I've blogged about Coasters Pub & Biergarten in the past. This is a great Indian Harbour Beach pub that is pet friendly. Heck, the people at Coasters Pub & Biergarten are just plain friendly all the time! Well, this coming weekend from March 6th through Sunday March 8th is the 6th annual Coasters Pub Belgian Beer Fest.

This year there are 35 different Belgian and Belgian styled Beers on tap. In total there will be over 50 different types of Belgian Beers available for the Beer connoisseur.

All dogs must be on a leash and all dogs must wear tags with current license and vaccination information. Owners must clean up after their dogs. 02/16/2015

Sunrise in Indian Harbour Beach, Florida 2/8/2015: A raccoon got first tracks on the beach this morning.     As the morning sun starts to break through the early morning clouds.     The beach was loaded with sea shells as far as you could see.   I make it a point to always pick up trash off of the beach. It's my way of giving back for being able to enjoy such a beautiful natural environment.     This is  my favorite photo (out of 176) that I took this morning.   Ahh I feel better now.   What a way to start my day!!! Hope you have a great one too! 02/07/2015

     George and Shelley contacted me on my website back in 2011. They were interested in a beachside home. We started looking...and even went under contract on a home at the end of 2012 (a beachfront condo...but it was not to be). They called me back in the middle of July and asked if we could begin the looking process again. They also needed me to take a look at the home they had because they would need to sell it. We found a home they really liked, but of course they needed to sell that other home first...how often this happens. Now we were in a rush to get the old home ready and try to sell before this beautiful riverfront townhouse sold. I made a list of projects that would need to be done before we got on the market (if you want to sell quickly you must prepare!). They handled the... 11/17/2014

Coasters Pub & Biergarten was a nice surprise! Being that I am Colorado girl, I have been looking for a good bison burger ever since I arrived on the Space Coast, heck bison anything! Bison is actually the correct name for what most Americans call buffalo.  Bison is a tasty, healthier alternative to beef.  Pound for pound, bison has less fat and cholesterol than beef...and it is delicious! Most people could not tell the difference if served bison in place of beef.  Back in Colorado, virtually every restaurant that serves beef will offer a bison alternative, which, I chose virtually every chance I got.  Here on the Space Coast, those options just aren't available.  So, this past week, when my mom and I wanted to pick up a bite out, I was floored when we walked up to Coasters Pub & Bierg... 08/04/2014

The Hula Moon Tiki Grill is where I had lunch today and I liked it!  Located at 1900 Hwy A1a in Indian Harbour Beach, the Hula Moon Tiki Grill is situated in the commercial strip mall in front of Lowes right next to Pinetree Drive.  Advertised as a Hawaiian/Polynesian restaurant, the rich dark wood colors are the first thing that you notice when you walk into Hula Moon Tiki Grill.  I have always loved Hawaiian poke, so, when I saw an ahi poke bowl on the menu I had to try it!    Typically poke is made from small cubed pieces of sushi grade fish that is seasoned with sea salt (preferably Hawaiian sea salt), soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic and chili.  At Hula Moon Tiki Grill, the poke is served on topped of a bowl of cooled white rice, and was garnished with tomato, green onion, corn,a man... 07/16/2014

This past week I met a friend at Ferrara's Pizza & Pasta at 276 Eau Gallie Blvd in Indian Harbour Beach.  This little Italian place is located next to Publix and Jade Palace.  I was really looking forward to eating at Ferrara's because my friend had raved about the food there and I had heard other positive comments about it from a couple other people. When I go to an Italian restaurant, my "litmus test" if you will is Eggplant Parmesan.  I absolutely love eggplant, and, if a restaurant has great Eggplant Parmesan, then in my opinion, the restaurant passes the "test".  I have to regretfully say that I was not impressed by either the Eggplant Parmesan nor the side of spaghetti that came with it.  The garlic bread knots that came with the meal were great!  Warm, soft, garlicky and deliciou... 07/13/2014

          We have all heard the phrase       “truth is stranger than fiction”well, that is precisely what happened here on the Space Coast this week!. For the last three weeks, there have been numerous sightings of a shark in the lake at Gleason Park in Indian Harbour Beach.  Bull sharks have the ability to survive in freshwater habitats, which is probably why this animal  survived so long in Gleason Lake. The  lake is not attached in any way to either the Indian River Lagoon or the Atlantic ocean!  so exactly how he got into the lake is a mystery.  But the probability is that someone put him there.                                                            The juvenile bull shark was nicknamed "Sushi" and evaded all attempts to capture it until this morning. After Sushi was captured b... 06/26/2014

Hula Moon Tike Grill is a Hawaiian-Polynesian style Tiki Bar recently opened in Indian Harbour Beach, FL it is located in front of the Lowe's on Hwy A1A. The owners of Hula Moon apparently decided to shoot for a slightly less casual version of a traditional tiki bar. It appears they wanted to aim at the business lunch - after work happy hour crowd. Huge central bar, nice semi upscale decor, T.V. sets throughout for the sports crowd...a very nice place to come and relax after a hard day! The menu at Hula Moon is eclectic to say the least...traditional South Seas dishes appear alongside Mexican options, pasta, bowls, fish and chips and Ceviche! I tried the South Seas Taco which included grilled or fried fish (I chose grilled of course), It included a soft tortilla with taco slaw, pico de... 03/15/2014

I am really careful about the food I give my dogs. They get NOTHING from China.  I watched a colleague mourn the death of her dog and beat herself up because the dog died from food she fed her that was from China.  But, doggie treats from premium natural dog food stores are really pricey. So, I decided to see if I could come up with an natural, homemade alternative.  Today I made homemade doggie biscuits.  I cannot even tell you how INSANE the Yorkies were, they were all over these things!  They absolutely LOVED them!  So here my friends is the recipe that I used.           Pumpkin Dog Biscuits 2 eggs1/2 cup canned pumpkin*2 tablespoons dry milk1/4 teaspoon sea salt2 1/2 cups brown rice flour **1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional) Preheat oven to 350 degrees In large bowl, whisk together... 02/25/2014
