Feel the Blogger Love

Had a lovely evening last night at the Miami blogger holiday party organized by the fantastically thoughtful crew over at MiamiBeach411 (thanks Gus and Michelle!). We feasted on Tuscan Steak fare (roasted chicken, spicy broccoli, wild mushroom risotto, Gorgonzola gnochhi and, of course, steak) and there was lots of blogger love to go around. I got to bond with Christian from Fanless over the Sobe party scene, connected with Dan Renzi over Basel gossip and had a chance to put faces to blogs which is always a nice thing. It was great to finally meet Rick from Stuck on the Palmetto and talk blogger suicide (can you believe he almost called the whole thing kaput a few weeks ago?) and to chat with Restaurant Gal about the blogging lifestyle. Loved talking with Verticus from Miami Vision Blogarama about his ideas for a better Miami (the Miami monorail is genius) and to everyone's delight Miami Fever was there, a supersweet guy and so modest about his masterful photography.
I stayed for three hours and it was one of those nights where you look at your watch and you can't believe it's so late because you've been having a great time. It was a great way to cap off my weekend of Basel bacchanalia. Thanks again, Gus!

Well, I too am glad I attended the shindig. Until that night, I hadn't met any fellow bloggers. It was a relief to know they weren't a bunch of nut cases. Meeting you and Avery was a highlight. And, anyone who carries around a purse made up of candy wrappers is alright by me.

Yes it was great meeting you too! I too was impressed with the crowd. Lots of good people to talk to.
