To fête its new Beats Pill XL portable speaker, Beats by Dre hosted an all-out dinner at The Monarch Room that touched on the relationship between music, emotions and food, exploring, “how the emotion of sound delights, evokes and excites the palette.” To heighten the experience, Beats by Dre called upon four New York-based tastemakers […]

Allison Arevalo and Erin Wade met by happenstance, when they shared a table with their husbands at a crowded café one Sunday. Arevalo, who worked in marketing, and Wade, who was a lawyer, started chatting about their love of food. It only made sense because Wade had previously worked as a pastry and line cook […]

While checking out all of the amazing brands at The Northern Grade in Austin, we came across this inspiring little magazine in the airstream of Moore & Gilles.

Summer camping season is in full swing, and that means cooking your latest catch, or favorite backpacking meal in the great outdoors.

New technology does not only sprout from the high end.  Sitting comfortably under the large conglomerate umbrella of its brand namesake, Swatch takes it’s turn at affordable innovation.  Known for the the fun plastic straps 1980s babies grew up with, this brand has reemerged in recent years.  Fun and affordable Swatch can now add mechanical […]

Since most of us are officially sizzling in the summer heat, we thought it would be a good time to interview someone who spends his free time doing one of our favorite pastimes, sailing.
