Sunday Doozy Picks • Food • Fun • Travel • Deals (December 28th Edition)
The quiet stretch between Christmas and New Year’s is its own little season.
No rush. No rules. Just comfort, downtime, and a little dreaming.
Here are this week’s Sunday Doozy Picks — a mix of cozy food, easy fun, travel inspiration, and a few deals worth grabbing before January hits.
FOOD
Pumpkin Pie French Toast (Comfort Mode: ON)
See the Recipe
This is peak slow-morning food. Warm spices, soft bread, and that “one more bite” energy that makes weekends feel like weekends.
Perfect for:
- Lazy mornings
- Post-holiday brunch
- When cereal just won’t cut it
Doozy Tip: This is a great excuse to finally upgrade that griddle, nonstick pan, or maple syrup you’ve been side-eyeing on Amazon.
Upgrade-Your-Coffee Week
This is the week coffee gets you through… gently.
Think:
- A new mug you actually like
- Better creamer or flavored syrup
- A simple frother or reusable travel mug
Small upgrades make January mornings feel less aggressive.
Worth browsing: coffee accessories and comfort mugs are still quietly discounted right now.
FUN
Cozy Movie Nights (No New Releases Required)
This is prime rewatch season. Comfort movies. Background shows. Something you’ve seen a dozen times but still love.
Why it works:
- No decision fatigue
- Easy background noise
- Perfect for puzzle nights or couch lounging
Bonus: this is a great time to check streaming stick upgrades or soundbar deals before New Year pricing kicks in.
Puzzles, Cards & Low-Stakes Games
Not competitive. Not loud. Just something to do with your hands while you talk.
Ideal for:
- Family downtime
- Snowy afternoons
- Phone-free evenings
Worth it: puzzles, card games, and board games often dip in price right after Christmas.
TRAVEL
Dream Now, Book Later
Late December is perfect for planning without pressure.
Browse:
- Spring break ideas
- Summer getaways
- Long weekends you can look forward to
You don’t need to book today — just give future-you something to get excited about.
Travel gear tip: luggage, packing cubes, and travel accessories are often discounted before January travel season ramps up.
The Staycation Reset
Travel doesn’t have to mean far.
A night away.
A different coffee shop.
A local hotel with a pool or view.
Sometimes changing scenery is enough to reset your brain.
DEALS
Everyday Tech You’ll Actually Use
End-of-year deals are still floating around on:
- Headphones
- Streaming devices
- Small home tech upgrades
Why now: prices often bump back up in January.
Cozy Home Finds
Blankets, lamps, organizers, and comfort items quietly go on sale right now.
Perfect for:
- Winter nesting
- January resets
- Making your space feel calmer
This is a sneaky-good time to upgrade your home basics.
