all. There is no shortage of delicious food on 30A. Before we moved here our family and friends would say “You’re gonna miss this New Orleans food!” Fast forward .. nah. We’ve eaten some of the best food here from the best chefs (many from New Orleans), who source our food from our local farmers. My husband is eating the most seafood he ever has in his life after not eating any in New Orleans. 😳 Tonight we indulged during our staycation & absolutely loved Ticheli's “Ma

Red Bar Restaurant Review | Grayton Beach, 30A FL
Our first time back at Red Bar in Grayton Beach since their reopening! (In case you didn't know, a fire burnt it down and they had to rebuild.) It’s a crazy feeling. It’s like we never left. It feels like the same special place .. nothing else like it .. but refreshed (with bigger bathrooms)! Every square inch of memorabilia, the live music, the delicious food, the love - it’s all there welcoming you back. What an incredible job. Vlog is on YouTube so you know what to expec

Wine Bar Restaurant Review | Watercolor 30A, FL
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wine Bar in Watercolor was the very first restaurant on 30A we went to. I remember bringing bottles of wine and decadent cheese back to our Watercolor condo years ago. Now it is one of our favorite spots for a casual lunch or dinner alfresco. We love their soups, sandwiches, salads and pizza! Wine Bar also has one of the best Happy Hours – daily special of a carafe for the price of a large glass (11am – 6pm)! Specials! Custom Charcuterie Board Chicken Pesto Pizza
