    Cometeer Coffee

    Fair warning: I worked in the third-wave coffee industry and have invested heavily in our at-home coffee experience. I am always critical of "fast" coffee, but Cometeer has its place for the general coffee hobbyist or the higher-end aficionado. While they can take up some precious freezer space, the truth is that these pods are 10x the taste and quality of any other instant coffee that I've had so far. I personally love the light and bright options, which feature some of the top roasters in the country, like Onyx or Equator. Being able to try out different styles is a great option, and has led to me trying coffees from these roasters as a result. We try to always have a pack of these in the freezer for visitors or my parents, who don't feel confident grinding their own coffee and making an espresso or pourouver in the morning. Parents: If your time is limited and you only have 20-40 seconds to look away from your kiddo to make coffee, then this is the right fit! It was a god send in the first year of being a dad.

    You never knew you needed simple things for the house until you showed up at the store. We always leave MUJI wanting a simple, clean home... unfortunately, we end up going home with six new pens, a stash of cards and books, and at least two random but functional items for our bedroom or bathroom. You really can't beat the pricepoint; as affordable as IKEA but with a different aesthetic.

    Magic Spoon

    Great tasting cereal without all the added stuff. I didn't believe it was possible. My only challenge is its hard not to finish a box in 1-2 days, with a pricepoint that is hard to consume regularly. There is not a better cereal option out there; the peanut butter flavor was my personal favorite. The critiques about how it can make your mouth feel kind of weird are true, but it is not weird enough to keep me from more magic spoons in and around my mouth.

    Away

    People tend to believe that luggage bags are all the same and so spending a bit more on a better bag is pointless. This is NOT the case (get it?). I purchased an Away carry-on bag for my day trips and short weekends and it has gone through it the ringer; getting tossed around by checked bag employees, dropped down stairs, and stood on by my daughter as a stage for her big performance. Away bags are durable, not that cheap plastic that you find used in the Amazon bags. The USB charging battery is a fun addition although sometimes it creates issues with TSA that aren't necessary.

    The cult-like following is for a reason. When someone is wearing Santal or a similar fragrance, it owns the room in the best way possible; it creates memories in a way that you may not have expected from a scent. The fragrance is never overwhelming and the variety makes it possible for everyone to find something. I suggest starting with the sample bottles in small volumes before investing in a full-size bottle.

    Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams

    We've been obsessed with Jeni's since the early days of the Short North Columbus, Ohio scoop shop. The quality, the tasting profiles, and the overall experience make it my favorite ice cream on this planet (And boy have I tried a few). Not only do you get quality ingredients and a beautiful brand experience, but you get to know and love that its coming from passionate people who want to create the best of the best.

    Liquid I.V.

    Liquid IV comes in various flavors and is very easy to prepare. The hydration and electrolytes without a bunch of added sugar make it a great product to toss in the gym bag or prepare before heading to the courts. My wife is obsessed with the Strawberry flavor, although its a bit too creamy for my liking. They do a great job of masking the traditional saltiness of these types of drinks. It's one of the more expensive options but when we can buy in bulk, we do.

    Scrub Daddy

    If we could buy them by the dozen we would. This is 10x more reliable than a classic scrubbing pad or sponge. It lasts longer, maintains its shape, and has surface area to scrub tough pots and pans with ease.

    Juliet Wine

    Was eager to try Juliet as a disruptor of mediocre boxed wine. The brand, presentation, packaging, and experience is very good! Opened it up at a birthday party and it was the talk of the room. The Pinot Noir was just ok for the collective group, who drinks quite a bit of wine together. Overall, the experience was fantastic and I'll try a few of the other wines before dismissing it entirely, but I think I paid for the brand experience more than the quality of wine, as it left me wanting something else in my glass.

    Nostalgic sunscreen. I didn't even know I needed it but now I am hooked. Love the mineral lotion - works great for my pickleball adventures (seriously, Im a millennial but I love pickleball. I blame the 80's).

    More DTC wholesale partners to reduce ship costs. But until then, I'll be jamming to your retro tunes whilst shopping.
