📰 Most-clicked stories this week

Italian flavors with pedigree: The Daily Focaccia will open in West Palm Beach in a few months, serving focaccia and sandwiches with burrata and prosciutto, plus wines and beers from former Bice chefs — get opening and menu details.

Design team and 2027 completion: Related Ross secured $157 million to build Shorecrest, a 28-story, 98-unit waterfront condo on Flagler Drive in West Palm Beach. Demolition was slated to begin in February, with spring groundbreaking — get all the project details.

Designer’s show house debut: Justin Moreland designs the entry for the Kips Bay Decorator Show House in West Palm Beach, open for tours through March 24 and supporting Boys and Girls Clubs — get all the details.

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.

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.

All the crowd favorites:

• Shop $2-per-pound fashion treasures
• Celebrate women of impact in Palm Beach
• Party waterside with Palm Beach leaders
• Save on self-care during the CVS Epic Beauty Sale

🏆 Gold and silver are heating up

Together with our sponsor American Hartford Gold

Gold just posted its strongest run in decades… and the momentum is carrying into 2026. Silver has become one of the most talked-about assets as investors look for ways to stay ahead of market volatility.

While many are still sitting on the sidelines, others are quietly repositioning.

If you’re wondering whether you’re missing something, AHG has a free guide explaining what’s driving the renewed interest… and how investors are approaching precious metals right now.

It’s free and worth reading before the next move.

🫶 This week’s top finds

When only a burger will do: Grease Burger Bar is the local move when a serious burger mood strikes, with juicy patties, crispy sides, and plenty to sip while you debate toppings. Consider it a midweek win and indulge without overthinking it; Grease Burger Bar rarely disappoints.

Serious wing cravings? At Thirsty Turtle Seagrill, crispy, saucy wings come fried to a crunch and tossed in signature house-made sauce. Grab a table with friends, catch the game on big screens, and let the napkins handle the mess.

Swing smarter this week: Whether you’re chasing a full 18 or grabbing a quick night loop, The Park in West Palm Beach delivers with a course by Gil Hanse, the lighted Lit 9, and a Toptracer range. Ideal for a midweek reset or sneaking in swings between life things.

Thinning hair? It only gets worse: A few months ago, I noticed my ponytail getting thinner. I tried the usual stuff (biotin, shampoo, etc.) but mostly just hoped it would fix itself… until I learned that active follicles can permanently go dormant if you don’t do something about it. The good news? You can get treatment that actually works with no office visits or trips to the pharmacy. Learn more about my favorite online options here.

Someone Googled you this week 👀

It may feel like an invasion of privacy, but unfortunately It’s the new normal. Whether you’re joining a committee, selling something locally, dating again, or just meeting new neighbors… people are going to look you up online.

Like it or not, the internet has a way of surfacing past mistakes and outdated information that no longer reflects who you are.

Thankfully, there’s a really easy way for you – or someone you care about – to clean up outdated results that no longer tell the real story. Learn more here.
