I miss Florida… but we’ve got frozen drinks & trivia 🌴🍹


Hey Reader,

Well… we are officially back up north. And let me just say — my soul is missing that warm Florida sunshine in a big way. The palm trees. The salty air. The ability to wear flip flops without regret. 😅

But… we’ve been soaking up time with family, getting some work done, and counting down the days until we head south again. Soon. Oh so very soon.

Even while juggling life up here, we still covered some really fun stuff last week:


🕯️ Did you catch my chat with Deejay Peak?
She’s the creative force behind Key West Candle and Bath Company, and her story is honestly so inspiring. From a broken candle during a move… to building a whole island-inspired brand? I love it.
👉 ✨ Click here to dive into her story (video + podcast all in one spot!)


🍹 Then we talked frozen drinks in Key West.
Not your basic piña colada lineup — I’m talking fun, unique, tropical-in-a-cup goodness. Did your favorite make my list? Or do I need to go back and “research” some more? 😉

🧠 Trivia Time!

Last week’s answer:
🏴‍☠️ The Pirate’s Well is located on Caroline Street — specifically at 410 Caroline, at Captain George Carey’s house.

And here’s a fun way to remember it:
If you’re sitting at Hank’s enjoying something delicious from Garbo’s, just look across the street… and there it is. Hidden island history in plain sight.


🎁 Stay tuned!
I’ll be doing the live drawing for this month’s Fun in Key West box on Monday (3/2) — someone’s about to get a happy little island surprise.

And since we’re rolling into a brand new month… that means a brand new box to win.

❓ This Week’s Trivia Question:

In what year did the Southernmost Buoy first appear?

Hit reply with your guess — that’s how you enter!


Thanks for hanging out with me, whether we’re in Florida or just dreaming about it. More sunshine, more stories, and hopefully warmer weather ahead.
