📍 Marked Safe from May

This entire year has been a whirlwind for us! The kids were each in different schools, scattered across separate corners of Miami, coming together to form what we lovingly called The Devil’s Triangle of Traffic. 🚗😵‍💫

I probably averaged four hours a day in the car and made my way through more audiobooks about high fae and sexy dragon riders than any reasonable adult should. 🐉📚

Then May decided to level things up with sacraments, birthdays, proms, graduations, and every possible celebration squeezed into a single month. ❤️🎈🎓✨

It felt like an obstacle course of parenting logistics, planning, cheering, coordinating, and celebrating. Love it all —even the madness.

Grateful for all of it, and I’ve never been happier to see summer arrive☀️ shout out to #heatedrivalry and #bieberfever for keeping me alive as well as our entire village who helped any time they could!

Now if anyone needs me, I’ll be on a couch somewhere trying to figure out what happened on Summer House✌🏼

Bookstagram did not just fill my shelves in 2025…it inspired my kitchen, my travels, and my everyday joy. From discovering new authors to falling in love with chopping veggies while an audiobook plays 🎧, this community elevated even the simplest moments. Better salads, beautiful stories, and more reading time everywhere I went. Forever grateful for this corner of the internet. 📚🤍

Swipe ⬅️ to meet some of my favorites and see just how easy it is to fall in love with them too.

There’s a new glow coming from the old Fiola space, and it’s not just the flattering lighting. @DanielsMiami has arrived, bringing a slicker, sexier energy to Coral Gables with the kind of dining room buzz and behind-the-bar swagger you can feel from the moment you walk in. The vision? Bold flavors, vibrant presentation, and no fear of a little excess… especially if it comes with caviar.

Yes, caviar is everywhere here, but it’s far from the only reason to swoon. The Chips and Dips turn the childhood snack on its head with caramelized onion, Kaluga caviar, and just enough crunch to make it addictive. The Basil Caesar Salad is a visual riot—think Jackson Pollock with romaine and parmesan—while the Wagyu & Pearls piles Arrowhead Beef Tartare on brioche toast with black garlic aioli and, naturally, more caviar. Seafood gets the same luxe treatment. The Florida Blue Crab Cake comes crowned with Kaluga caviar and Beacon Fisheries rock shrimp, Meyer lemon, and crème fraîche.

Foie lovers, prepare yourselves: the Foie Gras Crème Brûlée is easily one of the best foie dishes Miami has seen in a while. Hudson Valley foie meets toasted coconut, cashews, and mango for a dish that feels as South Florida as a sunset boat ride.

Whether you’re a Prime NY Strip loyalist, a Cowboy Ribeye devotee, or the type who can’t resist the indulgence of a Texas Wagyu Prime Rib with fresh horseradish, au jus, and béarnaise, Daniel’s delivers. The sides are no afterthought—think Maine Lobster Mac & Cheese with cave-aged Gruyère, Twice Baked Potato with sour cream, chives, and yes, more caviar, plus Corn Pudding with crème fraîche.

Start strong with Daniel’s Martini, built on your choice of Grey Goose vodka or Bombay Sapphire gin, Florida sea salt brined olives, lemon peel, and a “pour as much as you want” vessel of house dirty olive juice.

Daniel’s isn’t just a steakhouse—it’s a celebration of indulgence, of big nights out, of Miami dining at its most confident. Just don’t come here expecting restraint. Leave moderation at the door.

Cooking for a healthier heart! We had an incredible time with Chefs Mika Leon (@mikabites) & Brad Delgado (@chefbrad), in partnership with Baptist Health (@baptisthealthsf), making heart-smart versions of our favorite dishes — Hearts of Palm Ceviche & Turkey Picadillo.Small swaps can make a big difference! #ad

Daily tips for a healthier heart:

🥩 Choose lean proteins
🧂 Cut back on sodium & sugar
🥗 Eat more fiber-rich veggies
🏃‍♂️ Stay active, sleep well & stay hydrated
📵 Spend more time with loved ones and less on screens

This February, take the next step in knowing your heart! ❤️ A quick, non-invasive heart scan can detect early signs of heart disease. For a limited time, get a CT calcium scoring for just $49 with Baptist Health (if you meet the criteria) at https://baptisthealth.net/heartscan. Talk to your doctor to see if it’s right for you!

Thank you to The Real Food Academy (@realfoodacademy) and Sedano's (@sedanossupermarket) for making this experience unforgettable!
