For the dads who want to deliver on the grill, but without E.coli, no worries I have you covered.  Yummly Smart Meat Thermometer with its own app gets you to the end game of cooking your meat exactly to the right temperature. The wireless thermometer allows you go watch sports within 150 feet – as the app will send you an alert when the meat is done or take advantage of the presets for fish, poultry, or steak. Sleek charging dock included.


Full disclosure! After showcasing my love of these headphones so much Bose sent me several new pairs of the Bose 700s.

Let’s face it, everyone needs a good pair of headphones and whether dad is on the go, traveling, or just needs some  quiet time – meet one of my go-tos: Bose Quiet Comfort II’s.  These headphones provide not only great quality sound,  they are also very  comfortable and  have the  optional noise cancellation which is beyond a must when traveling. The headphones include 20 hours of battery life then charge for 15 mins to get 2.5 more hours of use.  I have purchased  over ten pairs of these as gifts over the years and they never disappoint.


My guy friends have a high bar for their hair pomade. I have about 20 hair products myself so I get it.   This pomade duo was created by the literal rock star Matty Mullins, who is the lead singer of Memphis May Fire, a Christian band. This duo pack features the matte pomade and the premium pomade in both classic and natural shine, which provide strong all day hold. I purchased three packs and due to rave reviews am putting in another order for gifts!


Growing up a beach gal may I be the first to tell you that turf wars and gear snobbery is a thing the more you adult. My sister purchased one for her husband and it has been worth every penny. I had to pick up a bunch more for our family beach trips. Comfortable, durable and like everything Yeti creates-- it was neurotically overbuilt. In speaking with the Yeti team since their infancy trust me they obsess over design and durability. Nice pack-away frame, cup holder and carry bag.

*Note there are two chair options, we have the Hondo but if you are looking for something a bit more portable the Trailhead is lighter by 3.2lbs.


Dad deserves a great massage to de-stress on Father’s Day and beyond. Hyperice’s HyperVolt is a trusted go-to and used by some of my dear friends who  are top elite athletes. Loosen up those muscles, promote circulation and just enjoy the “rapid percussion.” The cordless vibration is available in three speeds and five different head attachments. Three hours of continuous use with rechargeable battery. Note – if looking for an even more portable option check out the Hypervolt GO.
