Brunch, roosters & a slightly naughty cocktail 😏🌴


Hey Reader,

We covered a lot this week… like a little bit of everything Key West (and maybe a little mischief too 😄).

Let’s jump in…


🍳 First up… BRUNCH

I updated one of my most popular posts — Best Brunch in Key West.

👉 🥂 Click here to see who made the list

Now be honest… did your favorite spot make it?
If not — hit reply and tell me what I need to add. I’m always up for more “research.” 😉


🏝️ Thinking About Living in the Keys?

We also talked about the cheapest places to live in the Florida Keys (and yes… “cheap” is relative down there 😅).

🍹 A Little Naughty…

Okay… I went back and updated a post that made me laugh all over again.

👉 💗 The Pink Panty Dropper recipe is here

I mean… the name alone.
But seriously — have you ever tried one of these?


🐓 Let’s Talk Roosters

Then we dove into one of Key West’s most famous (and loudest) residents…

👉 🐓 Watch why there are SO many roosters here
👉 📖 Or read the full story here

They’re not just wandering around for fun — there’s actually a pretty wild history behind them.


🌴 Planning a Trip?

If you’re heading to Key West (or dreaming about it), I just released something fun:

👉 📚 Check out my ebook: 25 Must-Do Things in Key West

It’s packed with can’t-miss spots, hidden gems, and all the “don’t skip this!” moments.

But I want your thoughts…
Did I miss anything? Would you add something? Let me know!


🛍️ One More Fun Thing…

I also just created some magnetic bookmarks with a fun Key West vibe 🌴📖

👉 🧲 Take a peek at the Etsy shop here

Perfect for your next beach read… or book club pick 😉

🧠 Trivia Time!

Last week’s question took us to one of the most iconic (and lively) spots in Key West…

If you’ve ever wandered down Duval Street and followed the sound of live music (and maybe a few people singing along who probably shouldn’t be 😄), you’ve likely ended up at Hog’s Breath Saloon.

The question was: What’s their famous tagline?

And the answer…
“Hog’s Breath is better than no breath at all!” 🐖🍻

It’s one of those classic Key West sayings that just sticks with you — equal parts funny, slightly ridiculous, and completely perfect for the island vibe.


❓ This Week’s Trivia Question:

What four streets in Key West are named after U.S. Presidents?

Hit reply with your answer to get entered into this month’s Fun in Key West drawing 🎁


Alright… that’s a wrap for this week.
Brunch, cocktails, roosters, and a little Key West chaos — just how we like it.

Cheers,

☀️🐓
