Pinecrest Farmer’s Market Is Full of Color
The Pinecrest Farmer’s Market at Pinecrest Gardens has been open every Sunday since December and I finally got by this weekend. It is open every Sunday from 9-2 p.m. through April, and I plan on being a regular. In addition to the fresh fruit and vegetables that are grown locally, there are food vendors with everything from conch to tropical ice cream, herb and vegetable plants for the home gardener, spices, and green products to clean your home or make it more energy efficient. My favorite part was the burst of color all around me. I know where I will be shopping for my produce for the next several months.
Race Car Driving Course – An Unforgettable Gift
If someone you know is a wannabe race car driver, a great holiday gift is to give them a one or two day racing school experience. Offered at the Palm Beach International Raceway or Homestead Miami Speedway, these courses are sure to get the adrenaline going! If the course wets your appetite, consider joining the Palm Beach Driving Club to keep your race car/course fan entertained all year.

I know Art Basel isn’t quite over, but if you want to see local art, join in the Coconut Grove Art Stroll tomorrow night from 7-11 pm.
Art Basel Miami Kicks Off This Week
Art Basel Miami starts this week from December 3-6. With Andy Warhol’s “200 One Dollar Bills” painting fetching over $43 million earlier this month, many artists and galleries are hoping that the art market has also hit its bottom and that this year’s event will prove more lucrative than last year’s. In addition to the exhibitions and events connected to Art Basel, there will be many sideline exhibits and activities, many of them free.
The Best Sub Shop
If you have been prepping for Thanksgiving and can’t stand the idea of having to make dinner, check out the subs at The Best Sub Shop. The tiny little store front shop on 77 Ave. is usually packed, but service is quick, prices are great and their subs really are amazing.
Things To Do in Tampa, FL
I am up in Wesley Chapel near Tampa for the Derek Pieper Lacrosse Tournament this weekend and wishing I had more time to explore!

Most of the day, I will be at the tournament, but at night I plan to explore the city!
