MODERN TOOL BOX OK, maybe it's a little bit girly, but a shot of color just might motivate your man to get to your honey-do list. (Or inspire you to DIY). If the stripe is a bit loud, this smart toolbox also comes in a subtle and manly woodgrain. $46 |

ART and IDEAS
New Haven
This year's talent line-up at New Haven's famed festival is, as my daughter would say, SICK. On my shortlist: Buckwheat Zydeco and Slavic Soul Party on 6/13 (free concert on the green); alternative rockers turned kid-centric songsters They Might Be Giants on 6/14 (free); soul and gospel legend Mavis Staples on 6/20 (free) and Mark Morris' seminal work, Dido & Aeneas on 6/25 and 6/26. Too much to mention here; go directly to the website and make your plans.

116 Crown
New Haven
And while you're there, eat here. Maybe this is an imaginative bar with great food. Or a version of the small plate restaurant with brilliant cocktails. No matter. Order the Piyor (zubrowka bison grass vodka, white lillet, cointreau and lemon juice), or any of the hand mixed and fresh-squeezed libations. Eat a grilled shrimp slider, the fantastic fries sprinkled with parmesan and truffle oil, or the roasted organic chicken happily nested on a bed of lemony spinach or all of the above, as we did. Can't wait to go back.
