If you’re go out on the water, take precautions to protect Florida’s native sea cows.

Hey world, how’s it going? Bit of a soft life update:
Back in the fall of 2024 I decided to shift gears to focus on volunteer work and a few other personal projects. One such venture was an unofficial cookbook with 150+ of my grandmother’s favorite recipes that she kept in a tin box.
