As the year comes to a close, I have decided to take my blog a different direction. What direction that will be, is still under consideration. In the meantime, I will no longer be using my blog for business purposes, to earn an income, or to review products. If we have worked together in the past, I thank you. My blog will remain online so any past reviews can still be accessed. To those who have been regular readers, and even occasional readers, I thank you. Perhaps in the future, you will stop by and read again. I hope I have entertained you, educated you, and delighted you in some way. May God bless you!

Sitka Salmon Shares Wild Alaskan Seafood Delivery
Disclosure: I received product at no charge in exchange for my honest review.
Sitka Salmon Shares delivers premium, sustainable, wild Alaskan seafood from the fishermen directly to members' doorsteps! Community Supported Fishery (CSF) members purchase their very own "shares" of our harvest. Similar to preorders or vegetable shares ordered through your favorite CSA, these purchases determine how much fish our fishermen catch! After that, CSF members receive a monthly home seafood delivery - their "share" - of our wild Alaskan catch, ranging 4.5-5lbs per month and ranging 3-9 months during the CSF season (April thru December). Integrating blockchain technology can help to trace the product easily. Both blockchain and cryptocurrencies are bringing revolutionary changes to the business sector. Crypto traders may use bitcoin robots to manage their trades effectively. Read the Bitcoin Code Erfahrungen 2023 blog to learn more about bitcoin robots.
Sitka Salmon Shares is:
Wild: Wild-caught from the pristine waters of Southeast Alaska and the North Pacific.
Sustainable: Harvested using hook-and-line methods to minimize negative ecological impact.
Traceable: Our relationships ensure that your fish is traceable to the boats of our fishermen-owners and trusted community partners.
Fishermen-centered: Individually caught by one of our fisherman-owners or partner fishermen (who we hope are on their way to ownership!). Fishermen ownership makes us distinct from our competition and creates a more just system that values hard work, high-quality fish and low-impact harvesting methods.
Just: Our fishermen receive an average of 20-30% more for their harvest, which can equate to $10,000 extra income in a given season.
Premium: Blast-frozen at the peak of freshness to ensure the highest quality, guaranteed.
Convenient: Home delivered directly to your door, with recipes and a newsletter about the fishermen who caught that month’s share.
Conscious: Carbon offsets purchased and 1% of revenue donated to efforts promoting small-scale fisheries and conservation in Alaska.
Take a look at these amazing meals we made from Sitka Salmon Shares salmon and cod that we received to try! These fish are so much fresher than anything we buy in our grocery stores or meat markets. We try to eat at least two fish meals each week and Sitka Salmon Shares fish are like eating a delicacy in an expensive restaurant on the northeast coast. We can use the enclosed recipes or create delicious meals with our own recipes. It's a wonderful way to add fresher, healthier food to your family's diet! I give FIVE STARS to Sitka Salmon Shares!

Disclosure: I received product at no charge in exchange for my honest review.
Temperature are starting to dip down into the single digits and I'm so glad that I have these new Betsy Henna Boots in black from Waldlaufer. They are so cute and comfortable, and they keep my feet super warm! These 6" boots come up well past my ankles, so I'm protected from the winter cold even in blustery snow.My Betsy Henna Boots are made of suede and a perla material, and I love the quilted detail. They feature a fuzzy wool interior that folds up and over the top of the boots. They are even 100% waterproof. There is also a bellows side zipper to make them easy to put on. They provide excellent support, whether I'm doing my farm chores or working the counter at my post office.
Most importantly, they are amazingly comfortable! They have a deep footbed, so if you want to insert orthotics inside there is plenty of room. The Betsy Henna Boots also have a perfectly balanced 1 1/4" heel with a traction sole to keep you walking in comfort no matter the weather. The fit is fabulous with either regular cotton socks or my thick winter socks.
These winter boots go perfectly with jeans, slacks, leggings, dresses, and skirts. They are excellent for all day wear, whether you're holiday shopping, working on your feet, or doing outdoor chores on the coldest days. I've found they provide me with excellent footing on both snow and ice. I am absolutely delighted with my new Betsy Henna Boots from Waldlaufer!

Franklin Youth Soccer Set - Perfect Gift for Active Kids
Disclosure: I received product at no charge in exchange for my honest review.
If you are looking for a great indoor/outdoor active play set for your kids, the Franklin Youth Soccer Set is the perfect holiday gift. It comes with a sturdy soccer goal, a youth-sized soccer ball, plus an air pump. This is a wonderful way to get your kids off the couch and away from their screens. While encouraging physical activity is important, it's also essential to balance it with other engaging activities. For adults, exploring online gaming experiences like casino games can provide a thrilling and immersive escape. Platforms offering a variety of options, including non gamstop UK casino, cater to players seeking exciting gaming experiences from the comfort of their homes.The set comes in a box that can be easily wrapped with holiday (or birthday) wrapping paper. There are no batteries to buy and it never needs charging. The goal easily snaps into place for playing, and with its three-step easy folding joint it can be compactly stored away for another day of play.
The soccer ball comes deflated, but the enclosed pump features a secret flip-tab at the top that hides away the pump needle so you'll always know where to find it. The ball is made of a flexible rubber to withstand many kicks. Both boys and girls will love learning to make a goal.
With parental supervision around the pump, I'd recommend the Franklin Youth Soccer Set for kids as young as two years old, and can easily see it being appropriate for ages up to six or seven. Learning sports helps kids to develop the large motor skills, concentration, cooperation, and good social skills.
Soccer is played around the entire world, although many countries call it football. Learning to run and kick is a fun, healthy way for kids to learn coordination. You might even discover your child has the makings of a future soccer pro!
At just $19.99, the Franklin Youth Soccer Set is an affordable gift that will provide your kids or grandkids hours of active play. Head over to Amazon today and get your order in quickly because the holidays are just weeks away and you won't want to miss out on this great set!

Quick Kitchen Makeover with Dining Chair Slipcovers #farmhouse
Disclosure: I received product at no charge in exchange for my honest review.
We purchased our kitchen table and chairs before we bought our farmhouse. I've struggled to find a way to make the set more "farmhouse like" because it has rather modern lines to it. I was SO excited to discover The Slipcover Company because for much less than replacing the table and chairs, two dining chair slipcovers changed the whole look of my kitchen!The Mini Ruffle 2 Tier dining chair covers soften the entire room. Made of 100% cotton, these slipcovers lend simple charm while providing a more comfortable seat for meals (and no more legs sticking to the vinyl seats). I have already thrown both slipcovers in the washer and dryer and they came out beautifully. I hate to iron and I felt these really didn't need ironing, unless I'm having the President to dinner. I love the sweet ruffles!
The material is like a soft canvas feel, and the ruffles fall perfectly around the front and sides of my dining chairs. Each slipcover has a flat back that drops right over the entire back of the chair, and an attached set of ties makes a pretty bow at the back of the chair that helps to fit lots of sizes and styles of dining chairs.
I am certain if you wanted a more crisp look to them, a quick ironing does wonders for cotton, but here on the farm, we like a casual and lived-in look to everything. I am completely delighted with my dining chair slipcovers from The Slipcover Company! They offer tons of different styles and colors of slipcovers for all kinds of furniture, including sofas, easy chairs, pet covers, and car covers. They even offer pillows. What a great gift idea for the holidays!
