    March Playlist: Musical Madness, Act I

    When you move to New York, there are a lot of things that are…disappointing. Whether you’ve been rewatching You’ve Got Mail since age 7 or gobbling up Serendipity hot chocolates and Canal Street knock-offs on weekend visits, when you finally find yourself in the Big Apple, you quickly learn that the reality does not match…

    Bless Your Heart, New York: BBQ Blues

    Dear New York, We’ve got a bone to pick with you. See we’ve been here a while, and we’ve seen some things. Some things that you call barbecue. But we’re here to inform you that BBQ as you know it is, for the most part, not BBQ at all. And, dear misinformed New York, you…

  • February Round Up

    February Round Up

    Oh February: month of chocolate, teddy bears, and glaring at PDA on the subway. While this month wasn’t particularly busy or exciting for either of us — just lots of work, more work, and then work again — it seemed to fly by. Maybe it’s because February is shorter than all the other months, bless…

    The Best Friend Tag

    Happy Galentine’s Day, y’all! To wrap up our very special week of festive content, we have something a little different for you. We were besties long before we were bloggers (14 years and counting now…). So to let you get to know us, the real people behind Zelda and Scout, a little better, and to…

    It’s Like Lillith Fair, Minus the Angst, Plus Frittatas

    Webster’s Dictionary defines Galentine’s Day as the holiest of all holidays, an all-out celebration of female friendship and camaraderie, free of romantic entanglements but chock full of breakfast food and memories to last a lifetime. Ok, so if we’re being totally honest, Webster’s hasn’t quite jumped aboard the Leslie Knope train yet, much like Congress…

    February Playlist: Galentine’s Day

    The second week of February has rolled around, and most of you are probably bracing yourselves for the Cupid-laden festivities of the 14th, whether you’re happily ensconced in a romance or looking to drown your singledom in a well-timed pint of Ben and Jerry’s.

  • January Round Up

    January Round Up

    We can’t quite believe that January has come and gone already, making us 1/12th of the way through 2015. This has been a month of resolutions and retrospection, of tea and Netflix and hibernation. The first real snow has fallen, the temperatures have dropped, and we’re rocking the fleece-lined leggings like nobody’s business. We both…
