In the matters of love and food, heart can only be served two ways . Fluffy, sweet, heart shaped pancakes or spit fire roasted heart on a hot metal skewer. Of course there are shades of gray in between: take for example burnt fluffy pancakes or sweet teriyaki glazed hearts on a skewer.  That said, keep in mind that those are just disguises. Of all the bizarre things I have eaten, heart is one I just don’t have the heart to eat. I’m not saying I haven’t eaten it, just that I’d prefer not to do it again. It is the source of our being,  our motor, the source of our love and emotion and the place where our loved ones go when they leave…  right? That’s what I remember being told. Either way, cooking takes heart! Food made with heart or love or whatever you want to call it, tastes better. You can never have too much heart.  It’s a lot like cowbell in that way. In honor of the impending fall weather and the coolest (84°) daytime weather Miami has seen in months, I give you the heartiest heartwarming chili.

Pamela Love Heart Locket

Secrets. They’re the one thing everyone has that everyone else is dying to know. So the question is: How do we maintain our “secret selves” in the face of the world’s prying attempts to figure us out? Designers have risen to the challenge, and consistently created inventive and stylish ways to help us remain enigmatic. Everything from sunglasses to the trench coat have kept peeping Toms at bay but now lockets are staking their claim amongst the secret chic. Jewelry designers like Pamela Love have taken to the mysterious and romantic qualities of the locket and incorporated them into her collection to make something intriguingly beautiful this season. My personal favorite is the locket of the not-so-traditionally shaped heart, made in the shape of an actual human heart. The idea is eerie and mystifying –playing seamlessly with the secret motif and keeping everyone in the dark. Websites like etsy.com have vintage lockets for sale as well for those who favor the more classic lockets. So with your sunglasses, trench coat, and locket, you’ll have everyone wanting to know more.

the mystique of blood and light

"... these strange-looking figures in green with masks covering their faces so you can only see their eyes, they must be angels. And their hands are drenched with blood, my mother's blood, and they're holding like a trophy a small fleshy something with arms and legs and a face contorted into a scream, and that something is me. This is heaven."
