Berry Interesting

Is this cool or what? Vinegar does it again. Immediately dump your fresh berries in a solution of water and 10% white or apple vinegar. Leave in for a couple minutes then rinse off with clean water or leave on if you don’t smell the vinegar – to your taste. Put the berries in the refrigerator immediately after letting them drain well. Put a double paper towel under the berries and don’t enclose. Berries should […]

The Whole Truth & Nothing But The Truth

Bob Kerstein’s book, “Key West on the Edge: Inventing the Conch Republic (Florida History and Culture)” has finally been released. Bob started writing it about ten years ago and it was originally going to be about the politics of Key West. One thing led to the next and BAM! Ten years have blown by and now it is a book and not just about our political scene. Mark Howell did a review this past Sunday […]

Webcam Fiasco

As you might have noticed the Eden House has new cams for the pool and spa. They are HD and MOST of my guests and I love them. Now for the bad news. They are not adjustable for wider angle viewing and they take a poop load more bandwidth. So you say, I should have known. I wish I had, I probably would have stayed with the old cams. After a couple months of playing […]

Play That Funky Music

RJ and Steve did it again this February. These guys are a couple song writin’ fools. They wrote two songs last year that appears on RJ’s newly released ‘dreams that rhyme’ and they wrote a couple more songs this year. This is a very good CD and it has my personal stamp of approval. The songs run the gambit: from county, to ballads and then the toe tappers. You can understand the words and they […]

So you say you are organic

So you say you are organic If you eat organic then this smart phone app is for you – Fooducate is the name…quality of food is the game. (Bill Lechnar I don’t want one damn word out of that potty mouth of yours. Just shut your pie hole.) With this app you can scan a bar code or type in a particular product and find out what you have been eating. This is a very […]

We Are What We Eat (and then some)

I am speechless and that takes some doing. Please keep the chatter down in the back row. Micky D’s must be the national food in the ‘Bizarro World’. If you have time to read this article, please do so. If this shit is going on with the McNuggets you can bet it is in everything that they are selling. The Beatles were way ahead of their time. Long before big business starting putting tertiary butylhydroquinone […]

Pajama Program

I almost cried when I read this article in “The Week”. Here is the article in it’s entirety.     Genevieve Piturro was volunteering as a reader at a children’s shelter in Harlem when she noticed that many of the young children were forced to sleep in their clothes at night for lack of pajamas. in response, she launched the Pajama Program (pajamaprogram.org), which has given away more than 1 million pajamas and 620,000 bedtime-story […]

iPhone App is here

Once upon a time in a far, far away land there lived a witch, though she likes to be called a wizard. In this land anything the witch/wizard touched turned to gold. In our case, it was an Eden House iphone/ipad app. You say, cut the shit and get to the point. Okay, Elizabeth has designed an Eden House app and we all lived happily ever after. Yes, it is a freebie (link) and we […]

Smoke, Smoke, Smoke that Cigarette

      Well buckaroos it is THAT time. As of January 1, 2012, the Eden House is non smoking. The only place on the property to take that ever soothing draw on that Virginia Slim menthol will be the elevated sundeck over the parking lot. Sorry smokers but “those guys” are tired of smelling your smoke. I must confess, I am one of “those guys.” I hope this is not too much of an […]

Adios Amigo

I’m sad to announce that one of the good/crazy ones left us this past Friday. Bob “only stupid questions deserve an answer” Germany left us and is now kicking butt either up or down there. I’m sure he is kicking back with a beer, smoking a cigarette and talking bout the buying a houseboat or a sailboat for a dollar and a six pack. That man could talk some shit. We are going to miss […]

THAT AIN’T FRESH

This is shocking information! Ads tell us that it is pure and natural, and almost all of us are buying it. More than 620 million gallons of orange juice are sold per year in the United States, according to market research from Nielsen. Alissa Hamilton’s book “Squeezed: What You Don’t Know About Orange Juice,” that is planned to come out in May from Yale University Press, reveals all the truth about orange juice. Consumers have […]
