For breakfast today I ventured out and found an adorable cafe� it turned out to be a completely kosher Jewish French cafe. Everyone in it was speaking French and I was in heaven!! I had a leisurely breakfast of a cafe au lait and Challah French toast. Lather, rinse, repeat. I lazed on the beach and by the pool and on the balcony. My olive Italian skin gets quite dark with this amount of sun and my hair is returning to a rather blonde state. Churning through books like mad. I wandered into the Bal Harbour Shops, ummm, can we say, if there was ever a place to represent everything that isn't me, it would be this place. I could care less about a blouse on sale for $2500.00 (when's the last time you could say you saved $1500 on a blouse purchase?), I could care less about the latest night life fashion trends (is nude the new black?). It was horrifying. Really, just transport me back to the islands of the Tortugas away from that side of humanity.
