Fall 2018 Playlist: Nora Ephron Goals
Don’t you just love New York in the fall? We ran away to Zelda’s home away from home in New Hampshire last weekend — an all-too brief jaunt but one that was full of both peak foliage and peak cozy. It was hard to tear ourselves away, but we were thrilled to find that autumn…

Early Winter Playlist 2017: Holly Jolly
Sleigh bells ringing, lords a’leaping, dreidels spinning, candles glowing: The holiday season is full of magic and light. But our absolute favorite part may just be the music. We count down the days until that magical Friday in November when, Thanksgiving safely stowed away until next year, we can let our festive flags fly. It’s…

Autumn 2016: Rain-Soaked Highway
Autumn has rushed into Brooklyn. The air is crisp and cool. Zelda is unfurling her cavalcade of scarves. Kids are heading back to school. and Scout is heading back below the Mason-Dixon line on a 12-hour road trip to attend yet another wedding (she’s actually quite excited about this one), and Zelda is off on a journey her…

November Playlist: City of Strangers
Commuting is an integral part of New York City life — hours spent on crowded subway platforms, sweltering in the summer and icy in the winter months, smelling of piss and one dollar pizza.

March Playlist: Musical Madness, Act II
Our love of musicals is so great it spilled over into a second act, and that’s with the pared down version. (It’s not a problem: It’s just a challenge — it’s a challenge! — to resist…putting every song we love on this list.) We pick up after intermission with two Southern gals relocating to New…

November Playlist: Oldies and Goodies
The holidays are almost upon us, and we’ve been getting nostalgic. Something about the colder weather and dimming days has us hankering for the vintage, something finely aged with a little more soul. So for this month’s playlist, we have “Oldies and Goodies.” Some of these are songs we grew up with, some of them…

September Playlist: Sidewalk Stompin’
In New York, nothing sets the mood for your day more than your commute. Did you make your transfer, or were you running down the block, a ball of flying limbs, trying to wave down the bus driver (he’s not going to stop for you, no matter how much you may want him to)? Did…
