THINGS WE LOVE
I remember seeing my dad with his huge headphones on in the 70s as he
would DJ in our home to his massive collection of LPs. I think it’s that memory
that makes me love this modern-day version so much. These high-quality
headphones not only sound and look great, but the company who makes
them, LSTN, restores hearing to a person in need through the Starkey
Hearing Foundation with every set sold. In less than two years, over
20,000 have been given the gift of sound and music. www.lstnheadphones.com

I didn’t realize how badly I needed to have one
of these until recently. Probably the only reason I
keep my phone charged is to communicate with
my husband and the people who help me with
my kids! When it gets under 20%, I start to get
anxiety. Apelpi’s Stem Gold is tiny, light and, hello,
it’s gold. With a 2200 mAh portable external
battery charger that adds 6 hours of talk time –
which hopefully takes me into to naptime so I
don’t have to worry. www.apelpi.com
