  • On Mrs. Maisel and Moxie and Marvelous Manhattan

    On Mrs. Maisel and Moxie and Marvelous Manhattan

    Awards season officially kicked off a couple weekends ago with the 75th annual Golden Globes. I have a soft spot for award shows, even if acceptance speeches have an uncanny ability to make me cry, and this ceremony, with its black-washed, #MeToo, #TimesUp theme, was particularly moving. Fierce, brave, powerful women took the stage again…

  • July Round Up

    July Round Up

    It’s summertime in the city, and the living in our parts is decidedly sweaty. The heat has seeped in everywhere, even in places that should remain blessedly cool (see: Scout’s workplace, Zelda’s apartment). Zelda spent much of this month drowning in politics (#newsroomlyfe), while Scout was besieged by hordes of summer campers (#museumlyfe). But we…

  • November Round Up

    November Round Up

    Where oh where has November gone? This year is on track to be the hottest on record, and the past month’s unseasonably warm climes left us discombobulated, and shocked when Thanksgiving and the subsequent holiday bonanza snuck up on us. Or maybe the reason November seemed to fly by is that it was a whirlwind…

  • October Round Up

    October Round Up

    We’re so glad we live in a world with Octobers — the month of changing leaves and freshly picked apples, cozy evenings and crisp walks, birthdays and bourbon and hot lattes (pumpkin spiced or otherwise). October is our favorite, and our only complaint is that this one flew by way too quickly, in a haze…

  • July Round Up

    July Round Up

    We’ll be honest: July hasn’t been all that kind to us. Between Zelda’s apartment hunt and Scout’s job/roommate hunt, we might be having a little trouble keeping our shit totally together. But y’all have been our solace in a rough mental landscape; it’s been nice to have something constant to anchor us in this ever-more-stress-inducing…

  • June Round Up

    June Round Up

    New York has skipped right over spring and rocketed us into the balmy, sweaty, how-many-fans-is-it-reasonable-to-own temperatures of June. We do love this time of year — it makes us think of home, where it’s so humid that the windows fog up — but it’s not quite as easy to endure without the comfort of central…

  • February Playlist: Galentine’s Day

    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. Here at Zelda & Scout, however, we are much more interested…

  • Top 14 of 2014

    Top 14 of 2014

    The year is coming to an end, so instead of our usual monthly round-up we thought we’d give you a little list of our favorite things from the past year. From the serious to the silly, these are a few of the things that made our 2014! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL: First things first: we are sports fans.…

  • November Round Up, and an Announcement!

    November Round Up, and an Announcement!

    Hey Folks! Welcome to this month’s round-up. We hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving and are, like us, already entrenched in full-on holiday mode as December rolls around the bend. We both enjoyed very brief but lovely jaunts to our Old Kentucky Home for the holiday, and even if Zelda only spent 6 hours of…

  • Deep-Fried Shoe! Or Seven Thanksgiving Episodes to Prepare You For the Real Thing

    Deep-Fried Shoe! Or Seven Thanksgiving Episodes to Prepare You For the Real Thing

    Television has been a large part of Zelda’s and my relationship. In our fourteen years of friendship, we’ve bonded over many serialized fictional characters, matching up who is who from our actual friend groups to the ones that graced our beloved small screens (I’m Lorelai; she’s Rory. I’m Robin; she’s Lily. I’m Phoebe; she’s Monica.…
