For many people, we've learned that <a href="http://www.miamistyleme.com">electronic cigarettes</a> provides a way of quitting. But even for those who don't want to quit, at least it's a much healthier product -- it just contains nicotine and a food additive that makes the vapor. No tar or any of the other 2000-3000 chemicals including multiple carcinogens and addictive substances that cigarettes have. And electronic cigarettes give the person using them the hand-to-mouth, inhaling experience they crave.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.MiamiStyleMe.com">www.MiamiStyleMe.com</a> is a review site that provides information about the best electronic cigarettes, the ones to be avoided and everything in between. I invite you to visit the site today. And please pass it along to your friends and loved ones who smoke or are trying to quit.VinItaly Verona 2008http://www.blogger.com/profile/14545438614134571884noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044958642972357955.post-72053150962580698462010-07-01T12:54:00.001-04:002010-07-01T12:54:22.895-04:00You are Invited to Gaetano's Ristorante in Coral GablesJoin DINE at Gaetano's<br />in Coral Gables for Happy Hour<br />on Tuesday, July 6, 2010<br /><br />Join Dine Magazine at Gaetano’s Ristorante, located inside Hotel St. Michel, for an authentic taste of Italy.

Games are being held in host cities across the country, but my personal favorite is cosmopolitan Cape Town, known as the Mother City to South Africans.<br /><br />A mix of unique activities, beautiful climate, and truly fabulous food makes Cape Town one of my top worldwide destinations. I've enjoyed hiking Table Mountain, lingering over dinner at Constantia Utsig, shopping the galleries and crafts markets, and strolling the city's stunning botanical gardens.<br /><br />Here are a few of my most-recommended Cape Town hotels:<br /><br />Les Cascades de Bantry Bay: Dramatically perched overlooking the Atlantic, this boutique gem is located in exclusive Bantry Bay. Just six spacious suites are bedecked with unusual Asian and African artifacts, and dark wood furniture.<br /><br />The Cellars-Hohenort: This charming rural retreat features an 18th century building just minutes away from the Constantia wine route. 53 suites offer views of the surrounding Constantia Valley and the hotel's beautifully landscaped garden.<br /><br />Tintswalo Atlantic: If you like the sea as much as I do, there's nowhere else I'd recommend staying. Staff will drive you anywhere you'd like to go, so there's no need to rent a car, and the setting at the base of a cliff is this hotel's trump card.Joannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04878213846489708061noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9044958642972357955.post-24382922710990557872010-06-11T11:06:00.000-04:002010-06-11T11:07:23.843-04:00Daily Candy- where to watch the World Cup?The Weekend Guide<br />Where to Watch the World Cup in Miami<br />where to watch the world cup in miami! <br /><br />Your Cup runneth over.<br /><br />SCORE<br />The World Cup Lounge<br />What: Amadeus Bar sets up a special screening area with plush sofas, high-top tables, and the games on multiple flat-screens.<br />Why: Continental breakfast buffets for morning games and pizza and salad in the afternoon ($15/person), bar snacks ($7-$16) reflecting the playing teams’ cuisine, and more than 30 international beers.<br />When: Fri.-July 11, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. (during World Cup matches).<br />Where: The Ritz-Carlton Coconut Grove, 3300 SW 27th Ave., Coconut Grove (305-644-4680).
