Growing up, we didn't travel much, especially not internationally. Even as a child, though, I knew I wanted to travel when I got older and could do things for myself. The kid who would wistfully spin and spin and spin a toy globe in my room is now an adult who can book trips as much as my schedule and budget will allow. There is a caveat, though. Growing up also means that I'm now cognizant of the environmental cost of traveling.

It all started when my beloved Apple AirPods just stopped working one day. No matter what I did, attempting to charge and revive them, they simply would not turn on, and I had to finally accept that they had a good run and it was time to put them to rest. RIP. That put me in a tricky predicament, though. I use headphones at least four to five hours a day, and I desperately needed new ones immediately. I knew I was due for an upgrade, but the AirPods weren't on sale at the time.

I recently received the Dyson Supersonic Nural as a gift, and I'm not being dramatic when I say I let out a gasp when I unwrapped it. This thing had been sitting on my wishlist for months, but I never thought I'd actually own it. It felt like someone had handed me the crown jewels of hair tools. (Thanks, Mom!)Fast-forward a few months and I can confidently say I'm obsessed with it. This isn't one of those fancy gadgets that ends up collecting dust in the back of a drawer or closet.

Last November, I celebrated Thanksgiving 1,100 miles away from where I live at my sister and brother-in-law's home in Oklahoma. It was quite the drive -- spread across four days there and back -- so I needed to be diligent about my packing list. Clothes, snacks and my 10-year-old Labrador were obvious must-brings. But there was another essential on my packing list: the iQ Sense smart thermometer from Chef iQ. I love hosting dinner parties, but I used to be scared to death to cook anything with meat.
