Sure a drink in a tall, clear glass looks pretty, but that cold drink will be tepid in about an hour on a hot day.
I have a few insulated tumblers, and this one from Yeti will be a fine addition to my collection. This 20 oz., double-walled, vacuum-insulated tumbler will keep your drink hot or cold for hours. It features a splash-proof and spill-resistant lid for adventures on the go. It also comes in a rainbow of colors so you’ll find the perfect one.
Yeti’s Rambler Tumbler is $35 at REI and also available at Amazon.

Continuing the theme from the morning about how life gets easier once kids are 5ish, we’re finally having a dropoff playdate this weekend and I could not be more excited!! My kid looooves play dates and wants them all the time, but I’m a socially awkward introvert who really dreads hours of small talk with a mom I don’t know. I expect the kids (almost 5) to play with minimal supervision, but of course I’ll be around if someone gets hurt or there’s a conflict they can’t resolve. Is there anything I should ask the mom when she drops her kid off?
I did not get the Yeti hype at all, but I went on a boat trip last month where everyone got their own Yeti for the week, and I immediately became a convert. I now have two, one for hot drinks and one for cold. I love that I can set them on wood and not have to worry about water or heat damage.
