Magpie has been featured in Daily Candy, Travel + Leisure, Condéast Traveler, Philadelphia Magazine, Where Magazine, Zagat, Yahoo, and Thrillist among others. Holly lives in Philadelphia.

Her writing collaborations have included The Bob’s Red Mill Cookbook, The Latin Road Home with Iron Chef Jose Garces, and Indulge, with Real Housewives star Kathy Wakile. Miriam lives in New Jersey.
