Summer 2023 Must-Haves!

Here are some of our Summer favorites!

PaddleSmash – The perfect mix of Pickleball & Spikeball

The perfect mix of Pickleball & Spikeball, this new backyard game was created to get your competitive blood flowing. Play anywhere, any time of year (think portable Pickleball) – All you need is a flat surface. Enjoy in your backyard, at the park, at the beach, or while waiting for a pickleball court to free up! PaddleSmash is best for adults and teens (ages 12+). Starting at $199.99 – paddlesmash.com 

This next one is great for road trips and camping this summer!

No kid travel kit is complete without Fandex Kids: Space

The end of the year is marked by many things: cold weather, hot apple cider and, for many families, packing up the trunks of their cars to hit the road. Road trips are exciting, filled with the buzz of going somewhere new and the prospect of a vacation. Exciting, that is, for the first five minutes – until kids realize just how long they’ll be stuck in the car.

Every parent knows there’s nothing worse while traveling than a kid begging to get out of the car. But kids will be begging to stay in with Fandex Kids: Space (Workman Publishing; on sale January 3, 2023; ages 8-12; $12.99). The newest installment in a beloved, kid-friendly series, Fandex Kids: Space contains 50 illustrated cards, filled to the brim facts about the galaxy. The perfect road-trip ride-along, the cards in this deck are bound together, making them impossible to lose.

This deck is for everyone – those just discovering the galaxy, the space-obsessed, and everyone in between. Ever wondered where the word astronaut comes from, or what the Oort Cloud is? We’ve got you. A thoughtful introduction to space, with lively illustrations and text made for kids ages 8+, this Fandex Kids: Space sneaks education into pure fun. Instead of making rockets out of mentos and soda, these cards will have kids dreaming of the Lucy Spacecraft. You can find it here.

This next one is fun for teenagers (who are driving!) and for adults!

The One With The New Coffee. Photo courtesy of Central Perk Coffee Company

FRIENDS Fans and coffee lovers will love this coffee! Central Perk Coffee Company has come out with an artisanal line of quality coffees made with the highest quality premium Arabica beans delivered straight to your (purple) doors. These three new blends are now available at https://centralperk.com/

I was so excited to try these new flavors of coffee!

I had the opportunity to try all three and my favorite is “Oh.My.GAWD!” (Cold Brew Blend)

It’s a ground medium-body brew. This delicious coffee will be hard to break-up with and developed to be brewed cold, with notes of chocolate, butterscotch, citrus, and molasses. I loved that I could taste the chocolate and the butterscotch! Those are simply two of my favorite flavors ever! Perfect for a day of fun!

Also new to the line-up are:

“Gunther!” (Espresso)

A whole bean full body espresso, named in honor of our favorite barista with an unrequited love for Rachel. It features a bold acidity with a smoky, caramel taste.

“Moo Point” (Their First-Ever Decaf Blend…I KNOW!!!)

A ground medium body decaf brew. Some say that caffeine is like a cow’s opinion. It just doesn’t matter. It’s moo. And at 99.7% caffeine free, our Moo Point decaf can be enjoyed any time of day. I don’t usually care much for Decaf coffee but I actually like this one!

These 3 new blends join Central Perk Coffee Company’s current offerings:

  • “How You Doin’?” (medium roast)
  • “Pivot Blend” (medium/dark roast)
  • “We Were on a Coffee Break” (dark roast)

Existing and new customers alike, now have more options – all enjoyed best with FRIENDS!

If you are having a baby, a crib and a crib mattress are essential!

Sleep Ovation Baby recently launched the first-of-its kind, tech-advanced mattress designed to promote a safe and restful sleep for babies while preventing the physical and developmental risks of positional plagiocephaly (creates flat spot on back of babies head and often need to wear a helmet).  While most new parents are educated that “back is best” to prevent SIDS, an unintended consequence has been the dramatic increase of positional plagiocephaly.

New studies have shown significant correlations between positional plagiocephaly and cognitive development.  The brand designed the mattress to reduce pressure on the head while keeping the baby’s spine correctly aligned.

The new pricing is $279 for the Standard and $229 for the Mini.

Healthier Snack Option

Must-Have pantry item!

Chickpeas are a great substitution for losing weight and getting healthy in the new year because they are low in calories and high in fiber, protein, and essential vitamins and minerals. They are also a great source of plant-based protein, which can help support weight loss and overall health.

Chickpeas are versatile and can be easily added to a variety of dishes, making them a convenient and healthy option for those looking to make healthier food choices in the new year.

Festive Chickpeas have reinvented the chickpea, unhusking it to give it big crunch and even bigger flavor! All while being packed with protein and unbelievably goo food you!

Festive Chickpeas have ZERO preservatives, are non-GMO, soy-free, gluten-free and are 100% vegan to accommodate every snacker’s lifestyle. Aside from being plentiful with protein and nutritious, they’re exploding with flavor. Each pocket-sized bag is abundant in fiber, iron and potassium, has 10 grams of protein and no trans fats. The crispy chickpeas are dusted with ocean-fresh sea salt – making them an easy and equally satiating alternative to potato chips.

Think you’ll still miss out on your favorite sour cream and onion indulgence? Think again! Festive Chickpeas are celebrating snack time one step further with new fun flavors, including Sour Cream and Onion, Sweet & Smoky BBQ and Ranch – because who wants to live without such tangy, savory flavor in their life?

I had the opportunity to try these and I love the Sweet & Smiky BBQ flavor the best! I also took a few to my other job and they quickly disappeared! The Sour Cream and Onion was definitely the biggest hit with my coworkers!

Festive Foods is introducing chickpeas to a new generation of people making it crunchy, crispy full of protein and fiber; satisfying flavor.

Find Festive Chickpeas at www.feelfestive.com and available on Amazon.
