Oh, SunFest, how we adore thee. The last big festival of the season, SunFest brings art, music, and three floating bar(ge)s to West Palm Beach for one extended weekend as a last fling before summer makes it just too unbearable to have outdoor fun!

This year, music headliners will include Train, Smashing Pumpkins, Slightly Stoopid, the Black Crowes, and Jimmy Cliff -- to name a few.

In addition to music, there's the gigantic art fair, lots of great food (we live for the curly fries), and the Captain Morgan floating oasis bars.

The Snow Factory serves fresh-shaved, Hawaiian-style ices.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Since the Florida Snow Factory opened three months ago in the Harbor Shops plaza in Fort Lauderdale, we South Floridians can get snow anytime we want -- even in the middle of summer. And it won't mess up the roads or muck up our yards with ugly brown and yellow piles of packed slush for weeks on end.

Instead, we get our snow fresh-shaved, packed into a plastic cone and doused in fun flavored syrups. In addition to over a dozen ice cream flavors and a constantly rotating selection of D'Lites soft serve and frozen yogurt, this boutique-style ice cream parlor offers Hawaiian-style fresh-shaved ices made using an old-fashioned machine that blasts out a light, fluffy snow-like ice which is guaranteed to be better than those granular balls of machine-manufactured ice we're all used to seeing.

"It's really a unique frozen treat," marketing manager Matthew Kushner told Clean Plate Charlie. "You can watch staff perform the century-old art of shaving blocks of ice, which comes out like fresh-packed snow rather than those ice crystals you're probably used to seeing."

South Florida may not be hosting the Super Bowl anytime in the near future, but at least we have the chance to host another kind "bowl" this year.

Panera Bread and The Pap Corps are teaming up for a second-run with a food-focused fundraiser, a promo event that aimed at raising awareness and funds for The Pap Corps, the largest all-volunteer organization in the United States dedicated solely to funding research on all types of cancer.

Gridiron Grill-Off via Facebook

John Offerdahl, Chef Greg mcGowan, and Troy Stradford will be grilling on Saturday.

There are few things in this world that go together better than football and grilling. After all, what could be better than watching the game while chowing down on a rack of ribs or tailgating in the parking lot with a brew and a burger?

"Nom, nom nom."

Breakfast, some experts say, is the most important meal of the day. Yet in our fast-paced lives, cooking up a hearty breakfast before hitting rush hour traffic... It just doesn't happen.

When pressed for time, the egg sandwich is the answer. It's packed with flavor and protein and keeps those hunger pangs away through lunchtime. Luckily, Einstein Bros Bagels announced earlier this week a deal on their popular egg sandwich -- busy hungry folks can buy one and get one free. Boom.
