When an opportunity comes along to visit the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo after the sun goes down, I’d be hardpressed to pass it up. After a holiday party there a few years ago, I knew I couldn’t miss their ZippityZooDoo when I first learned about it. Hosted by the Cleveland Zoological Society, the ZippityZooDoo is Cleveland’s longest-running benefit. For this…
For a region whose cold weather is the punchline of a lot of jokes, it may be surprising at first glance that one of Northeast Ohio’s most visited year-round attractions is the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. With 183 acres, this primarily outdoor venue welcomed 1.3 million visitors last year. After our first visit to Cleveland’s Zoo a couple years ago, Scott and I immediately understood its popularity. Home […]
Between seeing Avengers three times over the last four days (some may say I have a problem; I prefer to think Avengers is just that damn good) and entertaining my parents during this weekend’s visit, I was a bit exhausted when I got to work on Monday. The upside of this? I got to treat myself to coffee. Because I can be a somewhat […]

Fortunately, Kate Galo (you may remember her from this and also this guest post) was able to attend and blog on my behalf. Enjoy her recap below along with photos from Sarah Casto! I think it’s fair for […]

When Scott and I bought our house a few years ago, our first investment for the outside was a nice patio set. We knew that if we wanted something to last awhile, we’d have to splurge a bit. And after looking back on summer nights spent grilling and enjoying our backyard, the set we got […]

I’ve made no secret of the fact that AMP 150 is one of my favorite restaurants in Cleveland. The awesomeness they brought to this year’s Jump Back Ball VIP party is just one reason why I love them. Another reason is how Chef Jeff Jarrett and his team demonstrate their dedication to local, green food. In…
I’m so happy that Friday is finally here — not just because this was one looonngg week, but also because it’s time to announce the winner of the Market at the Foodbank giveaway. After using random.org to pick the winner from the 84 comments: I am happy to announce that entry #10 – Dawgpndgirl has […]
