Living out our adventures in Western New York (our hometown, Medina, NY). We're Scott and Al - the brains and brawn behind this blog. Follow us as we eat (especially guacamole), drink (good wine and cocktails), and play our way through the Western New York area (we'll still be posting about DC). We're always open to suggestions for our next date night, so don't be shy! You can also follow us on Twitter and Instagram at

Hey friends/ looking to have both our front and side porches redone - stairs, railing, etc, but would like stone. Who would I contact for quotes? Thanks in advance!

Ok everyone, please weigh in. This is our current National Grid bill.

We have one AC window unit in our bedroom (that is also new and energy efficient) and is only on if it’s hot at night or when the baby naps. We have a pool pump running, and otherwise are pretty conservative with energy.

Like… what????? 🥵

An incredible day at Niagara Falls, our annual trip with my sister and her family. Somehow, it’s how we have tracked time, watched our boy grow, and this year, seen our family finally complete.

So grateful.

Happy 4th a day late - it was the kind of day that you lose track of the outside world, misplace your phone (and find it again when the perfect moment requires to be captured) and otherwise relish in the sights and sounds of being surrounded by the people you love most in the entire world. One of my favorite 4ths of all time. A beautiful day was had by all ❤️💙

And kudos Scott Robinson for this shot 😘

So grateful to be surrounded by several of the best dads in the world 💙 Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there, especially our own.

And to you, Scott, you are in a league of your own and you have blown me away as a father to our boys. So unbelievably grateful for you, my dear.

Going through my digital life and stumbled upon this gem. It’s this man as a father in a nutshell. Patient, involved, creating new things and memories all at once with our sons. I never thought I wanted to be a mother, but Scott was born to be a father. So grateful to have a front row seat as their relationship unfolds and evolves. Oh, happy last day of March, friends.

Well well well, look what I found ! This was before we were parents and could be up to no good, 24/7. Now how soon will Roux be out doing this once he sees this photo?
Hey friends - go make some crazy memories this week. Life’s short, play in the puddles. Happy Monday, all.

All I can hear is the line in Sweet Home Alabama: “You have a baby. In a BAR.” 🤣 To be fair, Roux was raised at the Shirt Factory, and it’s obvious every time we go out on a date. We haven’t left the house much in 12 weeks, but we had our first family date with Beau at and my heart was so, so full watching all 3 of my guys at dinner. If there is anything and I know how to do, it’s date night. They just look a little different now and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Happy March, friends.

One of the best and craziest things we ever did was spend 5 years at the helm of (2018-2023), and we are so proud of bringing craft cocktails, boozy brunch, and more to that space. But we are equally grateful for prioritizing our role as parents and handing it back over to Andrew and Richard, the best of men and some of our dearest friends. Now that they are reimagining the Shirt Factory bar space, we could not be more thrilled and excited for what’s in store there, as it obviously outgrew what we started way back when. But we did have to sneak in to get one photo as a family at the bar before we await the next iteration. It’s going to be STUNNING, knowing how their vision always turns out ( , anyone? 🙌🏻) and in a few weeks we will grab a new family photo in the renovated space. Cheers to the end of a chapter and the start of the next!

Happy one month, Bowen. One month of memorizing every tiny, perfect feature only to realize that it has changed by the next day. One month of listening to your soft sounds, your grunts of discontent, and the easing of your cries that moment I hold you again. I will never forget the velvet of your newborn skin, the way your fingers cling to mine, or how you are happiest when we are cheek to cheek - especially in the early and dark hours of the night.

Ha!! And to think I never wanted to be a mother. Love you, baby Beau. And his introduction, now on the blog. https://inadcminute.com/2026/01/introducing-bowen-thoreau.html
