📰 In the news
A celebration of artistic diversity: The Short List exhibition at the Cultural Council for Palm Beach County features 140 artists, with works on display and for sale, including Hazel Griffiths and ceramicist Michael Blair — read the full story.
Luxury deals set the tone: Palm Beach County home sales surged for the third month in November, up 19.7% to 1,706. Prices stayed near records, and about half of deals were all-cash amid longer selling times — get all the details.
Power, protocol, and purpose: Netflix’s new series spotlights Palm Beach’s elite world, exploring social rules, local landmarks, and charities as star Rosalyn Yellin highlights philanthropy for causes including cancer research and veteran support — read the full story.
Compare rates for free: The national average for car insurance is around $175 per month. Paying more than that? Same, so I did some shopping around and ended up cutting my premium in half. If you haven’t checked in a while, you’re probably overpaying too — here’s the comparison tool I used.
Protect your nest egg: Savvy investors are turning to gold amidst today’s inflation, national debt, and market uncertainty for a reason. It holds its value when everything else feels shaky. Case in point: it’s up ~62% since this month last year. If you’re curious about adding it and other precious metals to your portfolio, American Hartford has a super helpful guide that covers everything you need to know. It’s free, and definitely worth a read — check it out here.

Highlights this week:

🫶 We got your back
What travelers should know now: About 5% of travelers at Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale airports still lack acceptable ID under Real ID rules that began in May 2025, though most have complied. TSA will charge a $45 fee starting Feb. 1 to passengers without valid ID. An online payment option is in the works. Get all the details.
Meet your river neighbors: Skip the tourist slog and let the Loxahatchee River Center remind you why living here is special, with touch tanks, local fish, and interactive exhibits that turn a quick pop-in into a mini reset. A low-stress, high-curiosity stop that slots neatly between soccer drop-offs and dinner.
Burrito night, upgraded: Whether you’re team carne asada or veg-curious, El Fogoncito rolls hearty, flavor-packed burritos, plus comforting extras like tacos, enchiladas, sopes, even mole. Ideal for no-cook nights when you still want dinner that tastes like care.
Thinning hair? Same: I’ve been shedding a lot, and recently noticed my ponytail feeling thinner. After way too much panic-Googling, I discovered Keranique’s hair regrowth system. Everything with them is surprisingly easy: no quizzes, no pills, no choosing between dozens of products. Just grab the kit and follow the instructions. The best part? It’s $75 off right now, you’ll get three free gifts, AND you’ll get your money back if you don’t love the results.
