Shop here for things I use or have used and endorse.
Hobbies, events, travel, and general fun things all require stuff to pull it off. Not always a lot of stuff and not necessarily expensive, but you need things. The biggest problem is there are few sources to trust for honest advice. Word of mouth is the best. People are now paying people on amazon to write positive reviews. So, who do you trust? Me. Items on this site are things I endorse, when I explictly say I do. This list will grow as my posts grow. When I write and things come to mind, I will add them. Some things I believe are must have items, and I will note that in the product listing. Some are nice to have. Most are not that important but worth considering because in the end, you decide what is important.
