  • Another Opening, Another Show

    Another Opening, Another Show

    We talk a lot on here about what it means to be a New Yorker, and if that’s something we’ll ever really call ourselves. I’m still not sure I can claim the mantle, but there are definitely things that are no longer as novel to me as they were when I moved here nearly seven…

  • June Round Up

    June Round Up

    June busted out all over the place this year and flew by in such a whirlwind that we can’t quite believe it’s almost gone. We’ve been busy bees this month: We both went home for the weekend (on separate occasions), we both saw the Dixie Chicks (once together, Zelda twice), we saw some great theatre…

  • Scout’s Unconventional Resolution Update

    Scout’s Unconventional Resolution Update

    Back in January, I laid out several somewhat unconventional resolutions for 2016. The idea was that by focusing on these out-of-the-box, mostly tangible items, I’d be able to achieve some of my more abstract and harder to quantify goals for the year. So as we approach the six month mark in 2016, I felt it was time to…

  • March Round Up

    March Round Up

    Oh March, you topsy turvy month of lions and lambs, sunshine and snow, steaming hot lattes and iced coffee on the rocks, you really took us for a roller coaster ride. We’ve been busy of late — with work, with friends, with life — and your ups and downs left us feeling discombobulated at times,…

  • Zelda’s 2016 Broadway Wish List

    Zelda’s 2016 Broadway Wish List

    It’s been well-established on this blog that both Scout and I are giant theatre nerds. In my case it was ingrained since birth — my parents did meet at choir rehearsal, after all — and I spent my childhood running around the house with a basket in hand and a napkin on my head, belting out Les…

  • Don’t You Just Love New York in the Fall?

    Don’t You Just Love New York in the Fall?

    It makes me want to buy school supplies, and do all of the things on this list. New York in the fall is New York at its best, conjuring up Nora Ephron and Rob Reiner visions of a city gone sepia-toned. You can keep your summer rooftop bars and your springtime row boats and your…

  • These Are a Few of Our Favorite Folks: New York Edition!

    These Are a Few of Our Favorite Folks: New York Edition!

    The internet is a big place, and many people call it home. That’s the wonderful thing about technology: It allows you to form cozy little communities whose members may be scattered to all corners of the globe. You can connect with people miles away or right next door, all at the drop of a hat.…

  • Ode On A Midweekend

    Ode On A Midweekend

    There is nothing so sacred to the millennial as the weekend: the time of sleeping in, of boozy brunch, and of Netflix bingeing. To the average 20-something, Saturday and Sunday are holy days of relaxation as one recharges, regroups, and prepares for the week ahead. To some of us, however, Saturday and Sunday are nothing…
