Make Dad's Day: 15 Great Gifts

 

It's almost time to celebrate the main men in our life. Today's edit of 15 fabulous ideas features something for every type of father. A mirror workout and golf shoes for athletic types, luxe accessories and stylish shirts for dapper dads, organic meat for the foodie and much more. Scroll down for shopping and inspiration.

Jonathan Adler Snake Backgammon Set
There are plenty of backgammon sets, but this is one of the best looking. And the outside of the box is as good looking as it is inside.

Perfect For: Dads who play games. Men who appreciate good design.

 Bose Quiet Comfort 35 II Wireless Bluetooth Headphones
Give Dad the quiet time he longs for. He will bob his head to his favorite tunes, listen to a game, or just tune out! These are the best.
Bose  or   QVC (pay over three months)

Perfect For: Rockstar Dads, Sports fans

Lord Jone CBD Body Lotion
A wonderful product that I actually use, thanks to Mollie. The grapefruit scent is fresh and clean. Easy to use and eases pain.

Perfect For: Any dad with an ache or pain.

Bocce Ball Set
Gift this set to dad, but the entire family will love it. It's good looking and portable.

Perfect For: Dads with game!

Scotch Infused Toothpicks
If Dad or Granddad is a scotch drinker, and enjoys a toothpick moment after a meal, this is an unexpected treat. Also makes for a good host gift.

Perfect For: Scotch drinkers

Barbour Rothbury Hat
Men's hats are really expensive. This hat features great style for less than $75. You can use your Amazon Prime account for free shipping.

Perfect for: Dapper dads. Bald men

Weathering Steel Pular Chiminea
Rustic relaxation. Love the design of this structured fire feature. 

Perfect For: Men with a patio or backyard.

Maui Jim Sunglasses
The only shade that you should be throwing your father, is that of these cool and creative sunglasses. From classic aviators to readers, there is a style for every dad out there.

Perfect For: Dads who spend time outdoors

S'Well 25 Oz Water Bottle
A great all day water bottle for anyone, but these colors are very man-friendly. And we will never tell if there is a secret batch of gin and tonics in there!

Perfect For: The Dad who needs more hydration. 

The Mirror
Gift Dad with the nearly invisible home gym that transforms less than two feet of wall space into a cardio class, yoga studio, boxing ring, and so much more. It's an instant workout for Dad, and it is cooler than cool.

Perfect For: Active dads, the workout fanatic

Fatboy Hammock
Give Dad some "me time" with the most comfortable hammock I have ever seen. It's available in over 12 colors. Ships for free. What man wouldn't love this?

Perfect For: Dads who work hard and need to relax

MLB Sporty Apparel 
If Dad is a baseball fanatic, he will love this gift. He can cheer on his team with Peter Millar style.

Perfect For: Major League Baseball fans

Fairway Footware
It's hard to beat Cole Haan shoes for comfort and style. These performance shoes are both stylish and practical.

Perfect for: Duffer Dads

Baird McNutt Irish Linen Shirts
I love a man in a linen long sleeve shirt, with the sleeves rolled up. It's such a handsome look. Much better than the average tee. You'll find a big selection of colors, but this "Ink" shade is 
really striking.

Perfect For: Dapper Dads

Grass Fed NY Strips
For dads that deserve the best and love their red meat. Aged for at least 21 days, well marbled, and USDA Organic. No hormones or antibiotics. Tell Dad that dinner is on you this year!

Perfect For: Dads who love red meat but want to be healthy.

Saturdays At Shop This

 

It's here! The Memorial Day long weekend, and it is jam packed with notable events for my family. There's birthdays galore - my sister's, sister-in-law, and nephew's. "Mr. Shop This" and I will celebrate a special anniversary today. The weather is not cooperating at all! I do hope that you have sunny skies ahead. Enjoy these shopping links.

It's also National Sunscreen Day. You'll find some excellent mineral and chemical free sunscreens in last weeks' post,  Here Comes The Sun. 

Everyone knows this is the best shopping weekend of the year. Be sure to check back on the post: All The Best Memorial Day Sales. So many new links and codes have been added.

A Memorable Memorial Day Feast: One King's Lane has put together a wonderful edit of tips, table settings, recipes and entertaining essentials. 

If you could press escape right now, where would you go? Santorini, the Hamptons, Malibu? Funny enough, I would go to NYC. But if you are traveling somewhere warm, Moda Operandi's packing list for Summer is so good.

Vitamin C: The Miracle Ingredient for Brighter Skin. Adding Vitamin C to your routine is said to give you both instant and long term results. It's a good article with high quality product recommendations.

One of my favorite sale finds are Rifle Paper's  Bent Birch Trays. They are laminated and lovely for outdoor entertaining. With 25% off they are priced right as gifts, too.

Something new from Beekman 1802: CBD Goat Milk Soap for face and body. My favorite bar of soap just got better! I am hoping for a sale yet this long weekend.

Anthropologie is offering an extra 40% off Sale prices. There are some great styles to be had like this casually chic maxi skirt for about $60. Love all of the colors! The Lexi Color Blocked Cardi is 
great, too.

Foodie Friday: Best In Burgers!

 

This roundup of 12 incredible recipes give the basic burger a fresh new twist. Life is simply two short to throw a store bought frozen patty on the grill. This Memorial Day and beyond, try thinking outside of the bun. Just imagine what blueberry BBQ sauce, smoked mac and cheese, or artichoke pesto could do for your burger. The possibilities 
are endless. 


Bruschetta Burgers
These tasty burgers get their name from a bruschetta mixture of tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and fresh basil. Then it is all topped off with a balsamic glaze! If you love tomatoes, you need to click the link and look at the rest of the pictures. You'll be running to the kitchen.
I promise.

Blueberry BBQ Brie Burger
Don't blanch at the idea of blueberries on a burger. I just made turkey breast burgers this evening with blueberries "in" the burger. And the sweet with the tangy sauce makes for a very balanced flavor profile.

Blue Cheese Stuffed Portobello Burgers
This is my kind of burger....no meat.  It's all topped off with grilled corn and crispy shallots.

Caprese Burger with Artichoke Pesto Sauce
This meal on a bun is packed with fresh mozzarella, basil, and tomato. Then it is topped off with a balsamic glaze and a pesto mayo sauce. YUM!

Lobster Burgers w/Browned Butter Lemon Aioli + Basil Corn Salsa, Bacon ‘n’ Avocado
That title is a mouthful! And I can't wait to get this recipe in my mouth. The lobster demands a good bun, too, like brioche or pretzel bread. 

Quesadilla Burger
Now this is interesting! This no bread eating girl just might cave in for these crispy tortillas. I will take one with everything on it. Extra sauce please!
Will Cook For Smiles


Mediterranean Turkey Burger
Oh my goodness! This burger is packed with flavorful elements like fresh parsley, feta cheese, and a creamy tzatziki sauce. Make it healthy by using ground turkey breast. On my list!

Mexican Green Chili Veggie Burgers
This burger is bursting with flavors and zero meat. It is kept together with a small amount of tortilla chips. How interesting.

Pastrami, Smoked Mac and Cheese Burger
Talk about a burger with everything on it! This one is loaded. Make this up for a hungry crowd.

Parm Style Chicken Burgers
When you are in the mood for Italian. Grated onion adds the moisture. I might add that I caramelize my onions and then mix them into the chicken mixture. Looks yummy, right?

Grilled Burgers with Meyer Lemon Butter
This recipe is thrown into the mix for the unusual addition of lemon butter. Look out Culver's, there's a real butter burger in town. Adding a pat of lemon butter in the center of the burger is said to make it extra tender with a touch of citrus flavor. Sounds good!

Greek Roasted Cauliflower Burgers with Pan Fried Feta and Tomato Olive Salsa 
These burgers are meatless and actually healthy if you take away that yummy pan fried feta. But who wants to do that? I think this is the most interesting of the recipes featured.

Saturdays At Shop This


My busy week is ending on a bit of a stressful note with a funeral and a long drive today. But I sure look forward to some bubbles, both in my tub and my glass, late tonight. Before we all get going with weekend plans, here are some quick links that are worth clicking.

It's rosé season and I found some highly rated bottles at Wine.com. Not all of them are expensive. If you are new to that website, you can save $20 on $100 orders. Use Code: NEW2021

Can't even believe that it is almost Memorial Day! Tuckernuck's Memorial Day edit is filled with festive attire. No worries, you won't look like a flag, but there are some fun flag glasses.

Take a look at Etsy's Outdoor Sales Event. Get prepped for the season and bring your alfresco ideas to life with up to 20% off bold, sunny finds. Make sure you look at the Outdoor Lighting section. You'll find very unique ideas. Rare that Etsy has a sale.

Hope you enjoyed my Disposable Dishes, Etc. edit this week. For even more alfresco dining tips, head to One King's Lane for this perfect post.

Shop two darling sandals at Jack Rogers: The Giselle Bow Sandal in six shades, and the Embroidered Martini Sandal. It's perfect for Happy Hour!

Ordered this Limited Edition Nars Bronzer last week. It's gorgeous. I am so happy with my decision. I will be using it on my eyes, as well.

If you love Philosophy Bath, Body & Skincare, it's a great weekend to stock up and save up to 30%.
Use Code: SAVEMORE

Bright This Way: The bright edit at Neiman Marcus is just what I need for summer. It's fun. Maybe you need it, too.

These Pajama Pants by Retrofete are so wonderful (and expensive)  they need to be worn out and about.

With the price of candles and home fragrance, it's hard to commit to one, without experiencing the aroma first. Lafco makes it easier with their  Lafco’s New Fragrance Finder for your home.  Also consider their Discovery Trio. It's a great buy. I love mine.


May your glass be at least half full this weekend!
