Painting old Florida is a passion for Ormond Beach-based artist Barbara Perrotti. Her impressionistic style shows a strong sense of aesthetics. She has been featured prominently in both public and private collections. Perrotti’s work appears in the Museum of Arts and Sciences and Halifax Hospital, to name a few. Perrotti delights in experimenting with diverse colors, shapes and textures, but most of all she enjoys working quickly and spontaneously. She is a past recipient of a Professional Artist Development Grant from Volusia County. Her related activities include teaching weekly classes and workshops as well as judging and jurying art shows. She serves on the Board of Directors for the Volusia County Cultural Alliance and is listed in Who’s Who in American Art. Her work can be seen in a number of galleries in Central Florida. She is a member of Landscape Artists International and International Plein Air Painters. Far and Near Horizons: World Tour of Contemporary Landscape Artists, features several of her works.

Did you know

that man’s best friend is welcomed on beaches in St. Johns, Volusia and Flagler Counties?

It’s the perfect way to spend quality time with your pet - a day at the beach! The beaches of Volusia, Flagler and St. Johns Counties provide an ideal venue. Both Smyrna Dunes and Lighthouse Point Parks in Volusia County are ‘pet-friendly’. In Flagler County, the area just north of Gamble Rogers State Park and 13th Street is set aside to bring along man’s best friend and in St. Johns County, pets are permitted on any county maintained beach and that includes horses! Be sure to bring doggie bags and water. While some parks provide bags to pick up after your pet, others do not. Be a good pet owner and don’t leave a mess for others. Know that most beaches require your pet to be on a leash at all times and make sure the section of beach you visit is designated, ‘pet-friendly’. Failure to do so could result in stiff fines.

Flip-flops have been around for six thousand years... Floridians are known for their own special style. They took the necessity of having to dress for hot, humid weather and ran with it. Florida’s "resort casual" has become the fashion of choice. Resort casual style is all about ease! It’s characterized by sundresses, tunics, capris, khakis, chinos, tropical prints,bright colors, sheer fabrics, caftans, boat shoes, and flip flops. Speaking of flip-flops, did you ever wonder how they became all the rage? Flip-flops have been around for six thousand years and were first depicted on Egyptian murals around 4000 BC. They began appearing in America in the 1950s when soldiers brought back Japanese zori (similar to flip-flops) as souvenirs. Since then, the designs have changed flip-flops have become a pervasive part of Florida beach style, and you’ll even find them on some high fashion runways! by Georgia Brown

“Unique Wine Tasting Like You’ve Never Experienced”

“A Shopping Experience Like No Other”

Their wine experts will help you make your selections.

Wine & Food Pairing

Part of the fun in wine tasting is deciding what you find is delicious. Everyone has a different set of taste buds, so drink the wines you like with the food you like. Instead of red with meat, white with fish, think about balancing flavors. For example, pair delicately flavored foods with light-bodied wines. A lightly flavored fish calls for a crisp, light white wine. Deeper flavored salmon calls for a flavorful, buttery white wine. Bold, spicy foods require a full-bodied wine that’s slightly sweet and full of flavor. Seasoned dishes like pasta and savory meats are balanced with a rich, robust red wine.

Welcome to Palm Coast and the

Flagler Beaches. Imagine finding a secret place where you

could truly lay back and relax; where the worries of the day just drifted away. There is such a place. Locals refer to it as the quiet side of Florida. Sandwiched between bustling Daytona Beach and historic St. Augustine, the area known as Palm Coast and the Flagler Beaches is Florida’s best kept secret. Cliché, but true. The seaside village of Flagler Beach is the epitome of laid back. It was recently named one of America’s Coolest Small Towns by Budget Travel and it’s easy to see why. You won’t find high-rise, chain hotels here. Instead, there are colorful cottages, quaint bed and breakfast inns “Washington Oaks” Artist: Linda Holmes

st. augustine dining

In St. Augustine, Anastasia Island or the Beaches, you will never have a problem finding a place to dine, but you might find choosing where problematic. You see, the area is a food lover’s paradise. Dining options are seemingly endless. From a late night dinner of freshly caught blackened grouper to a stacked fish sandwich in a basket overflowing with fries, you can get what you want, when you want it and anywhere you want to have it. Newly caught Florida seafood accompanied by garden-fresh vegetables is the pride of many dining establishments and is always a good choice for guests. At more casual eateries, you can have fish nuggets nestled in a bed of tartar sauce or shrimp accompanied by a tangy mango salsa, all while listening to a band playing the music of the islands.

Stuff to do with Did you know that there’s more to Florida oranges than making juice?

Oranges

Oranges have long been a symbol of Florida and probably the state’s best known export. The liquid from the colorful fruit has satisfied the taste buds of juice groupies from around the world. But there are many other uses for the fruit as well. The aptly named Orange is a versatile product that can be used to add zing to just about any recipe. Uses range from a tangy syrup that can be trickled over ice cream to a sour version used to flavor pork and poultry dishes.

Easy Orange Pie 3/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup cornstarch 1-1/2 cups Florida orange juice 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten 1 tablespoon butter • 1 - 9 inch pie crust baked according to package instructions • Any whipped topping, found at your local grocer. • Orange peel strips for garnish

Combine sugar and cornstarch In a large saucepan. Stir in orange juice until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thick and bubbly. Reduce heat; cook and stir an additional two minutes. Remove from heat. Stir 1/2 cup of the hot mixture into egg yolks, then return to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir two minutes longer. Stir in butter. Pour hot filling into baked pie crust. Refrigerate 3 hours before serving. Prior to serving, place a heaping tablespoon of whipped topping on each slice and garnish with orange peel strips, if desired. Makes 6-8 delicious servings.
