I grew up in Waterdown, back when it still felt like a small town. Before the growth, before the big box stores—when village businesses were closed on Sundays and cornfields bordered the schoolyard where I played. These days, I live on a small farm about 15 minutes outside of town, where my husband and I keep Shetland sheep, a few hives of honeybees, curly-feathered Sebastopol geese, and, according to him, “way too many” chickens.

ST. PETERSBURG — If you frequent businesses around town, you’ll see them all over: listed as the blend for the coffee at Pete’s General, in the espresso martinis at the new seafood spot Cheeky’s, in the cold brew at Intermezzo Coffee & Cocktails. Look Alive Coffee’s funky skull logo has popped up in Tampa at Willa’s and Little Tina, and in Largo at the coffee shop Swell. If you haven’t noticed the brand before, you’re about to.

Los calurosos y pegajosos días del verano de Florida están aquí, y ya es hora de sumergirse en agua refrescante. No todos estamos bendecidos con una piscina en el jardín o con amigos que viven en complejos de apartamentos de lujo con comodidades en la azotea. Pero no hace falta ser turista para darse un chapuzón en resorts y hoteles en toda la región de Tampa Bay.
