Air Doctor- so far so good with my new Air Doctor. It came highly recommended.

I love this appliance! I replaced my toaster and toaster over for this one appliance and am loving the air fryer function. The kids and I air fry potatoes all the time. They are done in a flash and taste great! Last week I air fried falafel.

My family loves this vacuum. The attachments make it easy to transition form the floor, to stairs to the car. As my daughter says, "It's so rewarding to empty out the bin" after each lap of the house. Find a Bed Bath and Beyond coupon to bring down the price.

Got these outdoor lights at Costco. I'd wanted to get them for a while. Outdoor Covid gathers encouraged me to finally purchase them. Love them!

I was an Asics girls since junior high. Eight years ago I got planter fasciitis and it was suggested I try this new brand of running shoes called Hoka. They were really bulky looking (reminded me of moon boots), but I didn't care, because I needed the support. Once my foot healed I tried to go back to my old brand, but Hoka won me over. I'm been running in Hokas ever since. The good news is they look way better now:)

This well loved Hydro Flask has traveled, climbed mountains and over all been by my side for over five years. It has never failed me.

Insight Timer is my favorite meditation app. I love all the options: guided, music, live, yoga, etc. there is community around the world. You can join for $20 a year and/or on donation basis. I'm on 70 consecutive days. I love it!

This is the coolest leash for hiking! When your dog loves to run off leash and you quickly need to leash them up for oncoming dogs/hikers, all you have to do is grab the handle on the collar and the retractable leash comes out.

A friend recommended the ZeroWater filter and we love it. It has five layers of filtration. The site even says it can turn wine to water (sounds backwards:). I no longer even use the filtered water from the fridge. https://zerowater.com/

Home Grown Sustainable Sandwich Shop is literally home gown on Mercer Island. The two founders graduated form Mercer Island High school. I am thrilled they opened up shop in our little city. Not only is the food delicious, but I love all the thought that goes into sustainability, from the compostable packaging to the eco friendly building materials.

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, I'm looking forward to picking up treats for the family at Island Treats in downtown Mercer Island. I love that after many years of creating their magical goodies, they finally have a brick and mortar on the Island. https://www.islandtreatsnw.com/

If you are looking for fresh, delicious pastries in the morning or lovely wine for happy hour, this is your place! They provided the pastries for all the local guests at the Mercer Island Youth and Family Services fundraising breakfast. What a wonderful addition to our community.

Lara does the most whimsical, creative mostly outdoor photoshoots. If you are looking for unique, super fun kids or family photos, Lara is your gal. Check out her work at https://www.facebook.com/lara.buchanrandalls https://www.pinterest.com/lararandalls/_saved/

Very friendly and helpful.

Mioposto Mercer Island has done an excellent job adjusting to Covid. They set up a tent which will now compliment the 25% indoor seating. Darren the bartender, now manager is awesome!

I love having a healthy yummy option so close to home. The Banana Nut Butter Sano and Avocado Toast with Salmon are my favorite!

Shawn's Bakery is the Island's best kept secret! Visit Shawn for homemade soup of the day, pretzel rolls and yummy treats. My favorite of all is his fresh challah on Fridays.

Kerry has the cutest products here. It is also fun to see some fun Mercer Island specific gifts as well!

The Pumphouse is a Bellevue iconic dive bar. It's been around for over 40 years and still going strong despite the building and growth around the building.

The Roanoke is the oldest business on the Island, yet has never gone out of style. They have done an amazing job adjusting to the new restrictions. They build permanent "cabanas" in the back, each with a tv and heat. Meeting friends at the Rowey never gets old:)

Cindy Haba with Momentum Coaching is a wealth of knowledge and support whether transitioning back into the workforce or launching a new career. She offers weekly topic calls and has even written a book. Check her out.

The Fitness Outlet has a wide array of fitness equipment both in the store and online. They are very helpful and easy to work with.

Marisa is such an inspiration! She has built an amazing community. She is motivating, encouraging and vulnerable. Everyone should have a Marisa in their life. Covid my have limited in person meetings, but her online presence has been able to reach her full community near and far. Check her out, http://happyhourbymarisa.com/ and follow her on Instagram for daily motivation.

Ginny is amazing. She had worked her butt off to ensure her members and fellow Islanders have a safe place and community to workout especially during these crazy times when exercising and movement are so important.

Casey is incredible! She pushes you beyond your own expectations. Her livestream classes have been kicking my booty. Give it a try. You can find her classes on the Mind Body app.

I heard of the Tummy Temple a few years ago and finally booked an appointment last week. The space was very clean and calming. The staff were all very friendly. I look forward to going back.

I have enjoyed all the instructors I've had at Yogabliss. Some of who have become friends of mine. They have done a solid job moving to an online presence during the pandemic. I am happy to support a local business.

My whole family sees Dr. Dodi. We love him. He and his staff are on top of their game and they are always on time.

Our family has been with Dr. Schreuder for over 16 years. We became big fans right away when he visited our 32 week preemie in the NICU before we even had a chance to meet him in person. He has always been there to support our medical decisions for our three children.

Dr. Chorak and staff are very friendly and helpful. I also like the fact my kids are able to walk themselves to and from their appointments. Bonus!

I love Dr. Hali! She is all about getting on your way by not only treating you, but recommending exercises to keep you healthy (and not having to see your often). Not all chiropractors are created equal. Two thumbs up for the staff at Helix Sport + Spine.

Lisa practices 5 Element Acupuncture which is different from what I have done previously. She gets to know you and what's going on in your life before she starts your treatment. She ends up treating more than your initial concern. I always feel refreshed when I leave her office. https://www.lisaporad.com/

My furnace went out last March (just as Covid hit and we home all day, every day). All Climate was very prompt in their quote response and install. I was very happy with their service.

I LOVE Ridwell! Between weekly compost pick up, every other week recycling and now Ridwell pick up, I have reduced my landfill contribution to less than a kitchen bag a month AND my Recology bill.

Betty at Alta has been a life saver in a few parenting situations. She has shed light on alternative ways to handle parenting situations and they have worked! Schedule a free consult with her.

Although around for over 50 years, we just discovered Webbski this winter. Very reasonable priced ski lessons with passionate instructors and equipment rentals at Snoqualmie Summit Central. Despite "web" in name, all of Webbski's registration is on paper. Call to have information sent to you. https://www.webbski.com/

The staff is always helpful and friendly. We take Lucky there for her anesthesia-free teeth cleaning. I love that Lucky and I can walk there and she always leaves happy with a yummy treat sample.

Lucky (labradoodle) will vote for Doggissimo any day over the other the other hairdressers. They do a great job, but most importantly, they don't crate the dogs. Lucky feels happier and safer in that type of environment. She gets to roam around inside and out in the back while she is waiting her turn or pick up. https://www.doggiessimo.com/

Family owned for many years, MI Chevron has been the go to for my auto basics. I stopped by when engine light went on. They told me to drop off my car the next morning for diagnosis. They quickly determined the issue, had the part delivered to the station and I picked up my fixed car that afternoon. It was so easy and I didn't have to leave the Island!

Christine is awesome! I always leave feeling and looking refreshed.

Forey and Janie Duckett are the best. They are very attentive to their clients and a delight to work with.

I love having a local, family owned shoe store so close to home. The are very helpful and knowledgeable. I've had a number of shoes repaired there. They also sell my favorite running shoes, Hokas!

I love having a local book store walking distance from home. Customer service is excellent. If they don't have your book request in stock, they will order is and text you as soon as it arrives. They also have great games and gifts.

They will watch you run/walk and have expertise to get you in the right (and left:) shoes for you.
