#29 - Miami! Miami!



A trip to Miami Beach has a great mix of culture (found in Miami) and great food, hotels, nightlife and beaches (found in Miami Beach). In addition the weather in the 80s in December and lush tropical flora make this a great trip I would recommend to anyone.

Plus you can get anywhere by walking and public transit!

#28 - Banyan Trees



Coral Gables in Miami, FL has the most striking collection on Banyan trees lining many streets. These trees really come alive with all their character. Breathtaking!

#27 - Cuban Food (in Little Havana)



I love Cuban food. I was especially fortunate to be able to enjoy it in the "Little Havana" district in Miami, FL. This is where many Cuban's settled when they fled Cuba in 1960s and 70s.

I grilled chicken and artichokes the other day for my hunny. It's one of my favorite ways to show love - with a warm healthy meal.

#25 - Attention to Fine Details



Like these nicely folded napkins at a Cambodia restaurant in the city! (I was away for awhile - but it feels good to be back appreciating the little joys in life.

#24 - The Rose Cafe



I love to chill in cafes. Take in the atmosphere, people watch, read, write, research and grab a iced soy latte and maybe a morning roll. Mmm. A great cafe if ever in LA is the Rose Cafe (4749 Fountain Ave). The have amazing orange tea and orange muffins, plus a fab gift shop!
