🏆 Most popular this week
Curated by popular demand — here are this week’s most-clicked events, local spots, and stories.
Unexpected coastal dining gem: A short drive from Port St. Lucie, Jupiter’s Dive Bar Restaurant is winning praise for Florida’s best lobster roll, plus sushi, bar seating, and waterfront views in a laid-back setting — see why it stands out.
Sunshine State shores for less: A recent guide lists 10 Florida beach towns where $1,800 a month covers rent, groceries, and utilities, including nearby Fort Pierce on the Treasure Coast for budget friendly coastal living — explore all ten beach towns.
Notable chefs join forces: Jupiter’s new SaltBird Kitchen & Bar recently opened, bringing coastal Southern flavors like BBQ Chicken Egg Rolls and a “Southern” Burger, an easy drive for Port St. Lucie diners — explore the menu and team.
Supply chain crime crackdown: Florida authorities arrested six men in a $7.8 million cargo theft ring that hit St. Lucie and other counties, with prosecutors saying they face up to 300 years if convicted — see who was charged.
Big-league training upgrades: Construction began February 18 at Clover Park in Port St. Lucie on the Mets’ new 55,000 square foot player development complex, with a weight room, 180 lockers, and hydrotherapy pools — get all the details.
Exclusive custom estate unveiled: A newly completed Jupiter megamansion in Admirals Cove listed for $33.25 million offers five bedrooms, top-tier finishes, and access to the community golf and yacht club, with membership paid separately — get all the details.
Gold & silver are hot: Coming off gold’s best year since 1979, the momentum is carrying well into 2026 with silver remaining one of the most talked-about assets. Curious why precious metals are back in focus? American Hartford Gold has a free guide that explains what’s happening and how people are approaching it today. It’s free – and definitely worth a read.
Compare rates for free: The national average for car insurance is around $175/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.
Nothing prepares you for a pet emergency: I learned that the hard way after charging $10k to a credit card for life-saving surgery on my cat, Miss Stache. As soon as we got home, I signed up for Spot. It’s super affordable – and reimburses up to 90% of the bill.

🍳 Wild Wild West Celebrity Chef @ Fujiyama Stuart Japanese Steak House | Tuesday (3/3) at 6:00 PM – Trade flip-flops for boots and graze through a chef-led Wild West tasting, more saloon chic than costume party.

⛺ Cub Scouts @ City Church | Thursday (3/5) at 6:30 PM – Bring the kids and your patience to Summit’s Cub Scouts kickoff at City Church, where info, fellowship, and an ice cream social make recruitment go down easy. Boys and girls K-5 welcome. Think leadership skills, new buddies, and a sugar-fueled bedtime negotiation.

🎸 Vertigo @ Tradition Square | Friday (3/6) at 5:00 PM – Skip the I-95 shuffle and get your U2 fix at Tradition Square, where Vertigo nails the hits and the food trucks handle dinner. It’s sing-alongs, starry skies, and zero arena pricing. Bring a chair, your appetite, and your inner Bono.
🎨 First Friday Artwalk @ Moss & Muse | Friday (3/6) at 5:00 PM – Whether you’re an art hound or just here for the houseplants, First Friday at Moss & Muse is a mellow stroll of local artists, handmade goods, and neighborly chatter.
