Sharing My Life One Bite at a Time
Let me start off by saying that I don’t like amusement parks. I think they’re cheesy and overpriced, and I’d rather spend my time and money elsewhere. However, I’m a big fan of the Harry Potter books. At first, I didn’t think Harry Potter was for me. Wizards and magic? Totally not my thing. But, [...]

I am stuffed. I may never eat again. My culinary tour of Orlando was amazing in so many ways, but I’m so glad that it’s over! My final day in Orlando started with blog friends! Meghann, Katy, and Katy joined me for breakfast at Harvest in the Hilton where I was staying. I knew that [...]

My second day in Orlando was a busy one. It started with breakfast a Bull & Bear, followed by lunch at Pho 88, chocolate-making at Farris and Foster’s, beer-drinkin’ at the Orlando Brewing Company, and it concluded with a lovely dinner at Le Coq Au Vin. Le Coq Au Vin offers a fresh twist on [...]

After lunch at Pho 88, our group headed to a really neat chocolate shop in picturesque Baldwin Park. Farris and Foster’s Famous Chocolate Factory is a chocoholic’s heaven! But, you don’t just get to eat the chocolate– you get to make it too! We got to get our hands dirty making our very own chocolates [...]

On Friday, our group visited the Orlando Brewing Company, which is Florida’s only certified organic brewery. All of the beer is brewed right on the premises, so it is as fresh as can be. There are more than a dozen beers on draft in their Tap Room and even more in bottles. Free tours of [...]

After a big breakfast at Bull & Bear, we headed to Pho 88 in the Vimi district for lunch. Pho 88 is a family-owned restaurant that offers a huge selection of authentic Vietnamese dishes. By just browsing the menu, I knew we were in for a treat. I just had to make some room in [...]

When it comes to running, this New England gal is not used to the Florida humidity. I thought that I was going to melt on my 6 mile run this morning. Somehow, I survived, and now I’m enjoying a delicious iced coffee in my hotel suite. One of the best parts about my job (besides [...]

Even after enjoying a huge meal at La Luce, I woke up with a grumbling stomach the next morning. Luckily, my first meal of the day was a hearty one. I enjoyed a wonderful steak and eggs breakfast at Bull & Bear in the Waldorf Astoria. The Waldorf Astoria was gorgeous inside! I absolutely loved the [...]

I spent the entire day eating. No joke, I spent more time eating than not eating today. Our group literally left one eating establishment to go to the next to eat more. It was crazy. It was totally awesome, but crazy. I’ve never eaten so much in one day. It’s a good thing I like [...]
