They are hanging from trees, dancing, and even pulling Santa's sleigh. See if you can find all 29 pigs. The best part of the display is the synchronized lights to music. It is really incredible how many lights they use. I could have watched it all night. Lights and colors are synchronized to classic and pop Christmas songs. When You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch the house was lit in the Grinch's signature red and green colors while the song played. There is plenty of parking on the swale across the street from the house. The light show will be running until December 31st, 6 to 10 PM nightly. This is great gift to the Jupiter Farms community.

I love how many events the PGA resort has been hosting lately... Their latest was the Pig Out…read moreGourmet Food Truck, where 10 food trucks gathered on the Resort's grounds for us to taste what they do best. We got there around noon, really hot day but so grateful it wasn't raining. If you got VIP tickets you were allowed in the Heineken tent with misters, and shade from the sun. Or, you could buy your way in for $15 extra. We didn't, instead after walking a bit, we found a table with a little shade and parked there. We just took turns going to the trucks and enjoyed a slight breeze from time to time. When you got in, they gave you a wrist band with detachable numbers. Each food truck was numbered to match those on the wristband. Very smart, to keep track of who had tasted their food already. The lines were very organized, the tickets were collected by JROTC members who were all very polite. Everyone working the food trucks was very friendly and, for the most part, we're very quick to serve the food. Here's what we had: Truck 1 - IL Florentino Small Potatoes Gnocchetti with traditional Italian Bolognese Sauce. I love gnocchi so was very happy with this one, off to a good start! I give this one a Bronze medal (as in Third Place). Why bronze, because I did not love the Bolognese sauce. Truck 2 - Flour Power BBQ Pulled pork sandwich. The pork was supposedly slow roasted in dark beer with onions and garlic but unfortunately their meet was bland and flavorless. Truck 3 - Crazydilla Cubadilla - it's like a Cuban sandwich but in a crispy organic tortilla, with a mustard aioli drizzled on top. This was my favorite of the day! Gold Medal! It was exactly what a Cuban sandwich should be but replacement of the bread with the tortilla made it a bit lighter which I liked a lot. Truck 4 - Philly Grill Philly Cheesetake. The bread was the only good thing about this one. The meat had no flavor, almost no cheese on mine, and the peppers were too sweet, which was the only thing I tasted in each bite. Truck 5 - Inspir-Asian Gluten free chicken, glazed with sweet chili sauce, jasmin rice, and broccoli florets. This got the Silver Medal. Even though the rice had very little flavor, the chicken was delicious and I loved the fact that they added the freshness of the broccoli, helping break out all the heavy food we had yet to try. Plus they had the prettiest presentation of all. Truck 6 - Burger Shack Burger topped with smoked bacon, onions, pepper jack cheese, lettuce, to ago,guacamole, jalapeño, and chipotle mayo. We had to wait 30 minutes for this one... I appreciate the "made to order" but when we took a bite we were all dissapointed. There was no guacamole, no heat, and some of the burgers were overcooked and dry. Truck 7 - Lobsta Rollin This was a no show so, really only 9 trucks... That's what we thought until one of the event employees told us about 3 other food trucks, we could try without the numbers. Good job to the PGA and the vent staff for compensating for this one not showing up, and good job for them advertising it everyone. Truck 8 - Mojo on the Go Pork Tacos topped with BBQ sauce and chipotle slaw. This was good. Meat was very well seasoned, tender but next time I will ask for less BBQ sauce. It was too much and it overpowered the taste of the already beautifully cooked meat. Truck 9 - international Classic Cuisine Gravlax Bouchée - Norwegian cured salmon with cream cheese, capers & dill, in a a baked puff pastry. Presentation was very nice but they went overboard with the dill. It was overwhelming and made it almost impossible to enjoy the dish. Truck 10 - Slow Food Truck Braised short beef rib pulled off the bone with grilled queso fresco, topped with fresh (Florida) Arugula and crispy shallots, on a potato roll. This one shares the Bronze Medal with IL Florentino. The queso Fresco and Arugula work magic on this sandwich. Plus the fact that the meat is so tender wins them points. As I said, we did not buy the extra tickets for the Heineken tent but were able to buy beer, wine, and/ or water from another tent. And once we were done we got to look at the cars on display... A Bentley coupe (that is my "if you win the lotto" car, after a 1974 restored Karman Ghia), an Audi, and some other new and classics but, the one that really caught my attention was "Black Beauty", a 1966 Corvette... Beautiful! These events are a great way to spend the day with friends and/ of family and do something out of the ordinary, get away from the routine. I'll keep an eye for more.

All of the food I had was fantastic. When we got there around noon, it was starting to get hot and we were ready to chow down on some food. Thanks to Yelp and Blue for the tickets (YAY!). We stopped by to say hi to Ashley at the tent and we were off to start the adventure. There was a VIP tent for an additional charge that offered drinks, but we didn't go there. Our wristbands had detachable numbers for us to redeem at each food truck to get the food item we wanted. The numbers were collected by the JROTC members and it was very organized. Most of the trucks were quick to serve the food and the people working on those trucks were deserve a standing ovation for cooking for all of us in the scorching weather today. It was nice to sit down and eat the food in the shade while enjoying the breeze as well. Gotta love South Florida! Here were some of my favorites: Keurig - Strawberry pomegranate! The drinks kept me hydrated throughout the entire time. I probably would have passed out if it wasn't for them. BC Tacos - BBQ pulled pork taco topped with coleslaw and corn and the chicken ceasar taco. Che Grill - BBQ pork empanada and Choripan (Argentinean sausage sandwich) Cheesezilla - Steak and cheese sandwich and the classic grilled cheese with white and yellow American mac/cheese InspirAsian - Fierce Bulgogi Chicken (savory pan fried chicken breasts marinated with a Korean BBQ sauce on top of lettuce, cucumber, and carrots dressed with teriyaki sauce Parabas Grill - Green Chile Cheese Steak Tacos (thin sliced ribeye steak, caramelized onions, chiles, and white cheese The car show was neat. I'm not a big car freak, but it was pretty cool to see all the cars on display and to vote on the best custom car. The new black and red Corvette got my eyes and my vote. They even had a military helicopter to check out as well. I'm glad my husband and I was able to attend this event to pig out and to have a great time. Ah, we were about to burst on the way out and are still stuffed from all of the delicious comfort food. Hell yea!

This past Saturday was the 28th annual Palm Beach Holiday Boat Parade and the 23nd Annual Toy Drive…read morebenefiting Toys for Tots and Little Smiles. The parade is presented by the Marine Industries Associations. The parade has partnered with the U.S. Marine Reserves Toys for Tots. They are on a fleet of boats with amber beacons that pull up along the parade route to collection donations of toys. Just wave a flashlight to get their attention. The parade launces at 6 PM from Safety Harbor North Beach Marina and reaches Lighthouse Park in Jupiter at 8 PM where it ends. Bring a picnic or catch the parade at one of the many restaurants and bars lining the route. You can catch the parade at Harborside Place, Jupiter Riverwalk, Sawfish Bay Park, Inlet Park, Lagoon Bridge, U- Tiki Beach, the Square Grouper, Jetty's Waterfront Restaurant, the Waterway Cafe, and where I caught it at Lighthouse Park. I found Lighthouse Park to be ideal because there was plenty of parking and the boats turned around in the Jupiter inlet so I saw them coming and going. Boats are judged on three main factors: lights, enthusiasm, and themed decor and they are eligible to win thousands of dollars of prizes. The lead parade boat shot off off Zambelli fireworks. I was really impressed with the care and creativity people took when decorating their boats. This is just one of the unique ways Florida kicks off the holiday season and I really enjoyed attending this year.

If you sign up for a series of classes and have an unanticipated illness, there is no accommodation whatsoever. They do not respond to your calls/messages and just keep your money. Not worth it!

There are many tents, but not too many which makes it easy for you to spend a few minutes at each perusing and chatting with the each vendor getting to know their expertise. One of my favorite stops each year is the Sunshiners tent where you can find handmade outdoor objects that project glass sparkles all over your yard (or house if you place it indoors). They are made from glass and copper! I also love that they have a few food vendors so you can eat while you shop! Kettle corn, arepas, beignets and freshly squeezed lemonade to name a few. It's also right near the beach and a park with pavilions so if you come with kids, either is a great segway from this event. I will be back each year this wonderful event takes place!
