Zip-n-go Blanket

How about a good summer read and a blanket to spread out on? Daily Grommet recommends "The Middle Place" by Kelly Corrigan, a moving memoir told in an anecdotal style that will have you crying and laughing -- maybe even on the same page!  Plan to blitz-out with this page-turner on your Zip-n-Go blanket, a 5' x 6' cushy blanket with a built-in tote bag and pocket. It’s perfect for a summer concert on the lawn, an impromptu supper on the grass, or hunkering down on your favorite beach.

    Hi Jessie and Angela, thanks for your feedback. At Daily Grommet, we put together videos and stories based on our reviews of new or innovative products we've researched. We like to find businesses - often family owned, or "little-guy" businesses - that we think have hit on a smart idea and then support them by telling others about what they do. We're not paid to do these reviews, but we do link you to the sites of these companies. All of these products have a great story behind them -- we invite you to click on the links and check out the people, and the stories, behind these products. Happy summer!
