New Excuses to Get Out of Kids' Birthday Parties

1. “Hi! Thank you all so, so much for the invite! Please accept our heartfelt apologies that we won’t be in attendance at Leo’s Gourmet Bakery Junior birthday! It sounds like so much fun, but unfortunately Asher is allergic to nuts, eggs, flour, aprons, and measuring spoons, and it’s so sweet of you to ask, but even if the kitchen is somehow able to accommodate him, I am highly, highly allergic to driving to the town where my mother-in-law lives at 9 a.m. on a Saturday. Please send our best to the birthday boy!”

THE BEST

Sometimes it's not enough for our editors to be instantly impressed by a product. Sometimes we want to push it to the limits in one of our three labs, our own homes, or both to see how it holds up under pressure. We cook, we wear, we smear, we clean. We evaluate and tally. Then we give out the REAL SIMPLE Selects seal. When we put that label on something, that means it's among the 5,200-plus products we've formally evaluated according to strict protocols. On this list: some of our current faves. If you see something you like, scan the QR code and get shopping!
