What G&F Parents LOVE and Want to Share: Recommendation Sunday

By: Grown and Flown

Every Sunday morning, hundreds (thousands?) of us sit patiently sipping coffee with our Amazon carts ready, waiting for the Grown and Flown Parents Recommendation Sunday thread to start.  Here’s a big H/T to Susan Cambest Houser, whose genius idea it was to create this phenomenon. It’s an amazing place to discover great shows to watch, snacks to buy, experiences, books…whatever we’ve loved and want to share with our friends.

Here are some of the top things people loved last week:

My family loved them. They had no idea they weren’t “regular” cookies.

The “changed my life” hair dryer that the group is RAVING about is this one – Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer & Volumizer. Hint: be careful of the high heat setting.

Chasing sunsets

Recommendation Sunday includes chasing sunsets

Especially when you’ve got your dog riding shotgun and he LOVES them, too.

TV: Watching Better Call Saul, especially if you loved Breaking Bad. More show to watch are   The Sinner, Atypical, Somebody Feed Phil 

This article from the New York Times about the “cult of thrift” 

And, if you are in New York, go see the musical Beautiful about Carole King. “I took my 20 y.o., my one and only, last evening and it may turn out to be her favorite, as well as already being mine, in a long string of musicals.”

Recycling plastic bags

Allbirds shoes are the very most comfortable shoes you will ever own.  For your daughter, your son, your husband, your mom and ABSOLUTELY for yourself.

From Trader Joe’s, Grapefruit Ginger Sugar Scrub, which YOU CAN BUY ON AMAZON! I had no idea that Trader Joe’s sell things out side of their store. But look for these two picks, Cilantro Salad Dressing, Cauliflower Gnocchi, next time you’re in Trader Joe’s.

Books : The Day the World Came to Town, The Woman in the Window, The Gift of an Ordinary Day, these banned (!) books,  

A cauliflower (!!) shake that tastes like a Wendy’s think and Frosty –  “a package of frozen Califlower rice, one Premier protein shake, and compatable flavor Torani Sugar free syrup. Blend in blender ( I have a Ninja). It will whip up to the consistency of a Wendy’s frosty and you’d never know it’s Califlower!!!” Hint: using a Ninja Blender may be a secret ingredient to get this smoothie just right.

Having trouble sleeping? (We all answer, YES!!, at once.) Red LED night lights are a thing that might help according to someone in the group who swears by them.
