I love the Bass Shops and Cabellas! I want to say the same people own them, yes? I just went to Cabellas last week to buy one of those vacuum sealers for a gift. They are so nice and allow you to buy in bulk or if you receive a large amount of chicken or beef, you can portion it out nicely and freeze, allowing for fewer trips to the grocery or butcher shop.
The catfish was awesome! You really got a great shot of him. I love the displays there. The bears always look so huge! Well, they are huge! I have been to that bass shop on the way to my Shore House, I have to go over the Bay Bridge. :) It is an easy stop for me and besides, I love that store! I am so pleased to have you post into the #MarketFriday challenge. I know this is an especially busy time of year, so I am pleased that you took the time. To be honest with you, it touches my heart that it has continued for so long, and yet, almost every single person gives me something fresh and interesting. Many people really thought it would run its course of markets and end, but, everyone that participates has proven this theory wrong. With Christmas upon us, I wanted to take a moment to say thank you. Thank you so much for helping make this challenge a success. Without your help, it would be just another place to post. It is people like you that have given it a recognizable name. Thank you! ❤
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers markets and eventually branching out and evolving over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but, it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact of what is these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.

Thanks so much Denise!! That sounds like an awesome gift and I think whoever gets it will be overjoyed to have it! I love being able to post for #marketfriday and wish I got out more often to do so. Lol.. we are in close proximity so mine are not so exotic but definitely relatable. I figured that you would've been to this precise store and you may well know where things are to be found better than me. I get lost in looking at all of the displays and I love it! I am not surprised in the least that Market Friday is still going as strong now as ever. You are a wonderful host too! Wishing you a beautiful and Blessed Christmas Denise!! 💕
