What a busy Friday night and fabulous weather. We headed out to Culinary Rhythms benefiting the Center for Building Hope, hosted by Bill Garst at the Hyatt Regency Sarasota. We found a plethora of happy people and wonderful sponsors.

Then we checked out the Bearded Clam Waterfront Restaurant & Tiki Bar‘s new toys and great renovation. They’re totally ready for the three-hour long dueling pianos next Friday!

Darts and a pool table, the new toys at the Bearded Clam Waterfront Restaurant & Tiki Bar. The all-day and night swimming pool is still my fav', though!

We followed up the Clam with some truly “Lumpytunes! Live,” the WSLR benefit at Growlers Pub.

By then we were starving. But we didn’t know where could we find quick, light food with atmosphere after 10:30pm in Sarasota! (Hey, we had a midnight shoot scheduled at the Floribbean Restaurant to keep.) YIKES. But we actually found it—thank you, Ceviche! We found out that Ceviche had just added some more bites to their menu, and Nikki, our waitress, bent over backwards to make sure that I, Picky Eater #1, got the gluten-free versions of their new dishes. All for moi! Yay!
