Appropriately so! We have Tropical Storm Nicole heading our way. One day there isn’t much happening in the Atlantic or Caribbean and the next, there’s a storm barreling straight for you. It’s also appropriate because turns out I am taking down my paintings at Books and Books today and the day I put them up…

It’s the last week of my exhibition at Books and Books in Coral Gables. The month really went by so quickly I can’t believe it. I’m not sure when I will be taking the paintings down, it will more than likely be Wednesday or Thursday afternoon…so if you are in Miami and have not had…

When I was a freshman at SMU we wore black pants and oxford shirts with pearls to football games…Playboy ranked us #3 among party schools in the country…about 60% of all students were in the Greek system…and we played pathetic (but super fun) football at the Cotton Bowl. Today, the students look like they’ve walked…

So as most of you know I have a day job…but its more than a day job, I really and truly love what I do. I’ve been working in museums for about 12 years now, and I have been fortunate enough to have worked in Museums of Art, Science, Children’s and most recently History ….

Happy Monday! What better way to start the work week than with a smiling gator? This smiling gator is up at Books and Books in Coral Gables with 17 other works. It’s been a slow but fast month…the 18 pieces will come down next week, so if you are in Miami and have not had…

Stiltsville out on Biscayne Bay is one of Miami’s quirkiest treasures. No one can really agree when the first house was built in the shallows of Biscayne Bay…some say 1922 others say it was in the early 1930’s. There are seven houses left today. I’ve been to Stiltsville, but have never been IN a house….

Here is your slice of pie for the day… The house is coming along…and I am huge with 8 weeks to go!

I decided to take the weekend off and focus on the house a bit, relaxing and I also attended a baby shower for lil‘ ole me. …last night I was inspired and posted three pictures of the new house on our family blog, The Florida Room . There is so much yet to be done…

Today’s piece from “Slice of Miami Pie” is this gem. This is another one that REALLY makes people stumble. Can you figure it out? …in other news…the new house is coming along slowly but surely. There is still painting and organizing to be done. The nursery is a LONG way off…and the only way we…
