1. Father's Day is Sunday! If you still need a gift for the Dad in your life, be sure to look back at our Father's Day Gift Guide.
2. Peonies are one of our favorite flowers. Since they're only available for a small window of time in early summer, we are always looking for ways to help them last longer. These tips from Effortless Style Blog will definitely extend the life of your peonies!
3. Looking for a summer beverage with a little kick? Give Trader Joe's Organic Jalapeño Limeade a try! It's a little spicy, a little tart and great for a hot summer day. Also, in case you were wondering, adding a little silver Tequila takes this up a notch!
4. We often need a snack on-the-go and want something a little healthier than a handful of Goldfish crackers (although we do love those little guys!) One of our current favorites is Sargento Balanced Breaks. They're pre-packaged combinations of nuts, cheese and dried fruits that all clock in around 200 calories per serving. Our favorite flavors are Sharp White Cheddar-Cashews-Raisins and White Cheddar-Roasted Almond-Dried Cranberry. Ry swears by grabbing one of these before hopping in the car for her drive home so she's not starving by the time she arrives.
5. As you know, we enjoy listening to podcasts. Lately one of our favorites has been Pod Save America. Pals and political insiders Jon, Jon, Dan and Tommy take on all the politics of the week and tell you what you need to know. You can also check out Pod Save the World if you want a little international info. These two podcasts plus a new longer commute are making Ryan into a world class genius. Try them and see if they do the same for you!
6. Summer time means ice cream as far as we are concerned. For all the times you want something a little healthier than Dairy Queen, try Halo Top Creamery! Their delicious ice cream is low calorie, low sugar and high protein, so you don't have to feel bad about eating the whole carton! Ryan's favorites are Mint Chip and Salted Caramel and Jess can't wait to try Birthday Cake.
