So here is a great tip- if you are planning on going out of town sign up for Groupon in the city you are going to visit. Simple right? I was getting ready to go visit New York City with my honey- I have lived there before but my Mr. Chad had never been to …

My last few posts were all about our tour of the factory at Whetstone Chocolates of St. Augustine and lunch at Casa Maya, but there was a lot more to see and do in this adorable historic town. Just down the street from the chocolate factory we came across this enormous and beautiful Spanish-style building……… …
(edited: shortly after this post was published, Casa Maya moved into a larger location. All photos are from the original spot.) My last post we took a tour of the Whetstone Chocolates factory. Well, after all that sampling of sweets we wanted to eat something a little more substantial so Chad consulted Urbanspoon to find …
Mr. Beet and I spent the weekend up in St. Augustine for another one of our 5K races- but I think the highlight of the trip for both of us was touring the factory of Whetstone Chocolates of St. Augustine. The Whetstone business started as a small ice cream store in 1967 in the Old …

Universal Orlando has now decided to change the show up in accordance with all the new changes happening at Universal Orlando- including a new parade and new attractions. I was …
Well…I love me a good bargain. I subscribe to Groupon, Living Social and ODeals (a local site in Orlando). We don’t often buy anything but occasionally we find a deal too good to pass up. On Living Social they were offering half-off a two-hour bicycle rental for two near our house. I have been begging …
So after watching the movie Forks Over Knives I have started doing some research on circulatory diseases and prevention. There is so much information out there it boggles the mind. Check out these three charts I found and notice how consistent they are with one another- There are many studies that have proven the benefits …
Forks Over Knives is a horror movie. Not your typical horror movie- there aren’t any monsters or mass-murderers jumping out from the dark- but there is horrifying information in it. As a wanna-be-vegetarian/vegan, this is a movie I have wanted to see since it came out last year. The release was small, only playing in certain cities. Now …
