Interesting piece by local food writer Victoria Pesce Elliott in the Miami Herald a couple of days ago about food trucks finally reaching Miami in a big way. You'll find them in locations including South Beach, downtown, the Design District, Biscayne Boulevard, with updates via Web and Twitter. Top contenders include Gastropod (www.gastropodmiami.com, international bistro fare) and Latin Burger (www.latinburger.com) - gourmet tacos, latinized burgers/fries). About time!

Thanks for the interest in our St. Louis and Cincinnati legs of our Midwest Baseball Tour. Now it's time to put the Gateway City behind us as we head into the final stretch. Today, on The World on Wheels, we get some presidential history, eat some great barbecue, and visit some Kansas City landmarks as we get ready for our last baseball game: http://tinyurl.com/2d2r82u

My friend Claudine Hemingway Knapp has recently written a small Guide to French Cuisine using the Tour De France as an organising theme see http://tinyurl.com/2dodyvg

It is great example of drawing together a few themes (cycling, international events, cookery, tourism) to create a saleable product which she has published as an ebook and as hard copy. Maybe I need to do something like it for regional French wines.

Anil - I've experimented a lot with different rums and juices. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. I use lime a lot because I like the taste better than lemon.

Darryl: Have you tried using Dark rum and some native fruit juices ? You used limeade, and amaretto. I just picked up some Don Q rum last week from Puerto Rico - I will experiment and report back.
