Pinecrest, Florida – Banyan Bowl at Pinecrest Gardens
There was a meeting tonight to discuss ideas about potential improvements and uses of the Banyan Bowl at Pinecrest Gardens. Several arts groups, schools and residents have shown a significant interest in having the Village of Pinecrest upgrade and improve the Banyan Bowl so that it can be used for a variety of performances. The Village has hired consultants to do a feasibility study. What do you think? What types of performances would get you to attend?

Peacocks In Pinecrest
I went on a run the other day, and within a half mile of my house I saw two people riding horses, a large iguana munching on leaves on the side of the road, and a beautiful peacock. I didn’t have my camera during my run, but on my way into work I had to stop for a peacock crossing the road. Luckily, I had my camera this time!
Best Cupcakes Ever!
The Coral Gables/South Miami area is so lucky to have two great cupcake places to choose from. Many of you have probably already heard of or tried Misha’s Cupcakes. The red velvet cupcakes are amazing and her cakes made out of individual mini-cupcakes are works of art as well as being convenient for parties…no plates or wasted cake.
A couple of blocks away on Sunset Drive is Buttercream Cupcakes and Coffee. Although they don’t make mini-cupcake cakes and their minis have to be special ordered, they have a larger variety of flavors. Their chocolate peanut butter cupcakes are amazing. Try both of these neighborhood places and let us know which one is your favorite.

In case you are planning to party the entire New Year’s weekend, you may want to consider taking in The Coconut Grove Art Stroll on January 2, 2010 from 7-11 p.m. It promises to be fun but not too high key if you are still recovering from the 31st.
Miami Office Space – Huge Inventories Are Around The Corner
Just when we start making a dent in the huge inventories of residential condo units in downtown Miami, we are about to be flooded by commercial office space. Several projects are coming on line next year, resulting in approximately 2 million square feet of office space. Under good economic circumstances, the normal absorption rate of office space is around 250,000 square feet. Needless to say, tenants are going to have a favorable advantage for negotiating leases for a very long time.
