Vont 2-Pack LED Camping Lantern
This lantern was a godsend! As someone who is constantly adventuring, whether that be long car rides, camping, hiking or exploring, this lantern literally does it all. Its compact design makes it fit in your backpack for easy access but don't let its size fool you as this sucker is BRIGHT! The LED lights make this little lantern the best option for a tent as its small enough to not worry about hitting your head and its brightness will make it feel like day!
Along with being an asset to camping I also keep one in my car in case of emergencies which came in handy as I had to help a friend jumpstart her car at 8pm in the cold rain and wind in the pitch black! I honestly don't have enough nice things to say about this lantern other than I won't be using any other ones after finding this one!
For size comparison I have included a picture of my little 8 pound dog standing next to it! (And another photo for the cute factor)!

Vont 'Spark' LED Headlamp Flashlight
Affordable, Sustainable, Bright and Compactable
A little while back I got some camping lanterns from this same product and was excited to try out another. Similar to the lanterns the product came with two headlamps and batteries, making these awesome for weekend trips or if you are camping with a friend. They are also one of the brightest headlamps I have ever come across, (and after many camping trips and power outages I have used many!). These guys are going to be perfect for whatever occasion and are so cheap for the amazing quality you get. You can find them on amazon (click the button below the picture to be sent to the amazon page) or look them up by the company name. They have a lot of great affordable outdoor gear which was a reason I partnered with them since I am a recent college graduate and finding affordable gear for this quality is hard to come by! Thanks again Vont!
Delicious Jellies That Are Perfect for the Holidays
Tired of the same old cookie tray and pumpkin treats for the holidays? Try “spicing” up your holiday menu with some jellies. Take a look at these suggestions that are sure to tantalize your taste buds.
Christmas Jam
Christmas jam is a classic blend of strawberries and cranberries. It is a great holiday recipe for anyone, especially considering it takes only fifteen minutes to make! Preparing and making this jam will be a really fun and easy project for the entire family to enjoy, not to mention it is delicious. The cranberries give it that classic holiday taste, but the strawberries bring it home with the sweetness. The best part of the entire project is that most recipes call for a surplus in ingredients, which means that you can make up to roughly ten mason jars full of this jam. A great Christmas present is something homemade with character, and decorating and wrapping these mason jars can be a fun side project.
Cranberry Sauce
You can’t go through the whole holiday season without making cranberry sauce. So whether your family likes thinner, more liquid consistency, cranberry sauce, or jelly, everyone has to have it on their dinner table for the holiday season. The cool thing about today is that some genius somewhere invented the crockpot. The invention of the crockpot now allows you to make cranberry sauce, jam, or jelly with ease. What once was a long process that most people avoided by buying premade cranberry sauce is now eliminated. Of course, sometimes people want to be more adventurous and still have that holiday spirit. A great alternative to classic cranberry jelly is cranberry pepper jelly, which brings all the same sweetness, plus a big blast of spice.
Apple Jelly
When you think of the holidays, the first fruit you most likely think of is cranberries, but a close second has to be apples. When making apple jelly, you can incorporate several different flavors and fruits to give it that holiday feel. A popular recipe for this jam is packing it full of sugar, other sweaters, and cinnamon to give it that sugar apple feels and tastes, similar to apple cider. Also, you can combine fruits and give them a splash of lemon for a more citrus taste. There are so many creative ways to make apple jelly, and the best way to figure out the recipe you can call yours is through experimenting with different ingredients.
Flavored Butter
If you have ever churned butter before, you know that it is not fun. Even if you haven’t, you can most likely tell just from the word “churn.” Even though making butter isn’t fun, flavoring can be. If you have been to a grocery store in the past year, you most likely know of different plant-based kinds of butter and flavors. The cool thing about a nut or plant-based butter is that it isn’t as difficult to make, and it is so much fun to eat. For example, making vanilla pecan butter or apple butter is much easier than you may think, and it perfectly fits the holiday spirit.
