<div style="color: #454545; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I am a professional journalist who was looking for better coffee and became a homeroaster. I am a lifelong Midwesterner who is married and has two sons, one of whom has special needs.</span></div>

</b><span style="color: #454545;"><div style="text-align: center;">
I was in the habit of giving my coffee away and realized that was a bad idea. By selling it, the people who want it can get it. The money goes to a charity related to my older son's illness.</div>

</b><span style="color: #454545;"><div style="text-align: center;">
It's like choosing my favorite child. But you've reminded me that I need to restock. I order all my raw coffee from Sweet Maria's. They cater to homeroasters and provide a lot of information about their products.</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><b>**My Review**</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I was ecstatic when I found out that I would be doing a feature on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/daveshomeroast?ref=pr_shop_more" target="_blank">Dave's Homeroast Coffee</a>! Dave has really been a pleasure to work with. I absolutely love the fact that all of the proceeds from the coffee goes to a charity to fight Batten Disease, called<a href="http://www.bdsra.org/" target="_blank"> BDSRA</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What is Batten Disease?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Over time, affected children suffer mental impairment, worsening seizures, and progressive loss of sight and motor skills. Eventually, children with Batten disease/NCL become blind, bedridden and unable to communicate, and, presently, it is always fatal.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Batten disease is not contagious or, at this time, preventable.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; line-height: 18px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">So, when I opened my mailbox the day I received it I could smell the aroma through the package! It smelled great! I could even go as far to say that it smelled better than some well known coffee franchises, but I won't go into detail with that. </span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">The coffee that Dave's Homeroast sent me was the </span></span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Guatemalan Antigua Retana Red Bourbon. While I could have waited till the morning to brew some, I just couldn't wait! The aroma filled the house and when the classic beeping of my coffee pot went off, I took out like a bat out of (you know where..LOL).</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I added some Spenda and some Sweet Italian Cream to it...YUMMY!</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I <span style="color: #cc0000;">HIGHLY</span> recommend this coffee to you guys!</span></div>

It is made of non-woven fabric coated with a layer of plastic, creating a waterproof barrier between the toilet and the child. This product has the largest coverage of all seat covers on the market and for added convenience, each seat cover is individually packaged in a small, easy to open bag that makes it super easy to always keep one or two in a purse or a back pocket. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Have you ever had that nasty feeling when you use a public restroom...as if you just can't get the germs off of you? My niece Rebecca is just starting to be potty trained and when she has to go while we are out it can be an extreme hassle trying to hold her above the toilet so she doesn't touch it. Not anymore with many thanks to PottyCover! I think the quality and the design of the PottyCover is both unique and durable. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I think the product is great and I give it an A+++!</span></div>

A couple of weeks ago lightening struck our tree and a quarter of it fell down. We we stuck with the question of "What to do...?" The answer finally came to us...LETS MAKE A FIRE PITT!! Yay! Little did we know just how much work it would take. The picture above shows a little bit of our clean up effort. (We were piling up the brush into the back of my brother's truck to drag it to the other side of our yard)</div>

After selling jewelry right off my neck, I realized I could make a business out of my passion! So Exciting! I have always appreciated art/Fashion and have always loved crafting. My high school career was difficult, to say the least, as my mom, step-dad and I did not get along. I moved out the beginning of my senior year and worked three jobs and finished high school. I moved to Idaho, as soon as I graduated, with my high school sweet heart and started to pursue my jewelry making career in Boise, Idaho. I was very successful doing home shows and selling/consigning to shops.</span></span></span></span></span></div>

I started moving around, starting in McCall, ID and then to Chelan, Washington where I still have jewelry consigned. When I came back to Boise, ID in 2010 I met the man of my dreams, Josef. We married a few months before he left for Iraq with the Army. We have a beautiful two year old daughter together and I inherited three amazing step children ages 10-6yrs old! My daughters and I love crafting together and they are the reason why I branched out to hair accessories and all the other fun girly items RockyJae Designs makes:)</span></span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #454545; text-align: -webkit-auto;">The pink necklace has multiple different stones and Swarovski Crystals. The center piece is a faceted Jade stone wire wrapped with Sterling Silver wire and Sterling Silver chain. This necklace can be extended to whatever size needed, long or short, because of the chain that dangles from the clasp. It's retail value is $65. My wire wrapping is unique because I take the time to wire wrap a few times after making the loop to connect the bead, this makes it impossible to disconnect from the necklace/earrings i make (like most cheaper jewelry made). So when you baby pulls on your necklace, the loop connecting the bead cannot be opened and detach!</span>
