Scoop du Jour http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/ en-us 2006-12-20T11:51:20-05:00 Gone Scoopin' http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000180.html Stay tuned... And in case you were wondering, we miss you too. Wishing you peace, health and happiness in the coming year. Scoop ya' in 2007.... Lindsey 2006-12-20T11:51:20-05:00 FHI on PBS http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000179.html It's hardly a scoop that PBS is a staple of American television. With such classic programming as Sesame Street, NOVA, and Antiques Roadshow, it's pretty clear why 90 million viewers of all ages tune in each week. With an extensive... Lindsey 2006-08-09T14:14:54-05:00 Going Posta http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000178.html Our lives have become increasingly cluttered. And, in turn, so have our desks. So the opportunity to consolidate is always more than welcome. That's why we're checking out the innovative notes from Posta Chica. This Cali-based company will print your... Lindsey 2006-08-03T15:14:18-05:00 Stay Tuned http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000175.html We admit we're a wee bit obsessed with our iPods, but even with thousands of downloads, we occasionally find ourselves in a jam. When every song starts sounding the same (and that says a lot considering our eclectic tastes), we... Lindsey 2006-07-25T12:31:53-05:00 Animal Kingdom http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000176.html We're absolutely wild about animals, but there's a limit to which ones we'll host in our homes. And, sadly, even our precious pets can't come everywhere with us. But with accessories from Kris Nations, we can keep more exotic species... Lindsey 2006-07-18T12:33:04-05:00 About Last Night... http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000177.html Sometimes we get so caught up in the heat of the moment that we hardly have time to think about the consequences. Perhaps the phrase "Morning After" rings a bell? Oh, we know it sounds scandalous, but we're simply referring... Lindsey 2006-07-11T10:30:49-05:00 Hawaiian Tropic http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000174.html Who among us couldn't use a summer vacation (or three)? From an iTunes-laden road trip (easy access motels, free ice) to a chic five-star destination (easy living, free-flowing champagne), as long as we're away, we're really not picky. And while... Lindsey 2006-06-27T12:15:43-05:00 Beauty and the Beach http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000173.html We've all but abandoned beauty products for summer. Bye-bye, bronzer (no need with that killer tan). See ya, straightener (no point with the humidity). Peace out, polish (well, maybe we'll keep that one around). But no matter what, we would... Lindsey 2006-06-20T17:20:07-05:00 Home Sweet Home http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000172.html Checking the mailbox used to be so exciting, but not so much since e-mail came along. Now most of our correspondence occurs electronically, while snail mail brings us nothing but fliers and bills. We could all use a little "old... Lindsey 2006-06-13T16:57:39-05:00 Goodwill Writing http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000171.html We've all had our share of wild times. We swore we would record some of the craziness, but really, between the hangovers and the all-nighters, who had the drive? Well, if we can't relive our own experiences (or are simply... Lindsey 2006-06-06T15:15:34-05:00 Skirting the Issue http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000170.html Every summer we ask ourselves why we don't exercise more. How's this to jog the memory? Sweat, fatigue and a lack of cute workout clothes for starters. Well, that last excuse is no longer valid, thanks to Running Skirts from... Lindsey 2006-06-01T17:34:52-05:00 Goody Bag http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000166.html Who doesn't remember her first Crayola Crayon box? Forget paper, the names alone were enough to keep us occupied for hours. (What exactly is Raw Umber anyway?) While our 64-box set currently resides in our parents' basement alongside our Cabbage... Lindsey 2006-05-23T11:32:10-05:00 The Skinny on Scoop du Jour http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000165.html We’re always going on about this and that, be it a new handbag designer or our favorite set of dishes. (Boy, do we love to hear ourselves talk.) As the candles begin to flicker on our two-year anniversary cake we... Lindsey 2006-05-16T11:19:32-05:00 Connecting the Dots http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000163.html Who doesn’t dream of achieving cult status? Of course we can’t all be Jimmy Choo, but that certainly doesn’t discourage us from trying. For some it’s easier than others. Case in point: Financial whiz-cum-jewelry designer Alicia VanFleteren. Armed with a... Lindsey 2006-05-10T17:43:23-05:00 Tying the Knot http://www.scoopdujour.com/scoop/archives/000162.html Fashion...a finicky friend at best. That suits us just fine though, as our own tastes tend to possess a bit of ADD (on a good day). Thanks to former architect Annie Mohaupt's unique line of Finnish birch plywood heels with...
