I bought YETI's insulated bowls, and now every lunch break is a picnic

We're halfway through the year, and my New Year's resolution? It's not going well. In 2025, I resolved to go for a long walk every day. I live in London, and I'm not sure if you've heard, but it rains a lot here. Plus, once I'm locked into work mode, it can be tough to tear myself away from my comfy desk setup and lace up my sneakers. But now the weather's turning, my resolution is looking up. I recently invested in YETI's Rambler Insulated Bowls, and they're turning my lunch breaks into a daily picnic. I've got some lovely green spaces near me, and the one thing that can reliably tear me away from my desk is a clear blue sky and a crisp summer salad. Here's why YETI's Rambler Bowls are my al fresco buy of the summer. Yeti's Rambler bowls keep their cool or hold their heat and are designed for food to go. The set includes a 1-quart, 2-quart and 4.5-quart bowl, but the one I use every day is the 2-quart bowl. I'm a chronic desk luncher, but YETI's new Rambler Bowls are luring me out into the great outdoors. Durable, well-insulated, and aesthetically pleasing, this trio is getting me through salad season in style. And since I made the splurge, I've been packing my iced coffee and salad to go, and treating myself to a lunchtime picnic in the local park on my work-from-home days. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The set comes in three sizes and features a nesting design for easy storage. My go-to is the 2-quart bowl, which is an ideal size for a big midweek salad, but the 4.5-quart bowl would be ideal for serving a crowd or taking to BBQs. A word of warning, though, while the lids fit snugly and securely into the stainless steel bowls, they do have a small hole, which means they're not leak-proof. I've been packing my salad dressing separately to avoid any spills. Plus, it prevents a soggy salad.

Roxbury film fest honors Black stories and history, and a West Coast blues fest for July Fourth

Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Portland, Ore., hosts the 38th annual Waterfront Blues Festival July 4-5 at Tom McCall Waterfront Park and on the Willamette River, featuring local legends and national bands, and the city's only sanctioned fireworks display (pictured here). Waterfront Blues Festival / Jason Quigley Advertisement THERE A West Coast blues fest for the Fourth of July The 'other' Portland — in the Pacific Northwest — celebrates July 4 with its 38th annual Waterfront Blues Festival, spanning two days and taking place downtown at Tom McCall Waterfront Park and on the Willamette River, which cuts through the heart of the city. The event, July 4-5, features more than 30 national artists and local legends including, among others, The Main Squeeze, ZZ Ward, The Motet, Allen Stone, Low Cut Connie, The Bayou Boyz, and Southern Avenue whose lead singer, Tierinii Jackson, performs on the soundtrack for this year's film 'Sinners.' Festivalgoers can jump on two blues cruises — or floating concerts on the Willamette — with Sail on Sister on July 4 (3-5 p.m.), featuring Sonny Hess's all-star gathering of Northwest Women Rhythm & Blues, guitar ace Taylor Newville & the Riders, and acoustic blues virtuosos Mary Flower and Lauren Sheehan, and Cruisin' to Memphis on July 5 (3-5 p.m.) featuring two bands and two solo acoustic acts that will compete for a spot at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis next January. The festival hosts the city's only sanctioned Fourth of July fireworks show, an epic display with fireworks launched from a barge on the Willamette (and set to music, even if it's not the Boston Pops). Get a one-day ticket ($40) or two-day pass ($75), or opt for a $200 VIP pass, which gives you early entry, top viewing access, and access to a private bar (with two free drinks) and restrooms; free entry for ages 12 and younger. Advertisement YETI has released its new Hondo Beach Chair, a sturdy seat that holds up to 350 pounds, folds flat for easy transport, reclines in four different positions so you can take a nap or stargaze, and has an aluminum frame and breathable UV-resistant mesh that's comfortable to sit on for hours. Mike Bagnuolo / YETI EVERYWHERE A comfy portable beach chair Beach season and summer adventures have finally arrived. If last year's favorite camping or beach chair didn't weather winter storage — or survive last year's UV rays — as hoped, consider investing in a new one that should last for years to come. YETI, maker of colorful insulated mugs of all sizes, has released its new Hondo Beach Chair, a sturdy seat that holds up to 350 pounds, folds flat for easy transport, has a padded shoulder strap for carrying, and weighs about 11 pounds — not the lightest chair, but worth it for its sturdiness and durability (it also makes a great last-minute Father's Day gift). The chair has an aluminum frame and breathable UV-resistant mesh that's comfortable to sit on for hours. It has two supportive armrests and a fabric cupholder, and it reclines so you can take a nap, even out your tan, or gaze up at the stars. You can even accessorize your chair: Attach the Hondo Gear Bag to the rung on the back of the chair and fill it with small items such as matches, car keys, bug spray, a book, or a s'mores chocolate bar that's unauthorized for child consumption (it's good to have your own secret stash). The chair isn't cheap — $300 — but it should last for many seasons (YETI offers a three-year warranty if anything within reason goes wrong). $35 gear bag.

My dad is impossible to shop for, but this YETI beach chair is the best Father's Day gift I've ever given him

My dad is famously difficult to shop for, which makes Father's Day one of my most dreaded public holidays. Every Christmas he gets pajamas, and when his birthday rolls around in February, I usually scrape the bottom of the barrel with some sort of novelty sock. It's not because I don't want to lavish him with gifts. Far from it. I'm dying to upgrade his rusty old lawnmower or treat him to a fancy new gas grill. But my dad, like many, is a practical and sentimental man. He doesn't want anything, and if he does, he'd probably prefer to buy it for himself. This Father's Day, however, I've found the perfect gift that I didn't even know existed. So dad, if you're reading this, look away now. Here are 3 reasons why the new YETI Hondo beach chair is the ideal gift for the dad who has everything. Available in two colorways and constructed from breathable, UV-resistant fabric, the YETI Hondo Beach Chair is an ideal gift for fathers. There's nothing my dad loves more than a trip to the beach. On summer weekends when I was a kid, he'd spontaneously pack the family into the car for a day by the sea, and they're some of our happiest memories together. But in recent years, he's switched from a beach towel to a chair, packing a rusty old camping seat into the trunk so he can soak up some rays in a more upright position. I confess, I didn't know beach chairs even existed until I heard of the Hondo, but its low-lying reclining position is truly ideal for beach lounging, and it has four reclining positions for maximum comfort. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. So long, rusty camping chair, there's a new seat in town. I don't think my dad will mind me saying that he'll find the wider dimensions of this beach chair especially comfortable. The top review on the YETI site is titled "a huge win for bigger guys," and I'm inclined to agree. The reviewer says, "I have embarrassed myself 4 times on a public beach in front of hundreds of people, breaking every beach chair I've bought until now. Thanks guys, this thing is 'me-proof'." The lightweight and durable FlexGrid fabric claims to support up to 350 pounds, and the seat itself is 26.5 inches wide. So it's a gift that most dads can enjoy. Despite its wide dimensions and sturdy construction, this thing is surprisingly lightweight, weighing in at under 12 pounds. Its removable strap attaches easily onto each side of the chair to allow you to pop it over your shoulder or even wear it cross-body as you make your way across the beach to find that perfect sunbathing spot. Because of its portable design, you could also happily take the Hondo camping or on fishing trips, where you might have a considerable walk from your car to your destination. The strap is even padded, so and I found it very comfortable on my shoulder.
