Tapas Lunch at Ceviche

Yesterday I had a long (and lovely) lunch meeting with Teresa Tapp at the Ceviche (at the old Tio Pepe's location in Clearwater).  The restaurant has a fantastic Spanish ambiance with a friendly and attentive staff!  Now I wish I took some photos of the inside of the restaurant (and our 6'8" waiter!) to share with you. Check out their website for more photos.

Here's what we shared... along with some really good wine:

ATUN ESTILO TARTARO
Sushi-grade tuna hand chopped with capers, onions, fresh parsley and sesame oil.


CEVICHE DE SALMON
Fresh salmon marinated in lemon, lime, cilantro, sweet onion and topped with caviar.


ESPARRAGOS
Fresh grilled asparagus with field greens and aioli.


The meal was fantastic!  I enjoyed all of it, but especially having Teresa all to myself for a few hours.  It was wonderful to catch up and be able to talk like real friends.  Thanks for another great lunch, Teresa!

Hop Tip from the bartender:  Wednesday night they have a free wine tasting where you can try 3 different whites and 3 reds, plus they buy your first round.  The wines change weekly.  (FYI - the wine list is extensive!!)  And if you're a female, bring 3 girlfriends with you to Ceviche and get a free cheese plate to share.  Awesome!

Au revoir!

Benefits of Face Brushing

You've heard me talk about Body Brushing and all the wonderful health and beauty benefits that come along with it, but what about Face Brushing? You can brush your face and neck and get the same type of benefits as body brushing delivers! Facial brushing removes dead skin and stimulates circulation , which firms and improves skin tone . Your skin will become softer and smoother ! It's like a mini facial massage every time you brush, a fabulous way to spoil yourself during your daily facial cleaning routine. In order to do the face brushing sequence you need a small natural-fiber bristle brush . The important thing to look for when selecting the appropriate face brush are natural plant fiber bristles. Do not use the type with plastic bristles because it will not have the same effect. I'm excited to announce that T-Tapp now sells  face brushes ! In addition to the Body Brushing Sequence,  Teresa Tapp created a special Face Brushing Sequence that has...

Amazing Eats at Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen

Last night I had the most fabulous meal with my sista at Pappadeaux in Atlanta. She's been keeping this place a secret from me! We get there around 8pm and find out that she knows the hostess from way back. (Our buzzer literally went off after about 5 minutes when there was over a 40 minute wait for a table. VIP!) The first thing that we ordered was the most delicious dip I have EVER put in my mouth, hands down! Lump Crab & Spinach Dip with crispy garlic cheese bread ...OMG. I could eat that by itself and call it a night. I saw a woman with this drink and had to order one for myself. It's called a Swamp Thing made from a mix of raspberry and melon liqueurs blended with frozen Hurricane & Margarita . Fantastic! Brain freeze though. I hate to admit that even though I'm a Florida girl, I've never had oysters before . She was shocked and insisted that we order some. Her favorites were the Oysters Baton Rouge - oysters on the half shell baked with a Parm...

Hiking at Kennesaw Mountain Battlefield

I got my outdoor fitness on today!   Went with the boys and pups to Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield and walked/hiked around the area (using T-Tapp techniques , of course).  I'm thinking we trekked about 3-5 miles.  The mountain terrain was a bit challenging and I really felt my legs working it!  The monument pictured below was built in 1914 and located at the top of the battlefield mountain.  I love going to places with history - and the area was truly beautiful! Here's a little history for ya: Kennesaw Mountain Battlefield is a 2,923 acre National Battlefield that preserves a Civil War battleground of the Atlanta Campaign. The battle was fought here from June 19, 1864 until July 2, 1864. Sherman's army consisted of 100,000 men, 254 guns and 35,000 horses. Johnston's army had 63,000 men and 187 guns. Over 67,000 soldiers were killed, wounded and captured during the Campaign. When we got home I stuffed my face with ate the leftovers from ...
