I thought I’d share some cool things I’m a fan of, in case anyone on the internet is interested:
Thing | Notes | Price |

It’s go great to get a 5 minute news updates, and we listen to so much more music now thanks to the Echo. If you have some nice speakers laying around, buy the little Echo Puck and plug them in | $50 |

This might sound ridiculous, but I love being able to jot down ideas and to-do’s while in the shower | $8 |

Without this visor-mounted Bluetooth speakerphone, I probably would have already upgraded my car — so it’s saving me a car payment every month — thanks Jabra! | $100 |

I enjoy cold-brewed, iced coffee year round, so I’m a huge fan of this pitcher that lets me make a few cups of strong cold-brew right in the fridge (they say I’m supposed to dilute the result with water, but that’s just less caffeine) | $25 |

I’m a fan of these reasonably priced Bluetooth earphones for exercising/running — they’re super-stable in my ears and easy to use | $38 |

I got some Air Pods as a gift, and I wasn’t sure I would like them. But they came at a perfect time in my life — I’ve been really enjoying them as I catch up on audiobooks and podcasts while rocking my newborn daughter, and they’re great for long conference calls | $160 |

Mission Belts are great — I saw them on Shark Tank, and I’ve been a fan since. They’re easy to resize (you can cut the leather by the belt clip with scissors to resize them) and you’re never in-between sizes because it used a latch (like roller blades) instead of holes | $40 |

This book has saved us so much money — it’s like Consumer Reports for baby stuff, but cuts to the chase by telling you the premium recommendation and the best value recommendation right away (reminds me of TheWireCutter.com‘s approach to reviewing everything else) | $12 |

The Kindle Fire isn’t as slick as an iPad, but it’s great for reading Kindle books with color figures/graphics; and it’s a decent movie watching, email checking, web surfing tablet. It’s worth the upgrade from the 7″ one to the 8″ one. | $80 ($50 if you catch it on Prime Day) |

Yes, this is ludicrously expensive. But it’s an amazing standing desk (and thank you WireCutter for the great review referral!) | $600 (I know it’s crazy) |
