  46. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Ocean Casino Resort isn&#8217;t just another casino. It&#8217;s the Jersey Shore&#8217;s premier beachfront destination, with ocean view suites, two new Stephen Starr restaurants, a private pool oasis, and summer celebrations that rival any East Coast resort. Here&#8217;s why Ocean should be your next getaway.</em></p>
  47. <h2>Summertime at Ocean Casino Resort</h2>
  48. <p>After falling in love with <strong><a href="https://onbetterliving.com/holiday-luxury-at-ocean-casino-resort/">Ocean Casino Resort during the holidays</a></strong> last winter, we couldn&#8217;t wait to see what summer would bring. We just returned from an incredible long weekend, and Ocean in summertime exceeded every expectation.</p>
  49. <p>Most visitors to Atlantic City focus on the casino floor, but Ocean proves itself as a true resort destination first.</p>
  50. <p>Where winter brought cozy <strong><a href="https://onbetterliving.com/holiday-luxury-at-ocean-casino-resort/#The_Holiday_Social_Suite">Holiday Social Suites</a></strong> and festive <strong><a href="https://onbetterliving.com/holiday-luxury-at-ocean-casino-resort/#Jingle_Bell_Bar_A_Holiday_Popup_Experience">Jingle Bell Bar</a> </strong>cocktails, summer offers something entirely different: <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/summer-fun-food-at-ocean-casino-resort/#Stephen_Starr_Debuts_at_Ocean"><strong>Stephen Starr&#8217;s two brand new restaurants</strong></a>, elevated poolside cabanas with ocean views, and a relaxed beachside vibe. Ocean provides  a complete resort experience that goes way beyond gaming.</p>

  53. <p>Our newly decorated corner Studio Suite on the 25th floor gave us front-row seats to Atlantic City.</p>
  54. <p>Floor-to-ceiling windows opened up sweeping views of the ocean, Steel Pier with its Ferris wheel, the inlet filled with boats, and the boardwalk below where people strolled day and night. From sunrise to sunset, the scene outside never stopped changing and quickly became our favorite part of the stay.</p>
  55. <p>Each morning we enjoyed coffee from the in-room Keurig while watching the sun come up over the water. In the evenings, sunset was just as spectacular.</p>
  56. <p>The suite itself felt like a true retreat. It was spacious and bright, with power shades when we wanted to unwind. A cozy couch gave us another spot to sit back and enjoy the views and the mini fridge was great for leftovers.</p>
  57. <p>The king bed was super comfortable, the room was clean and fresh, and the shower was one of the best we have ever experienced. Large enough for two, with jets from the top and sides, perfect water pressure, and intuitive temperature controls, this was the Holy Grail of hotel showers. After days in the sun and salt air, stepping into this shower felt like visiting a spa.</p>
  58. <p>I especially loved stretching out on the bed after those showers, sipping coffee, watching TV, and still catching glimpses of the Ferris wheel turning, boats passing through the inlet, and the lively boardwalk below.</p>
  59. <p><strong>This corner suite provided everything we wanted:</strong> <em>comfort, style, and amazing summertime views.</em></p>
  60. <h2>The Cabanas at Ocean Casino Resort Are Worth It</h2>

  62. <p>If you think you know what a casino pool feels like, think again.</p>
  63. <p><a href="https://www.theoceanac.com/"><strong>Ocean Casino Resort</strong></a> has completely reimagined the experience with its adults-only pool deck, offering a serene, elevated escape that feels worlds away from the main pool and beach.</p>
  64. <p>No kids. No rowdy parties. Just calm vibes, ocean breezes, and a view that stretches endlessly across the Atlantic.</p>
  65. <p>We spent the day bouncing between a daybed and a cabana, and honestly, both were incredible in their own way. The daybeds are comfortable for soaking up the sun, sipping cocktails, and watching the coastline shimmer. But the cabana is seriously next level.</p>

  67. <p>The cabanas feel like your own private retreat. Think plush seating, shade when you need it, a TV, dining area, and a mini fridge stocked with complimentary water and soda to keep you refreshed. It’s quiet, intimate, and the views are unreal &#8211; parasailers drifting by at eye level, helicopter tours cruising the shoreline, and the iconic Steel Pier rides spinning in the background.</p>
  68. <p>Located away from the main pool area, the cabana zone has its own exclusive pools and a jacuzzi, reserved just for cabana and daybed guests. It’s like a VIP hideaway within the resort, and it never feels crowded or chaotic. Just mellow groups enjoying their own slice of paradise.</p>
  69. <p>Service here is top-tier too. Our server, Melody, was fantastic and kept the frozen cocktails flowing poolside all afternoon. We were in full vacation mode.</p>
  70. <p>And if you really want to treat yourself, you can even book a massage right in your cabana. <a href="https://www.theoceanac.com/experiences/exhale-spa-and-bathhouse"><strong>Exhale Spa &amp; Bathhouse</strong></a> offers a few different styles. Trust me, there’s nothing quite like a deep tissue massage with the ocean breeze rolling in.</p>

  92. <p>We dined at <a href="https://www.theoceanac.com/restaurants/chez-frites"><strong>Chez Frites</strong></a> on our first night. Walking in, the vintage French cinema posters covering the walls immediately set the mood. The bar area buzzed with couples sipping cocktails and we were seated in a burgundy leather booth that felt like it belonged in Saint-Germain-des-Prés.</p>
  93. <p>Our server Jacob provided outstanding service with excellent recommendations. Chez Frites quickly became our favorite meal of the trip. We visited Paris for our anniversary and had steak frites and moules-frites there, and this experience transported us straight back to those French bistros.</p>
  94. <p>Starr drew inspiration from traditional Parisian entrecôte restaurants where you could eat well and affordably, and he has brought that exact concept to Ocean.</p>
  95. <p><strong>Here&#8217;s what makes Chez Frites brilliant:</strong> The prix fixe menu keeps things beautifully simple. You start with mixed greens in white balsamic vinaigrette. Not fancy, just fresh and dressed. Then comes your choice of main course: prime steak frites, lobster frites, salmon frites, or salt baked celery root with black trumpet mushrooms for a plant-based option.</p>

  97. <p>There’s also a small ala carte menu where we started with the Scallop Crudo. Three large diver scallops served in the shell and dressed with lime, passionfruit, and hazelnut oil. Each bite delivered sweet, tart, nutty, and oceanic flavors that set the tone for our meal.</p>
  98. <p>For mains, we ordered both the steak and lobster to share. The steak arrived with an expertly grilled char and accompanied by a silver boat of béarnaise sauce. The lobster, a large South African tail, was tender and sweet. Its flavor was close to Maine lobster, a little firmer, and nearly twice the size. It was served with drawn butter and chimichurri. We wanted to order another.</p>

  100. <p><em><strong>But let’s not forget the frites.</strong></em></p>
  101. <p>Golden, crispy, perfectly salted, and unlimited. Our server Jacob mentioned people average two servings. We hit three without shame. They arrive hot, and just when you think you&#8217;re done, Jacob appears with &#8220;Would you like more fries?&#8221; Yes. Always yes.</p>

  103. <p>Dessert was profiteroles, three choux pastries filled with vanilla ice cream. Jacob brought a small pitcher of warm chocolate sauce to pour over them for a dramatic presentation. The passionfruit almond tart provided a bright, tangy contrast. Both were exceptional endings to a meal that captured authentic Parisian bistro magic.</p>
  104. <p>We stayed for nightcaps at the bar, not ready for the evening to end. The bartender made us New York Sours with egg white foam floating on top, a red wine float creating this beautiful sunset effect in the glass. The bar became our regular evening spot for the rest of the weekend.</p>

  107. <p>On our first morning, we headed to <a href="https://www.theoceanac.com/restaurants/sunnys"><strong>Sunny’s</strong></a> at 11 a.m. for brunch. Stephen Starr created the concept after sitting in the resort, looking out at the ocean, and thinking “sunshine.” That is exactly what you get. Eleven floors up, the space glows with morning light.</p>
  108. <p>Coffee comes in bright yellow mugs. It&#8217;s a small touch, but it instantly makes the experience feel happier.</p>
  109. <p>Our server Megan guided us through both the menu and the cocktails with spot-on suggestions, and she kept our mugs filled with hot coffee the entire time.</p>

  111. <p>We started with the lobster roll, overflowing with large chunks of lobster lightly dressed in lemon mayo on a buttery toasted Portuguese roll. This is what summer tastes like. The Maryland crab cake followed, all jumbo lump with almost no filler, pan-seared golden and served with remoulade.</p>
  112. <p>Then came The Elvis. This double-stack French toast is piled with peanut butter whipped cream, maple caramel sauce, sliced bananas, and bacon bits. It all works without being overwhelming. The peanut butter cream and French toast are lighter than you expect, while the banana, bacon, and maple pull it together. We love dessert for breakfast, and this one is fit for The King.</p>
  113. <p>We returned the next morning for simpler options. The Two Eggs Any Style came with crispy potatoes and bacon that started the day off right. The matzo ball soup surprised us on a summer morning, but those tender matzo balls in rich chicken broth with fresh dill proved comfort food has no set time or season.</p>

  115. <p>Their already famous Monkey Bread also needed to happen. These warm, soft pillows came topped with cinnamon butter and served with icing for dipping. Fun to share and even better with coffee.</p>
  116. <p>Sunny’s cocktails are just as memorable. The Spa Day blends Hendrick’s, aloe, cucumber, and mint into something that tastes like self-care, while the Tequila Sunrise Mimosa brings vacation vibes to any morning.</p>

  119. <p>On our last night, we dined at <a href="https://www.theoceanac.com/restaurants/amada"><strong>Amada</strong></a>, Chef José Garcés&#8217; Spanish masterpiece that we had discovered during our winter visit. The ocean views from the dining room are striking, especially at sunset.</p>
  120. <p>We began with the Chef&#8217;s Special Ceviche served with crispy plantains. For tapas, the portions were generous and easily shareable between two people. The heat from the spices hit immediately, the kind of burn that makes you reach for a plantain and then go back for more. Fresh citrus balanced the spice, while the crispy plantains added a satisfying crunch.</p>

  122. <p>Next, we enjoyed the albóndigas, lamb meatballs swimming in sherry and foie gras cream. The piquillos rellenos featured sweet roasted peppers stuffed with crab and topped with marcona almonds, delivering sweet, savory, and nutty flavors in harmony. We also tried the coca de costillas, a beef short rib flatbread that combines tender short rib, horseradish cream, crispy bacon, and arugula. The Amada empanada with spinach and Manchego was also delicious.</p>
  123. <p>By the time the Tarta de Santiago arrived, an almond cake accompanied by white chocolate gelato and a bright amarena cherry, we were blissfully full. We had planned to order paella, but after enjoying the tapas, there was simply no way. A return trip is now absolutely mandatory.</p>

  126. <p>The <a href="https://www.theoceanac.com/casino"><strong>casino at Ocean</strong></a> itself spans 135,000 square feet with modern design that feels more Vegas than old Atlantic City. We tried our luck with a few fun games, bouncing between slots and table games. The contemporary design with sweeping fabric installations and dynamic lighting creates an energetic atmosphere that makes gaming feel like part of the resort experience rather than the only focus.</p>
  127. <p>We spent evenings starting with cocktails at the Chez Frites bar or lobby bar before hitting the casino floor. But honestly, between the restaurants and pool, the gaming felt almost optional.</p>

  130. <p>Having experienced both seasons, Ocean masters seasonal transformation. Winter brought cozy Holiday Social Suites with hot cocoa stations and Christmas trees, the festive <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/holiday-luxury-at-ocean-casino-resort/#Jingle_Bell_Bar_A_Holiday_Popup_Experience">Jingle Bell Bar</a>, comfort food at <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/holiday-luxury-at-ocean-casino-resort/#Harpers_Breakfast_Worth_Waking_Up_For">Harper&#8217;s</a>, and warming cocktails by indoor firepits.</p>
  131. <p>Summer brings a completely different energy. Sun soaked pool days, Stephen Starr&#8217;s new restaurants, frozen cocktails with ocean views, and that laid back coastal atmosphere that makes Ocean feel like a true beach resort.</p>

  178. <p>If you&#8217;ve been scrolling through health and wellness content lately, you&#8217;ve probably seen some scary headlines about seed oils like soybean, corn, canola, sunflower, and cottonseed. Words like &#8220;toxic&#8221; and &#8220;poisonous&#8221; get thrown around frequently, but the truth is more nuanced than the internet would have you believe. Before you clear out your pantry, let&#8217;s take a step back and examine what science tells us.</p>
  179. <p>While you should definitely steer clear of certain seed oils, research shows some are incredibly beneficial for your health. You just need to know what to look for.</p>
  180. <p>We&#8217;ll explore why industrially processed seed oils should be avoided at all costs and what to choose instead. We&#8217;ll also discuss why blends like <a href="https://www.florahealth.com/collections/udos-choice"><strong>Udo&#8217;s Oil</strong></a> are what we all need more of: made the way seed oils should be made &#8211; using cold-pressed, organic methods that preserve all the nutritional benefits while providing the perfect balance of omega fatty acids your body needs.</p>
  181. <p>Let&#8217;s separate fact from fear-mongering and help you make informed, healthy choices.</p>
  182. <h2>What Are Seed Oils, Really?</h2>
  183. <p>Seed oils are vegetable oils extracted from the seeds of a variety of plants.</p>
  184. <p>Cheap, highly processed, and marketed as “heart-healthy,” refined seed oils have become a staple in modern cooking, food manufacturing, and even beauty products.</p>
  185. <p><em><strong>Common examples include:</strong></em></p>
  186. <ul>
  187. <li>Soybean oil</li>
  188. <li>Corn oil</li>
  189. <li>Canola (rapeseed) oil</li>
  190. <li>Sunflower oil</li>
  191. <li>Safflower oil</li>
  192. <li>Cottonseed oil</li>
  193. <li>Grapeseed oil</li>
  194. <li>Rice bran oil</li>
  195. </ul>
  196. <p>Today you can find them in nearly every packaged item, including chips, cookies, salad dressings, protein bars, baby formula, and even “health” foods. It wasn’t always this way though.</p>
  197. <p>The shift began in the early 1900s when companies like Procter &amp; Gamble began refining cottonseed oil, originally used for machine lubrication, into a cooking fat called Crisco. This marked the beginning of seed oils infiltrating our food system, not because they were healthier, but because they were cheaper to make and more profitable.</p>
  198. <p>Now, a growing body of evidence points to these industrially refined seed oils doing more harm than good.</p>
  199. <p>But not all seed oils are inherently harmful. In fact, cold-pressed organic seed oils can be a healthy addition to our diets.</p>
  200. <h2>The Real Problem Isn’t What You Think</h2>
  201. <p>Before we dive into the controversy around seed oils, let’s talk about what the body needs to thrive.</p>
  202. <p><strong><em>Every cell, tissue, gland, and organ in your body relies on two essential fatty acids:</em>  </strong></p>
  203. <p><strong> <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/27a1.png" alt="➡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA):</strong> an omega-3 fatty acid</p>
  204. <p><strong> <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/27a1.png" alt="➡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Linoleic acid (LA):</strong> an omega-6 fatty acid</p>
  205. <p>These polyunsaturated fats (PUFAS) are essential because your body can’t make them on its own.</p>
  206. <p>You need to get them through the food you eat. In modern diets, seed oils are the most popular sources of these essential fatty acids (mostly omega-6), along with foods like fatty fish, walnuts, chia and flax.</p>
  207. <p><strong>And they’re key for:</strong></p>
  208. <ul>
  209. <li aria-level="1">Brain function and mood</li>
  210. <li aria-level="1">Hormone production</li>
  211. <li aria-level="1">Immunity</li>
  212. <li aria-level="1">Heart health and blood pressure</li>
  213. <li aria-level="1">Cell membrane structure, signaling, and fluidity</li>
  214. </ul>
  215. <p>Modern diets, especially those high in processed seed oils, often tip the scale dramatically toward omega-6’s leaving our bodies low in omega-3’s.</p>
  216. <h2>The Misunderstanding about Omega Fatty Acid Ratios</h2>
  217. <p>About a century ago, before industrial seed oils, humans ate a much healthier omega-6 to omega-3 ratio, ranging from 4:1 to even 1:4 depending on region and lifestyle.</p>
  218. <p>Today, because industrial seed oils like soy and canola have flooded the modern food supply, that ratio has skyrocketed to about 20:1. So, even if you’re not cooking with them at home, industrial seed oils used in restaurants and prepared foods can contribute to the excess of omega-6 fatty acids in your diet, without enough omega-3 fatty acids for balance.</p>
  219. <p><strong>Here’s why it matters:</strong></p>
  220. <p>Normally, the body relies on antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds &#8211; especially omega-3s &#8211; to keep free radicals (unstable molecules that can damage cells) under control.</p>
  221. <p>But when omega-6s are too high and omega-3s too low, this balance tips. The body struggles to neutralize those radicals quickly enough. The result is oxidative stress, which quietly wears down tissues.</p>
  222. <p>When your body can’t repair itself, it advances aging and raises the risk of chronic conditions like heart disease, insulin resistance, obesity, autoimmune disorders and more.</p>
  223. <p>While the amount and balance of the omegas in the oils you&#8217;re eating is vitally important, the source and quality of those EFAs you&#8217;re getting are equally important.</p>
  224. <h2>Omega Balance is Important, But It Doesn’t Tell the Whole Story</h2>
  225. <p>Today, much of the seed oil debate in the media focuses purely on the high concentration of omega-6 fatty acids compared to omega-3 fatty acids. While some research suggests that excessive omega-6 intake may put more systemic stress on our bodies, leading to poor health, there is still a body of research out there that says they’re fine.</p>
  226. <p>Here’s the problem: these studies often oversimplify the science and don’t account for how these seeds are grown with pesticides, industrially and chemically processed into oils stripped of nutrients, stored in plastic that leach toxins into the oil, and are then form even more toxic compounds when heated during cooking.</p>
  227. <p>When we eat seed oils with fats damaged by heat or processing, it’s like inviting chaos into our cells. Damaged fats from heavily processed oils can get absorbed into our cell membranes, disrupting fluidity and flexibility. This makes it harder for cells to communicate, absorb nutrients, and flush out toxins. Key functions for a healthy body that can easily repair itself.</p>
  228. <p>This imbalance can quietly wear down our health from the inside out.</p>
  229. <p>And it’s why adding some food omega-3s to your diet won’t undo the damage from oxidized omega-6s in processed seed oils. The most effective approach? Eliminate commercial seed oils altogether and replace them with oils that are truly nourishing.</p>
  230. <p>If you’re still deciding whether you want to keep eating these industrial seed oils, we have to look closer at how these oils get from seed to skillet. It may shock you.</p>
  231. <p>But you also may be surprised to learn some seed oils stand out from the crowd as heroes for your health.</p>
  232. <h2>Problems Start in the Soil</h2>
  233. <p>Most commercial seed oils don’t begin with pristine plants grown in nutrient-rich soil.</p>
  234. <p>Instead, they’re typically derived from genetically modified (GMO) crops like soy, canola, and cottonseed, grown in depleted soil and treated with petrochemical fertilizers, synthetic pesticides, and glyphosate, a widely used herbicide.</p>
  235. <p>Glyphosate has been classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) as “<a href="https://www.iarc.who.int/featured-news/media-centre-iarc-news-glyphosate/">probably carcinogenic to humans</a>.” And research has linked glyphosate exposure to health issues like:</p>
  236. <ul>
  237. <li>Disruption of the gut microbiome</li>
  238. <li>Hormonal interference and fertility issues</li>
  239. <li>Increased risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (especially in agricultural workers and communities near sprayed fields)</li>
  240. </ul>
  241. <p>While regulatory agencies continue to claim GMOs and glyphosate are safe within certain limits, many consumers choose to avoid them because of concerns about long-term health effects and their impact on the environment.</p>
  242. <h2>The Way Seed Oils Are Processed Isn’t Pretty Either</h2>
  243. <p>The way most commercial oils are processed turns them into something your body barely recognizes as food. They’re subjected to a series of industrial steps designed to make them cheap, shelf-stable, and flavorless.</p>
  244. <p><em><strong>Perfect for processed foods, but not ideal for your health, think:</strong></em></p>
  245. <ul>
  246. <li>High-heat extraction using chemical solvents</li>
  247. <li>Refining stages including degumming, bleaching, deodorizing, winterizing, and defoaming</li>
  248. <li>Storage in thin plastic containers that can leach and go rancid (often months or years before use)</li>
  249. </ul>
  250. <p>Each step strips away natural nutrients like vitamin E, polyphenols, and essential fatty acids, while increasing the oil’s oxidative instability. This makes it more prone to rancidity and the formation of harmful compounds that can lead to chronic disease.</p>
  251. <p>By the time these oils hit store shelves or fast food fryers, they’ve already been transformed for the worse. Their original nutritional value is erased, and their molecular structure is altered in ways that make them harder for your body to metabolize.</p>
  252. <p><em><strong>While more studies are needed, this could help explain why these oils are linked to:</strong></em></p>
  253. <ul>
  254. <li>Inflammation</li>
  255. <li>Metabolic dysfunction</li>
  256. <li>Cardiovascular risk</li>
  257. </ul>
  258. <p><strong> <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f4a1.png" alt="💡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Don’t Forget:</strong> When studies associate seed oils with chronic disease, they’re often measuring the effects of highly refined, industrial oils and not the rare, unrefined versions that are extracted in a way that helps seeds retain their natural antioxidants and healthy fatty acid balance.</p>

  261. <p>All this confusion has tricked us into fearing all seed oils. So let’s get to the heart of what seed oils really are and aren’t.</p>
  262. <h3>Myth #1: All Seed Oils Are Toxic</h3>
  263. <p><strong>Truth:</strong> Most of the oils lining grocery store shelves &#8211; soybean, corn, canola &#8211; aren’t just high in omega-6s and low in omega 3 fatty acids. They’re also heavily refined, chemically treated, and stripped of their natural nutrients. But not all seed oils are created equal.</p>
  264. <p>While highly refined versions used in processed foods can contribute to inflammation, cold-pressed and organic seed oils (like flaxseed or hemp) can offer valuable nutrients and healthy fats.</p>
  265. <p><a href="https://hsph.harvard.edu/news/scientists-debunk-seed-oil-health-risks/">According to Guy Crosby</a>, adjunct associate of nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health,  repeatedly heating unsaturated fats at high temperatures, like those found in restaurant deep-fryers, is a major health concern.</p>
  266. <p>This causes the formation of harmful compounds that can increase the risk of heart disease, certain cancers, and other health problems. And this is after many of these seed oils already contain toxins from production and storage.</p>
  267. <h3>Myth #2: All Seed Oils Cause Disease</h3>
  268. <p><strong>Truth:</strong> Disease risk is influenced by overall diet, lifestyle, and genetics. Not one ingredient. Some research shows excessive omega-6 intake without balancing omega-3s may contribute to poor health</p>
  269. <p>Emerging research suggests that oxidized polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) from degraded industrial seed oils may accumulate in cell membranes, potentially interfering with fat metabolism and cell signaling while increasing susceptibility to oxidative stress and disease.</p>
  270. <p>But not all seed oils are harmful. It’s the ultra-processed, mass-produced oils that are used for high-heat cooking you need to watch out for. Incorporating quality cold-pressed seed oils into your diet can actually be healthy.</p>
  271. <h3>Myth #3: All Seed Oils Are Just Empty Calories</h3>
  272. <p><strong>Truth:</strong> The industrial refining process doesn’t just clean up the oil &#8211; it denatures it. By the time these oils reach your plate, they bear little resemblance to the original seed they came from.</p>
  273. <p>High heat and chemical solvents remove antioxidants, damage essential fatty acids, and leave behind a product that’s void of healthy nutrients while leaving it vulnerable to oxidation and rancidity.</p>
  274. <p>But healthy seed oils like flaxseed and chia contain nutrients like omega-3s, vitamin E, and phytosterols that <a href="http://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8399210/">support cellular health</a>.</p>
  275. <p>Phytosterols are plant compounds that can help reduce LDL (“the bad” cholesterol) by interfering with its absorption in the intestines.</p>
  276. <h2>Cold-Pressed Oils: The 1% That Gets It Right</h2>
  277. <p>Less than 1% of seed oils on the market are produced with care. But here’s where the seed oil conversation turns around.</p>
  278. <p>Unlike refined oils, which are exposed to high heat and chemicals, cold-pressed oils are mechanically extracted without heat or solvents.</p>
  279. <p>This protects the fats and nutrients inside, without added toxins.</p>
  280. <p><em><strong>Unrefined, cold-pressed oils are:</strong></em></p>
  281. <p><strong>Nutrient and Antioxidant Powerhouses:</strong> These oils have all their fatty acids, vitamins, and natural antioxidants like vitamin E preserved, which help combat oxidative stress.</p>
  282. <p><strong>Free of Toxins and Chemical Residues:</strong> Cold-pressed oils are free from solvents and additives, making them a cleaner choice for cooking and wellness.</p>
  283. <p><strong>Flavorful &amp; Functional:</strong> Because the oils retain their natural flavor, they’re ideal for drizzling over salads, blending into smoothies, or finishing dishes.</p>
  284. <p>Cold-pressed oils are as close to the seed as it gets. They deliver nourishment in a way your body can recognize.</p>
  285. <p>Remember to always choose cold-pressed oils that are non-GMO and organic. And if you want all your omega fatty acids in the right balance, choose <a href="https://www.florahealth.com/collections/udos-choice/products/udos-choice-oil-blend-369?variant=40145120690341">Udo&#8217;s Oil<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> 3•6•9 Blend</a>, from Flora Health.</p>
  286. <p><strong>The Best Solution:</strong> Start Using Udo&#8217;s Oil<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> 3•6•9 Blend.</p>
  287. <p>Responsibly processed and cold-pressed, Udo’s Oil 3•6•9 Blend is a safe, clean and healthy alternative to the industrially processed seed oils on grocery store shelves.</p>
  288. <p>Hopefully, it&#8217;s clear by now you don’t have to be afraid of all seed oils. You just have to know if the oils you’re eating are safely processed. And ideally, the essential fatty acids from the seed oils you’re getting in your diet are in a balanced, healthy ratio.</p>
  289. <p><strong>What’s the easiest way to do this? </strong>Start using Udo’s Oil 3•6•9 Blend.</p>
  290. <p>A clean, functional fat source that respects your biology, it provides all the essential fatty acids your body needs, including hard-to-get omega-3s from plant sources.</p>

  293. <p>Unlike conventional seed oils that are often chemically extracted, heat-processed, and stripped of their natural integrity, Udo’s Oil 3•6•9 Blend is crafted to nourish, not inflame.</p>
  294. <p><em><strong>Here’s what makes Udo’s Oil 3•6•9 Blend shine:</strong></em></p>
  295. <h3>1. Udo’s Oil Has the Ideal 2:1:1 Omega Ratio for Real Balance</h3>
  296. <p>Made from a synergistic blend of organic oils including flaxseed, evening primrose, coconut, sesame, sunflower, and rice bran, Udo’s Oil is formulated to correct the unhealthy imbalance of omega-6 fatty acids in our bodies caused by industrially processed seed oils.</p>
  297. <p>This expertly balanced blend delivers omega-3, omega-6, and non-essential omega-9 in the exact 2:1:1 ratio key to maintaining cellular and metabolic health.</p>
  298. <h3>2. It’s Organic and Cold-Pressed to Preserve Nutrients</h3>
  299. <p>The oils in Udo’s Oil are extracted with care using a gentle, cold-press method that avoids damaging the delicate fats and nutrients in the seed.</p>
  300. <p>This method preserves all the precious nutrients within the oils, including essential fatty acids, vitamins, antioxidants, and other protective plant compounds that help combat free radical damage and support cellular health.</p>
  301. <p>There’s no heat, no chemicals and no compromise in quality. Just clean, nutrient-rich oils in their purest form, exactly as nature intended.</p>
  302. <p>And yes, Udo’s Oil is certified organic, pesticide and toxin-free, and made from high-quality plant sources you can trust.</p>
  303. <h3>3. It Has a Richer Flavor</h3>
  304. <p>Over-processed, low-quality commercial seed oils have a flat taste, lacking flavor and complexity.</p>
  305. <p>With Udo’s, expect a more robust, nutty, or earthy flavor that’s absolutely delicious.</p>
  306. <p>It’s great in smoothies, with salads, in dressings or dips or simply taken by the spoonful!</p>
  307. <h3>4. Udo’s Glass Bottle Matters</h3>
  308. <p>Since plastic is permeable to oxygen, commercial oils packaged in clear plastic bottles oxidize and go rancid as they sit on the shelves.</p>
  309. <p>What’s worse, microplastics and toxins like bisphenols, phthalates, and other endocrine-disrupting toxins can leach inside the oil. Especially when exposed to heat and light or stored for long periods of time.</p>
  310. <p>Glass is inert, which means it doesn&#8217;t react with food or liquids stored inside.</p>
  311. <p>Udo’s Oil is packaged in a dark amber glass, protecting the oil from light, oxygen, and heat keeping the delicate oils fresh and pure. With Udo’s you never have to worry about the buildup of toxins that can occur with plastic containers.</p>
  312. <h3>The Nutritional Power of Each Ingredient in Udo’s Oil</h3>
  313. <p>With a carefully balanced omega profile, Udo’s Oil can support optimal cellular function and overall health. Here’s what’s inside.</p>
  314. <p><strong>Flaxseed Oil</strong> forms the omega-3 rich foundation of this blend. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31130604">Flaxseed oil is loaded with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids</a> and contains lignans, which are powerful antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect the body against oxidative stress, which can increase the risk of chronic diseases.</p>
  315. <p><strong>Evening Primrose Seed Oil</strong> provides gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), a unique omega-6 fatty acid that behaves differently from the ones that get a bad rap. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14729014/">GLA can help support a balanced body</a>, including nerve, skin, brain, skeletal and reproductive health.</p>
  316. <p><strong>Rice Bran Oil</strong> contains heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and antioxidants.</p>
  317. <p><strong>Oat Bran Oil</strong> contains phytosterols, plant-based compounds that some studies suggest can positively impact cholesterol, supporting overall heart health. It also contains antioxidants that can help protect cells against oxidative stress.</p>
  318. <p><strong>Sesame Seed Oil</strong> <a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9573514/">offers unique antioxidants and cardiovascular benefits</a>. Sesame oil is rich in sesamin and sesamol &#8211; antioxidants that may support healthy metabolism, blood sugar balance and promote heart health.</p>
  319. <p><strong>Sunflower Seed Oil</strong> is rich in vitamin E and heart-healthy fats.</p>
  320. <p><strong>Organic Coconut Oil</strong> adds medium-chain triglycerides for energy and stability to this formula. Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs)‌ are metabolized differently in the body than other fats and provide a quick source of energy.</p>
  321. <p><em><strong>With a cult following, fans of Udo’s Oil often report noticeable positive changes within just a few weeks of consistent use.</strong></em></p>
  322. <ul>
  323. <li>Hydrated, clearer skin</li>
  324. <li>Sustained energy and mental clarity</li>
  325. <li>Better mood</li>
  326. </ul>
  327. <p>Udo’s Oil nourishes your body on a deep cellular level.</p>
  328. <h2>Practical Tips and Cooking Swaps for Better Health</h2>
  329. <p>For the healthiest option, it&#8217;s best to always choose cold-pressed seed oils.</p>
  330. <p><em><strong>If you&#8217;re looking to optimize your oil choices, consider these swaps:</strong></em></p>
  331. <ul style="list-style-type: disc;">
  332. <li>Instead of highly refined seed oils for high-heat cooking, use avocado oil, grass-fed ghee, or coconut oil. Avoid reheating oils repeatedly, which increases oxidation.</li>
  333. <li>For raw dishes and applications, choose cold-pressed options like extra virgin olive oil, cold-pressed sesame oil, or the nutritionally superior Udo&#8217;s Oil 3•6•9 Blend.</li>
  334. <li>For supplementation, Udo&#8217;s Oil provides a convenient, scientifically formulated blend that takes the guesswork out of getting the right balance of essential fatty acids. Don’t waste time trying to balance multiple individual oils.</li>
  335. </ul>
  336. <p>Udo’s Oil 3•6•9 Blend has it already figured out for you.</p>
  337. <p><strong> <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f4a1.png" alt="💡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Healthy Cooking Tip:</strong>  To preserve the delicate nutrients in Udo’s Oil, never heat or cook with it. It&#8217;s perfect for salads, dressings, smoothies, or taking directly by the spoonful.</p>

  340. <p>You don’t need to fear all seed oils, but you do need to understand them. The real danger lies in how they’re grown, processed, stored, and consumed. Industrial seed oils are a modern invention, and their widespread use has reshaped our health and environment in ways we’re only beginning to understand.</p>
  341. <p>If you’re serious about supporting your health, tossing in a few omega-3s won’t cancel out the damage from industrially processed junk seed oils. Cutting out commercial seed oils completely is the smartest move.</p>
  342. <p>Choosing cold-pressed, organic oils is a powerful way to reclaim your health, support sustainable agriculture, and nourish your body with fats it actually recognizes.</p>
  343. <p>For quality and convenience, consider all-in-one solutions like Udo&#8217;s Oil. It provides the optimal balance of essential fatty acids in the right ratio and a boost of healthy omega-3’s. It’s a clean, functional fat source that respects your biology and the planet.</p>

  398. <p>When I needed to transport my SUV across the country for an extended work project, I had no idea that <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/2a0e1D"><strong>professional vehicle shipping</strong></a> would save me thousands of dollars and countless headaches. This detailed SGT Auto Transport review breaks down my real experience, costs, and why their service exceeded my expectations.</p>

  401. <p>Running a production company means I&#8217;m constantly weighing efficiency against costs. When I landed a project capturing lifestyle and tourism content across the West Coast, I faced a logistical challenge that many business owners encounter.</p>
  402. <p>I drive an SUV specifically because my partner and I do extensive road trips, and our camera gear, luggage, and equipment has a perfect packing system. We&#8217;ve got everything dialed in. (Check out our <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/roadtrip-tips/">essential road trip tips</a> for local travel!) But this project was different, it required 3 months of bouncing between West Coast cities, and <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/POdgaq"><strong>shipping a vehicle across the USA</strong></a> made more sense than driving cross-country when I&#8217;d already be doing thousands of miles during the actual work.</p>
  403. <p><strong>My transportation options were:</strong></p>
  404. <ul>
  405. <li><strong>Long-term SUV rental:</strong> $5,900+ for 3 months (including insurance) &#8211; see our <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/budget-road-trip-tips/">budget road trip tips</a> for cost-saving strategies</li>
  406. <li><strong>Fly and rent locally:</strong> Constantly rearranging gear in different rental cars</li>
  407. <li><strong>Drive cross-country both ways:</strong> 6+ days of driving time I couldn&#8217;t afford</li>
  408. <li><strong>Professional car shipping:</strong> Only research required</li>
  409. </ul>
  410. <h2>The Rental Car Sticker Shock That Changed Everything</h2>
  411. <p>When I got that $5,900+ quote for a 3-month SUV rental with insurance, my immediate reaction was <em>&#8220;Are you kidding me?&#8221;</em></p>
  412. <p>I understand long-term rentals aren&#8217;t cheap, but nearly $6,000 was way beyond reasonable. Plus, anyone who&#8217;s tried cramming multiple pieces of luggage into rental cars knows it&#8217;s like playing Tetris every time you load and unload.</p>
  413. <p>Having done countless local road trips, I knew exactly how our gear fit in our SUV. The thought of spending 3 months constantly rearranging equipment in unfamiliar rental vehicles sounded like a productivity nightmare.</p>
  414. <h2>Finding SGT Auto Transport: Why Their Calculator Beat the Competition</h2>
  415. <p>I started researching car shipping companies, and honestly, most websites were frustrating. Half had confusing pricing structures, others had quotes that seemed too good to be true (obviously sketchy), and many required jumping through hoops just to get basic information.</p>
  416. <p>Then I discovered <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/RGdLg2"><strong>SGT Auto Transport&#8217;s car shipping calculator</strong></a>. Their system was refreshingly straightforward. I entered Wilmington, Delaware to Los Angeles, selected my SUV specifications, and received an instant quote of $1,150. No games, no &#8220;call for pricing,&#8221; just transparent numbers. Try their calculator below!</p>

  423. <h3 style="margin-top: 0; color: #2a7fc1;">6 Reasons That Made SGT Auto Transport Stand Out:</h3>
  424. <ol style="padding-left: 20px; margin: 0;">
  425. <li><strong>User-friendly technology:</strong> Their website actually worked like a modern business</li>
  426. <li><strong>Transparent pricing:</strong> No AI chatbots or pushy sales tactics</li>
  427. <li><strong>Honest quotes:</strong> While competitors had suspiciously low prices, SGT&#8217;s felt realistic</li>
  428. <li><strong>Zero upfront payment:</strong> Unlike competitors demanding deposits, they only charge when assigning a driver</li>
  429. <li><strong>Proven track record:</strong> 76,000+ customers with genuine reviews that matched my needs</li>
  430. <li><strong>Years of experience:</strong> They&#8217;ve shipped over 100,000 vehicles.</li>

  435. <h3>Pickup Process in Wilmington, Delaware</h3>
  436. <p>The pickup was smooth and easy. The driver called about 2 hours before arrival and they found our place without any navigation issues. The entire process took approximately 20 minutes:</p>
  437. <p><strong>Vehicle Inspection:</strong> We meticulously documented every existing scratch and ding on the Bill of Lading<br />
  438. <strong>Professional Loading:</strong> These drivers clearly had extensive experience and proper equipment<br />
  439. <strong>Clear Documentation:</strong> I received tracking information and direct driver contact details</p>
  440. <p>I&#8217;ll admit, watching them load our car onto the carrier made me slightly nervous, but their process was obviously well-practiced and professional.</p>
  441. <h3>Real-Time Transport Monitoring</h3>
  442. <p><strong>My primary concern was simple:</strong> Would my car arrive on schedule and in identical condition? <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/2a0e1D"><strong>SGT Auto Transport&#8217;s tracking system</strong></a> eliminated those worries completely.</p>
  443. <p>I received updates when my vehicle hit major waypoints and even proactive communication about a weather delay in Colorado that added one day to the timeline. I appreciated being informed without overwhelming unnecessary updates.</p>
  444. <h3>Delivery in Los Angeles</h3>
  445. <p>Five days after pickup, I received the delivery call. The driver met me at our hotel and we conducted another thorough inspection. Everything was perfect. <strong>Not a single new scratch or issue. Exactly the same condition it left Delaware.</strong></p>

  468. <p>For the return trip, I already trusted SGT&#8217;s execution, so rebooking through their <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/RGdLg2">online system was simple</a>. The return shipping from California back to Delaware was even smoother than the initial shipment – same professional service, same attention to detail, delivered directly to our <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/downtown-wilmington-de/">Wilmington driveway</a>.</p>

  575. <h2>Why Ship Your Car Instead of That Epic Road Trip?</h2>
  576. <p>Look, we get it. There&#8217;s something romantic about the idea of driving cross-country &#8211; windows down, music up, discovering hidden gems along the way. <strong>Here&#8217;s the reality check:</strong> That drive from coast to coast is going to eat up about 40 hours of your life, cost you $400-$600 in gas alone, plus hotels, food, and the wear and tear on your car.</p>
  577. <p><strong>But, it&#8217;s not just about the money.</strong> Think about the stress of navigating unfamiliar highways, dealing with bad weather, and the sheer exhaustion of driving 8+ hours a day. And if something goes wrong, like a flat tire in the middle of nowhere, an accident, or even just getting sick on the road, you&#8217;re stuck dealing with it far from home.</p>
  578. <p>Auto transport takes all that worry off your plate. Your car gets to its destination safely while you can fly, focus on other moving logistics, or just avoid the hassle altogether. For families juggling multiple cars, elderly folks, or anyone who&#8217;d rather not spend a week of their life behind the wheel, professional car shipping isn&#8217;t just convenient, it&#8217;s a sanity saver.</p>

  581. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  582. <p>The car shipping industry used to be pretty old-school, with lots of waiting around for quotes, wondering where your car was, and dealing with surprise fees. Thankfully, companies like SGT have figured out that customers want transparency, speed, and no nasty surprises.</p>
  583. <p>Car shipping today is all about making your life easier. They use real-time tracking so you actually know where your car is, smart quote systems that give you accurate prices instantly, and communication that keeps you in the loop without bombarding you with unnecessary updates.</p>
  584. <p><strong>So how does <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/POdgaq">shipping a vehicle across the USA</a> actually work? Let&#8217;s break down the three simple steps.</strong></p>
  585. <h3>Step 1: Quote Generation and Booking</h3>
  586. <p>Getting a car shipping quote used to mean calling around to different companies, waiting for callbacks, and then getting prices that seemed to change every time you talked to someone. Thankfully, that&#8217;s mostly a thing of the past.</p>
  587. <p>Modern car shipping companies like SGT Auto Transport now have smart quote systems that actually make sense. Instead of just multiplying distance by some random rate, they consider things like how popular your route is (popular routes are usually cheaper), what time of year you&#8217;re shipping (winter from north to south gets pricey), and what kind of car you have.</p>
  588. <p><strong>Here&#8217;s what you&#8217;ll need to get an accurate quote:</strong></p>
  589. <ul>
  590. <li aria-level="1">Where you&#8217;re picking up and dropping off</li>
  591. <li aria-level="1">What kind of car you&#8217;re shipping</li>
  592. <li aria-level="1">Whether you want open or enclosed transport</li>
  593. <li aria-level="1">When you need it done.</li>
  594. </ul>
  595. <p>Reputable companies will give you one price that covers everything with no surprise fees showing up later.</p>
  596. <h3>Step 2: Professional Vehicle Pickup</h3>
  597. <p>Once you&#8217;ve booked your shipment, the pickup part is actually pretty straightforward.</p>
  598. <p>Your driver will give you a heads up a few hours before they show up. They&#8217;ll double-check the timing and make sure they can actually get to your house (those car carriers are big and don&#8217;t love narrow streets or low-hanging tree branches).</p>
  599. <p>When the driver arrives, you&#8217;ll both walk around your car and note any existing scratches, dents, or dings. Think of it like a rental car inspection, but in reverse. You&#8217;ll both sign off on a Bill of Lading, which is the documentation of what your car looked like when they picked it up. Keep your copy safe because you&#8217;ll need it when your car gets delivered.</p>
  600. <p>The actual loading process is pretty cool to watch if you&#8217;ve never seen it before. These drivers know what they&#8217;re doing and have special ramps and tie-downs designed specifically for cars. They&#8217;ve probably loaded thousands of vehicles. Whether your car goes on an open trailer or gets the VIP treatment in an enclosed one, they follow the same careful process to make sure nothing shifts around during the trip.</p>
  601. <h3>Step 3: Transport Monitoring and Delivery</h3>
  602. <p>Once your car hits the road, you&#8217;ll get frequent updates along the way. SGT Auto Transport uses GPS tracking so you can see roughly where your car is, and they&#8217;ll let you know about any major delays or changes to the schedule.</p>
  603. <p>When your car is getting close to its destination, the driver will give you a call a few hours ahead of time. This isn&#8217;t just a courtesy. They want to make sure you&#8217;re actually going to be there when they arrive.</p>
  604. <p>The delivery works just like the pickup did. You and the driver will walk around your car together, checking for any new damage and comparing it to that Bill of Lading you signed when they picked it up. If everything looks good (and it almost always does), you&#8217;ll sign off on the delivery and your car shipping adventure is complete.</p>

  610. <h2>Your Two Main Shipping Options: Open vs Enclosed Transport</h2>
  611. <p>Most people go with open transport, and there&#8217;s a good reason for that. About 8 out of 10 cars get shipped this way because it&#8217;s affordable and totally reliable. Your car rides on the same type of trailer you see delivering new cars to dealerships. Sure, it&#8217;s exposed to the weather, but these trailers are designed for it and the damage rate is incredibly low &#8211; we&#8217;re talking less than 1% of shipments.</p>
  612. <p>Enclosed transport is like first-class for your car. Your vehicle gets loaded into a covered trailer that protects it from rain, snow, road salt, and flying debris. This is what most people choose for classic cars, luxury vehicles, or anything they&#8217;ve customized. It costs about 30-40% more than open transport, but if your car is worth six figures or has sentimental value you can&#8217;t put a price on, it&#8217;s worth every penny.</p>
  613. <h2>5 Things That Affect Your Vehicle Shipping Cost</h2>
  614. <p>A bunch of different things go into your final price, and knowing about them can help you save money or at least understand why you&#8217;re paying what you&#8217;re paying.</p>
  615. <ol>
  616. <li><strong>How far and how popular your route is:</strong> Obviously, shipping coast-to-coast costs more than going one state over. Popular routes like California to Texas or Florida to New York often cost less per mile because there are tons of carriers running those routes regularly.</li>
  617. <li><strong>Time of year matters:</strong> Winter is expensive if you&#8217;re going south because everyone&#8217;s trying to escape the cold. Spring gets busy with people moving north again. Fall is usually your best bet for cheaper rates because fewer people are moving.</li>
  618. <li><strong>Your car itself:</strong> Big trucks and SUVs take up more space on the trailer, so they cost more. Same goes if your car doesn&#8217;t run &#8211; they need special equipment to load it. And if you&#8217;ve lowered your car or added a big spoiler, that might affect the price too.</li>
  619. <li><strong>Where you&#8217;re located:</strong> If you live in a major city, you&#8217;ll probably get better rates and faster service because carriers are already going there regularly. Rural areas sometimes cost more because the driver has to make a special trip.</li>
  620. <li><strong>How quickly you need it:</strong> Need your car there ASAP? You&#8217;ll pay extra for expedited service. But if you&#8217;re flexible with your dates, carriers can work you into their regular routes and save you money.</li>
  621. </ol>
  622. <h2>Avoiding Industry Pitfalls and Sketchy Operators</h2>
  623. <p>Don&#8217;t let people try to scare you with horror stories. Most car shipping experiences go smoothly when you choose the right company. But there are definitely some operators out there who are more interested in making a quick buck than taking care of your car.</p>
  624. <p><strong> <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f4a1.png" alt="💡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Here&#8217;s what to watch out for:</strong> If someone gives you a quote that&#8217;s way lower than everyone else, that&#8217;s usually a red flag. Same thing if they want a huge payment upfront before they&#8217;ve even assigned a driver to your car. Legitimate companies, like SGT, don&#8217;t need your money until they&#8217;re actually providing the service.</p>
  625. <p>Good companies will have a real address you can visit, proper insurance paperwork they&#8217;re happy to share, and they won&#8217;t pressure you to decide on the spot. They&#8217;ll also actually answer their phones and give you straight answers to your questions.</p>

  628. <p>The car shipping world has gotten a major tech upgrade in recent years. Gone are the days of waiting hours for quotes or wondering where your car is during transport. Today&#8217;s best companies use smart tracking systems, instant quote calculators, and automated updates that actually make sense.</p>
  629. <p><strong>SGT Auto Transport has just launched their new <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/RGdLg2">car shipping calculator</a></strong> &#8211; and honestly, it&#8217;s about time someone made this process actually user-friendly.</p>
  630. <p>Instead of those basic calculators that spit out numbers based purely on distance (which are usually wildly wrong), this one actually understands the real world. It knows that shipping from Miami to Boston costs different amounts in January versus July. It understands that some routes are super popular (and therefore cheaper) while others require special coordination.</p>
  631. <p>Their car shipping cost calculator gives you the real deal immediately. There’s no waiting around for someone to call you back with a completely different price. You can play around with different dates, see how enclosed versus open transport affects cost, and actually make an informed decision without any pressure. It&#8217;s completely free and there&#8217;s no email or credit card required. <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/RGdLg2"><strong>Try it now!</strong></a></p>
  632. <h2>Why Interstate Car Shipping is Trickier Than You&#8217;d Think</h2>
  633. <p>Every state has its own quirky rules about commercial vehicles, weight limits, and what paperwork needs to be filed where. It&#8217;s like trying to solve a 50-piece puzzle where each piece has completely different requirements.</p>
  634. <p>SGT Auto Transport specializes in professional cross-country car shipping &#8211; and there&#8217;s a lot more to it than just finding a truck to haul your car from one state to another.</p>
  635. <p>Take something seemingly simple like driving through different states. In some places, commercial carriers need special permits just to pass through. Weight stations operate on different schedules. Some routes that look great on a map turn into nightmares when there&#8217;s construction or seasonal weather restrictions.</p>
  636. <p>Shipping cars to another state requires someone who knows these ins and outs. Reliable companies like SGT have systems to track which routes work best during different seasons, where the best fuel stops are located, and how to avoid the weight stations that always seem to be backed up on Fridays.</p>
  637. <p>Professional interstate coordination also means managing across time zones without making you crazy. When your pickup is scheduled in California but you live in New York, someone needs to make sure everyone&#8217;s on the same page about timing &#8211; and that&#8217;s harder than it sounds when you&#8217;re dealing with multiple carriers, different schedules, and the occasional unexpected delay.</p>

  640. <p>SGT Auto Transport handles long-distance vehicle transportation in every direction across the US. Cross-country shipping means your car might start its journey in a New York blizzard and get delivered to you in sunny California weather. That&#8217;s a lot of variables to manage.</p>
  641. <p>The cross-country car shipping routes tell their own stories. East to West Coast runs like New York to Los Angeles or Florida to Seattle cross multiple climate zones, elevation changes, and seasonal weather patterns. Your car might start its journey in a snowstorm and end up being delivered in 80-degree sunshine.</p>
  642. <p><strong>Here&#8217;s what makes long-distance transport tricky:</strong> A carrier leaving Denver in clear weather might hit a surprise spring snowstorm in Wyoming that delays the entire route by two days. Or construction in a major city forces a detour that adds 200 miles to the journey. The best shipping companies build buffer time into their estimates and have backup plans for when (not if) something unexpected happens.</p>
  643. <p>Weather management becomes crucial on these longer hauls. Professional companies track weather patterns across the entire route, not just at pickup and delivery points. They&#8217;ll delay a shipment by a day rather than risk having your car sit in a hailstorm somewhere in Kansas.</p>
  644. <p>The logistics get complex too. Cross-country routes typically take 5-14 days, and keeping everyone informed without overwhelming them with updates requires a delicate balance. You want to know your car made it through the mountains safely, but you don&#8217;t need a text every time the driver stops for gas.</p>
  645. <h2>Choosing the Right Car Shipping Company</h2>
  646. <p><strong> <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f4a1.png" alt="💡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Don&#8217;t just go with the cheapest quote</strong> &#8211; that usually backfires.</p>
  647. <p>Look for companies that actually show up when they say they will, answer their phones when you call, and have transparent pricing without hidden fees. <a href="https://sgtautotransportcorp.sjv.io/bO1K76"><strong>Check their reviews</strong></a>, but focus on recent ones from real customers who&#8217;ve actually shipped cars.</p>
  648. <p>The best companies, like SGT Auto Transport, make the whole process feel easy. They have good technology that keeps you informed, customer service that doesn&#8217;t make you want to pull your hair out, and solid insurance that actually covers what it says it covers.

  667. <h2>Getting Your Car Ready for Pickup</h2>
  668. <p>A little prep work goes a long way toward making everything go smoothly. First, clean out all your personal stuff &#8211; carriers can&#8217;t be responsible for your belongings, and you don&#8217;t want your favorite sunglasses disappearing somewhere between states. Give your car a quick wash so you can easily spot any existing scratches or dents, and take some photos of any damage that&#8217;s already there.</p>
  669. <p>Keep your gas tank between 1/4 and 1/2 full &#8211; enough so the car can be moved around but not so much that it adds unnecessary weight. If your car has an alarm, turn it off so the driver doesn&#8217;t have to deal with it going off every time they hit a bump. And make sure you have all the keys and remotes ready to hand over.</p>
  670. <p>You&#8217;ll need your car registration, insurance info, and a photo ID. If there&#8217;s anything special the driver needs to know (like a tricky garage door or specific pickup instructions), write it down. Give them a couple ways to reach you, and if there&#8217;s any chance you won&#8217;t be available, let a friend or family member know they might need to handle things for you.</p>

  681. <h3 data-start="338" data-end="593">How much does it cost to ship a car across the country?</h3>
  682. <p data-start="338" data-end="593">The average cost to ship a vehicle across the USA ranges from $900 to $1,800 for open transport, depending on distance, vehicle size, and season. Enclosed transport typically costs 30–40% more.</p>
  683. <h3 data-start="595" data-end="796">How long does it take to ship a car?</h3>
  684. <p data-start="595" data-end="796">Shipping times vary, but most cross-country shipments take between 5 to 14 days. Weather, route popularity, and your chosen service type can affect timelines.</p>
  685. <h3 data-start="798" data-end="1017">Is it cheaper to drive or ship my car?</h3>
  686. <p data-start="798" data-end="1017">In many cases, shipping is more affordable than driving when you factor in fuel, hotels, meals, missed work, and vehicle wear and tear. It also saves time and reduces stress.</p>

  771. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Buying a home is a major milestone, but keeping it up to date is a whole different challenge. Maybe you’ve been dreaming of replacing your dated kitchen countertops, finally finishing the basement, or upgrading to energy-efficient windows. But like most homeowners, you’ve probably put those dreams on hold because of one big factor: <strong>cost.</strong></p>
  772. <p>It&#8217;s completely normal to put off renovations when life gets busy or when finances are tight. After all, home improvement projects aren’t cheap, and it’s easy to prioritize more immediate expenses. But as those “someday” plans keep getting pushed back, your house continues to age, and those small upgrades could end up saving you more money in the long run if done sooner rather than later.</p>
  773. <p>Whether it’s improving comfort, increasing home value, or fixing something long overdue, making upgrades is part of smart homeownership. The good news? With the right plan and tools, you don’t have to keep delaying your projects. There are practical ways to move forward without draining your savings.</p>
  774. <h2>Consider Financing Options That Fit Your Budget</h2>
  775. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If you&#8217;re struggling to figure out how to afford the renovations you’ve been eyeing, start by exploring your financing options. For many homeowners, using a </span><a href="https://www.sofi.com/personal-loans/home-improvement-loans/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sofi home improvement loan</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> can be a smart move. These loans offer flexible terms, fixed interest rates, and don’t require using your home as collateral, making them a safer alternative to options like HELOCs or refinancing.</span></p>
  776. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Whether you&#8217;re looking to upgrade a bathroom, modernize your HVAC system, or install new flooring, having access to a reliable loan option can open the door to real progress. This type of financing helps you plan realistically for your project, stick to a budget, and get started without waiting months (or years) to save enough cash. And since approval is typically fast and fully online, you can move forward on your timeline.</span></p>
  777. <h2>Set a Clear Project Scope</h2>
  778. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Before you spend a dime, define what you want to accomplish. Do you want a completely new kitchen or just fresh cabinets and counters? Are you aiming for a full backyard transformation or simply improving your patio? Clarifying your goals will help you get accurate quotes, avoid unnecessary expenses, and focus your energy on what truly matters.</span></p>
  779. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You don&#8217;t need to have every single detail nailed down right away. But having a general vision, along with a priority list, makes budgeting and decision-making easier. You’ll also be able to spot the difference between a “want” and a “need,” which can go a long way in staying on track financially.</span></p>
  780. <h2>Research Costs and Create a Realistic Budget</h2>
  781. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once you know what you want to upgrade, take time to research costs. Look at materials, contractor fees, labor rates in your area, and any permits or taxes that might be involved. Then build a budget that includes a buffer for unexpected expenses, because those always pop up, no matter how well you plan.</span></p>
  782. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A realistic budget helps you avoid surprises and keeps your project from spiraling out of control. Whether you plan to use savings, a loan, or a combination of both, knowing your numbers will give you peace of mind as the work begins.</span></p>
  783. <h2>Break It Into Phases</h2>
  784. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If your list of upgrades feels overwhelming, you don’t have to do everything at once. Start small. Maybe phase one is painting the living room and updating light fixtures. Phase two could be replacing appliances or retiling the bathroom. Spacing things out gives you more flexibility with your time and money.</span></p>
  785. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Taking a phased approach also helps you focus on quality instead of speed. You can carefully choose your materials, find the right contractors, and ensure each step is done properly. That way, the result is exactly what you want, not a rushed job you regret later.</span></p>
  786. <h2>Look for Value-Boosting Projects</h2>
  787. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When deciding which upgrades to tackle first, prioritize the ones that give you the most return on investment (ROI). Kitchen and bathroom updates often top the list, but don&#8217;t overlook improvements like new windows, upgraded insulation, or a fresh coat of paint. These projects not only improve your daily life, but they also boost your home’s resale value.</span></p>
  788. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Energy-efficient upgrades can also pay off in the long term by lowering your utility bills. Think LED lighting, Energy Star appliances, smart thermostats, or better weatherproofing. Even small changes in this category can add up over time.</span></p>
  789. <h2>DIY Where It Makes Sense</h2>
  790. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not every project requires a professional. Painting, landscaping, installing shelves, or even replacing cabinet hardware can be done on your own, especially with all the tutorials available online today. DIY projects can save a lot of money and give you a greater sense of satisfaction with your home.</span></p>
  791. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Of course, know your limits. Electrical, plumbing, or major structural changes are best left to licensed professionals. But when it comes to cosmetic upgrades, a little elbow grease can go a long way.</span></p>
  792. <h2>Shop Smart and Compare Quotes</h2>
  793. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once you’re ready to buy materials or hire help, be a savvy shopper. Don’t settle for the first quote you get from a contractor or supplier. Compare rates, ask for itemized estimates, and read reviews before making any commitments.</span></p>
  794. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For materials, look for discounts, shop sales, or consider buying gently used items. Many homeowners sell leftover tiles, fixtures, or even full sets of cabinets after finishing their renovations. Just make sure whatever you purchase fits your space and meets safety standards.</span></p>
  795. <h2>Plan for the Long Term</h2>
  796. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Every upgrade you make should fit into a larger vision for your home. Think about how your needs might change in the next five to ten years. Will your family grow? Are you planning to sell eventually? Choosing timeless designs and durable materials now can help you avoid repeat costs later.</span></p>
  797. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Also, think about how one upgrade might affect another. For example, installing new flooring might not make sense if you’re planning a kitchen remodel in the next year. Proper planning avoids double work and double expenses.</span></p>
  798. <h2>Don’t Wait Forever</h2>
  799. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There’s never going to be a perfect time to renovate. Life will always be busy, and there will always be bills to pay. But if you’ve been putting off upgrades that could improve your comfort, safety, or efficiency, it’s worth taking that first step now.</span></p>
  800. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Whether it’s applying for a loan, setting a budget, or just mapping out a plan, small actions lead to big progress. Your home is one of your most valuable assets, and it deserves attention and care just like anything else in your life.</span></p>
  801. <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You don’t need to win the lottery to give your home the refresh it deserves. With the right financial tools, smart planning, and a step-by-step mindset, those long-postponed upgrades can finally become a reality. It’s not about doing everything at once. It’s about making smart choices, one improvement at a time.</span></p>

  821. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Does that old jar of jelly in your fridge have you wondering, &#8220;<strong>Does jelly go bad</strong>?&#8221;  </span></p>
  822. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">It goes great on everything from sandwiches to <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/lavender-cookies/">cookies</a>. But as with any food product, it doesn’t last forever. </span></p>
  823. <h2><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Does Jelly Go Bad? </strong></span></h2>
  824. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>The quick answer is: yes, it can!</strong>  </span></p>
  825. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Jelly has a relatively long shelf life because of its high sugar content, which acts as a natural preservative. However, storing your jelly incorrectly and time can lead to spoilage, affecting its texture, taste, and safety. </span></p>
  826. <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;">So how do you know when it&#8217;s time to toss your jelly?</span></span></p>
  827. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about how to know if your jelly has gone bad, long jelly lasts, how to store it properly, and signs that it has gone bad.</span></p>
  828. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">We&#8217;ll also cover how you should store your jelly, so it stays fresh as long as possible.</span></p>
  829. <h2>What is Jelly Exactly?</h2>
  830. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">According to the <a href="https://nchfp.uga.edu/how/make-jam-jelly">National Center for Home Food Preservation</a> at the University of Georgia:</span></p>
  831. <blockquote><p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">&#8220;Jelly, jam, preserves, conserves and marmalades are fruit products that are jellied or thickened. Most are preserved by sugar&#8230;.. </span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">They have long been used as a traditional method for preserving seasonal fruits, effectively prolonging their shelf life while encapsulating the vibrant essence of fresh, ripe flavors. &#8220;</span></p></blockquote>
  832. <h2>How to Tell If Your Jelly Has Gone Bad</h2>
  833. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Jelly doesn’t spoil easily, but it doesn&#8217;t last forever. </span></p>
  834. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Here are clear signs it&#8217;s not safe to eat:</strong></span></p>
  835. <h3>1. Mold Growth</h3>
  836. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">If you spot fuzzy, green, white, or black mold on the surface of your jelly, discard it immediately. Even scraping off the mold does not make it safe—spores can spread throughout the jar.</span></p>
  837. <h3>2. Sour Smell</h3>
  838. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Fresh jelly has a sweet, fruity aroma. If it smells sour, fermented, or rancid, it&#8217;s most likely bad.</span></p>
  839. <h3>3. Texture Changes</h3>
  840. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Jelly should have a smooth, gel-like consistency. If it turns watery, grainy, or clumpy, it may have deteriorated because of temperature fluctuations or bacterial growth.</span></p>
  841. <h3>4. Discoloration</h3>
  842. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Color changes or dark spots suggest exposure to air, light, or contamination. These are signs it&#8217;s best to toss the jelly.</span></p>
  843. <h3>5. Unusual Taste</h3>
  844. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">If the jelly tastes strange, bitter, or overly fermented, it has likely gone bad—even if there’s no visible mold.</span></p>
  845. <h2>How Long Does Jelly Last?</h2>
  846. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The shelf life of jelly depends on whether it is opened or unopened, its ingredients, and how it’s stored.</span></p>
  847. <h3><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Unopened Jelly</strong></span></h3>
  848. <ul>
  849. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Commercially packaged jelly is safe for 6 months to 1 year</strong> at room temperature.</span></li>
  850. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Some varieties with preservatives can last even longer, but quality may decline with age.</span></li>
  851. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Always check the expiration</strong> or “best by” date for guidance.</span></li>
  852. </ul>
  853. <h3><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Opened Jelly</strong></span></h3>
  854. <ul>
  855. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Once <strong>opened, jelly should be refrigerated</strong> to maintain freshness.</span></li>
  856. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Properly stored <strong>opened jars last 1 to 3 months</strong>, depending on sugar content and preservatives.</span></li>
  857. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Sugar-free or<strong> low-sugar jelly typically has a shorter shelf life</strong> because of reduced preservative action.</span></li>
  858. </ul>
  859. <h2>What About Homemade Jelly?</h2>
  860. <ul>
  861. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Homemade jelly (without commercial preservatives) lasts around 1 month in the refrigerator.</span></li>
  862. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Sealed, properly canned homemade jelly can stay fresh for 6 months to a year.</span></li>
  863. </ul>
  864. <h2>Proper Jelly Storage: How to Keep It Fresh</h2>
  865. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">To extend the shelf life of jelly and prevent spoilage, follow these storage tips:</span></p>
  866. <ul>
  867. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Keep unopened jelly in a cool, dry place</strong> like a pantry or cupboard.</span></li>
  868. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Refrigerate</strong> opened jelly to maintain texture and prevent bacteria growth.</span></li>
  869. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Use a clean utensil</strong> when scooping jelly to avoid cross-contamination.</span></li>
  870. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Seal the lid tightly </strong>to prevent moisture and bacteria from entering.</span></li>
  871. <li><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Avoid sunlight and humidity</strong>, which can alter its consistency and quality.</span></li>
  872. </ul>
  873. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  874. <h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
  875. <h3>Can you eat expired jelly?</h3>
  876. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Jelly past its best by date is often still safe if it shows no signs of spoilage. However, its taste and texture may degrade.</span></p>
  877. <h3>Does sugar-free jelly go bad faster?</h3>
  878. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Yes. Sugar is a natural preservative, so low-sugar or sugar-free jelly is more prone to spoilage.</span></p>
  879. <h3>Can mold in jelly make you sick?</h3>
  880. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Absolutely. Mold can produce toxins that lead to digestive issues or illness, so it’s best to throw it away.</span></p>
  881. <h3><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Is homemade jelly safer than store-bought jelly?</span></h3>
  882. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Homemade jelly contains fewer preservatives, so it expires faster. However, properly sealed it can last several months.</span></p>
  883. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  884. <h2>Conclusion</h2>
  885. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">While jelly has a long shelf life thanks to its high sugar content, it can go bad over time, especially when exposed to moisture, air, and bacteria. </span></p>
  886. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Refrigeration and proper storage help maximize freshness. </span></p>
  887. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Always check for mold, off odors, or unusual texture before consuming. </span></p>
  888. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">If you’re ever unsure if it&#8217;s bad, it’s better to be safe and throw it out!</span></p>

  917. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Jelly is sweet, fruity, and peanut butter&#8217;s best buddy. But here’s the million-dollar question: <strong>Does jelly need to be refrigerated?</strong> </span></p>
  918. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The answer isn’t as simple as you might think. Some jellies thrive in the pantry, while others demand a chilly home in the fridge. </span></p>
  919. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">In this guide, we&#8217;ll cover what the science says, and give you expert advice along with storage hacks so you can keep your jelly fresh and delicious.</span></p>
  920. <h2>Does Jelly Need to Be Refrigerated?</h2>
  921. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>The short answer: </strong>Yes! You should refrigerate jelly. Here&#8217;s why:</span></p>
  922. <h2>Room Temperature vs. Refrigeration: What Experts Say</h2>
  923. <h3>1. USDA’s Take on Jelly Storage</h3>
  924. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), opened jelly should be refrigerated to maintain quality and prevent microbial growth. </span></p>
  925. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">High-sugar jellies can last longer at room temperature, but low-sugar or sugar-free varieties are more prone to spoilage.</span></p>
  926. <h3>2. Food Scientists Weigh In</h3>
  927. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Experts from the <a href="https://nchfp.uga.edu/how/store">National Center for Home Food Preservation</a> recommend that you refrigerate jelly after opening to slow down bacterial growth and preserve texture. </span></p>
  928. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">While sugar acts as a natural preservative, refrigeration prevents mold formation and extends shelf life. <a href="https://nchfp.uga.edu/how/can/general-information/storing-home-canned-foods">Read their guidelines</a>.</span></p>
  929. <h3>3. University Research on Jelly Preservation</h3>
  930. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Studies from Michigan State University Extension highlight that homemade jelly lacks commercial preservatives, which means refrigeration is essential for safety. </span></p>
  931. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Canned jelly, however, can remain stable at room temperature until opened. <a href="https://www.canr.msu.edu/news/preserve_low_and_no-sugar_jams_and_jellies">Check out their research</a>.</span></p>

  967. <h2>Signs Your Jelly Has Gone Bad (And Why You Shouldn’t Risk It)</h2>
  968. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Here’s how to <a href="https://onbetterliving.com/does-jelly-go-bad/">know if your jelly has gone bad</a> before it ruins your breakfast:</span></p>
  969. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Mold Growth:</strong> If you see fuzzy spots, toss it. Mold spores spread fast!</span><br />
  970. <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Sour Smell:</strong> Jelly should smell fruity, not funky. If it stinks, get rid of it.</span><br />
  971. <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Texture Change:</strong> Watery or clumpy jelly? Bacteria might be partying inside.</span><br />
  972. <span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Discoloration:</strong> Darkening or weird color shifts? Time to say goodbye.</span></p>
  973. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">If you notice any of these signs, be sure to throw away your jelly immediately. </span></p>
  974. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Don&#8217;t just scrape off the mold, it’s not worth the risk.</span></p>
  975. <p>&nbsp;</p>

Always throw away jelly you&#8217;ve already </span><span style="font-size: 18.6667px;">opened</span><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> if it&#8217;s expired.</span></p>

  1000. <p>&nbsp;</p>
  1001. <h2>Final Verdict: Should You Refrigerate Jelly?</h2>

  1044. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Wind Creek Bethlehem has over 550 guest rooms, including 50 suites. And one of the most exciting additions is the North Tower, which was part of a recent $160 million expansion designed for travelers who love clean lines and modern comforts. </span></p>
  1045. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">After a smooth check-in, we headed up to our room on the 14th floor. Stepping in, we were pleasantly surprised. The room was spacious, with a rich jewel-toned palette, a plush pillow-top bed, and chic details that gave it a luxurious feel. At 400 square feet, it felt really spacious and comfortable, but also functional. There was plenty of room for our luggage, and it never once felt cluttered.</span></p>
  1046. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">One of the most striking features was the sky-high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows that overlook the Lehigh Valley, the Lehigh River, and the iconic <a href="https://www.discoverlehighvalley.com/things-to-do/attractions/steelstacks/">SteelStacks</a>, once home to the Bethlehem Steel Corporation, established in 1857.</span></p>

  1048. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Once the heart of America’s steel industry and a key part of the Industrial Revolution, the SteelStacks have now been transformed into a park and venue that hosts music, art, and community events year-round. From our room, we also saw trains riding along the tracks carrying cargo throughout the day. It&#8217;s truly an awe-inspiring and iconic view.</span></p>
  1049. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">A thoughtful nod to local history and the historic company that helped build this region appears in the bathroom too: custom wallpaper with playful blueprints of the old steel mill pay tribute to the steel town’s legacy with playful, modern flair</span></p>

  1095. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Vegetarians can opt for one of their salads or a cauliflower steak. But whatever you do, don’t miss the <strong>General Tso Cauliflower</strong> appetizer. Perfect for sharing, florets of cauliflower are fried to a crisp, and tossed in sweet and spicy sriracha sauce. Urban Table’s manager, Clara, told us she’s turned cauliflower skeptics into loyal fans with this dish and now we understand why. It’s fantastic.</span></p>
  1096. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Other standouts included the <strong>Steak Tacos</strong> made with chimichurri-marinated beef, pickled onion salad, and jalapeño aioli. Torn between salty and sweet, we also tried the <strong>Chicken and Waffles</strong>, a crispy, juicy fried chicken breast atop a bacon cheddar waffle with maple mustard glaze and jalapeño-cinnamon butter. It was incredibly satisfying and hit every texture and flavor note.</span></p>
  1097. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Pair your meal with the <strong>Hot Honey Guava Margarita</strong> made with Tres Agaves Tequila, guava nectar, Triple Sec, lime juice, hot honey, and Tajin. Their bar also features an assortment of wines and ten rotating beers on tap.</span></p>

  1099. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Desserts here are generously portioned, artfully plated, and genuinely delicious. Our favorite was the multilayered <strong>Chocolate Stout Cake</strong> with whiskey caramel and fresh raspberries. Moist, rich, and big enough to take leftovers home.</span></p>
  1100. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The atmosphere is casual yet polished, and our server, Mark, made us feel especially welcome with warm and friendly service. We’re excited to return and sample more of the menu.</span></p>
  1101. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">If you’re catching a show at Wind Creek Event Center, Urban Table is just steps away and makes a perfect pre or post show dinner spot. </span></p>

  1106. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">For a refined and indulgent steakhouse dining experience at Wind Creek Bethlehem, <a href="https://windcreek.com/bethlehem/dining/chop-house-at-wind-creek">Chop House</a> is the place to go. It’s one of those spots where you’ll want to dress up a little, slow down, and savor every bite. Located on the casino level, Chop House has a sophisticated atmosphere that feels upscale without being pretentious. It’s adults only too.</span></p>
  1107. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">It&#8217;s no surprise the menu here focuses on USDA Prime cuts and Wagyu steaks. But there’s also fresh seafood and raw bar options, as well as decadent sides like Lobster Mac &amp; Cheese and Loaded Baked Potatoes. And while Chop House serves up all the classic steakhouse favorites, the menu offers a variety of other creative appetizers and signature dishes like BBQ Pork Belly with coleslaw, almond, golden raisin, cider dressing, King Salmon and Sea Bass. So even if you’re not in the mood for steak, there are plenty of incredible dishes to sample.</span></p>

  1109. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The wine list is extensive here, but we started our evening with a handcrafted cocktail. The <strong>Juicy Jackpot</strong> was a favorite, made with blanco tequila, passion fruit-vanilla syrup, lime, and a touch of champagne. It was so refreshing and made reading the menu even more enjoyable.</span></p>
  1110. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">To begin, we ordered the <strong>Lobster Bisque</strong>, which was rich and silky, and the <strong>Wedge Salad</strong>, topped with crispy fried onions, tomatoes, diced thick-cut house-made bacon, a creamy but mild blue cheese dressing. It was so good I’d return here just for that.</span></p>

  1112. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">For appetizers, we also tried the <strong>Ahi Tuna Tartare</strong>. It came with cucumber, avocado sauce, fried wontons, and radish with a lime Thai chili ponzu sauce. It was light, fresh, and a perfect lead into the main courses.</span></p>
  1113. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">For our main entrees we went with the seriously tender <strong>16 oz New York Strip</strong>, seasoned with house spices and cooked to a perfect medium rare. It came with whipped potatoes, asparagus, and a rich au poivre sauce on the side that took the flavor of the steak to another level. You also have the option to enhance your steaks with luxurious additions like jumbo lump crabmeat, sea scallops, or lobster. Next time!</span></p>
  1114. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">We also couldn’t resist trying one of their house favorites &#8211; the <strong>Seafood Pasta</strong>. It had trumpet pasta tossed in lobster cream sauce with mushrooms, spinach, cherry tomatoes, basil, and parmesan, and is then topped with lobster, mussels, shrimp, and clams. If you love seafood, this dish is a must.</span></p>

  1116. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Skipping dessert wasn’t an option. Our server Tembu suggested the <strong>Coconut Cream Pie</strong>, and it was incredible. It had a creamy coconut custard layered into a crisp, dark chocolate crust, finished with whipped cream, toasted coconut, and a crunchy golden almond tuile. A drizzle of chocolate sauce pulled it all together. It was the perfect ending to a meal that impressed us from start to finish.</span></p>
  1117. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Chop House is perfect for special occasions or when you just want a luxurious night out. The ambiance is warm and elegant, with plush seating and soft lighting. While the food was amazing, the service made the evening unforgettable.

  1139. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">We ordered the Popeye Pounder Pretzel. Warm, soft, and perfectly salted, it’s paired with creamy spinach-artichoke dip. Absolutely fantastic. Another standout was the Chip Shot Cheesesteak, grilled to perfection with flavorful and juicy seasoned beef, caramelized onions, and Cooper Sharp American cheese on a freshly baked roll. Other crowd favorites here are the Flatbreads, and their extra large gourmet hot dogs called “Dirty Dogs”. </span></p>
  1140. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Whether you&#8217;re there for a date or traveling with friends, Twisted Tees has a playful, high-energy vibe with flavorful bites. It&#8217;s a great time to be had here even if you only stop in for a drink and the service is also super friendly.  Either way, wear sneakers and something you’d feel comfortable getting sporty in.</span></p>
  1141. <p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Tip:</strong> Simulator lanes are rented by the hour, not per person, and can accommodate up to four players. Watch for their upcoming indoor mini golf attraction opening next door, and if you stop in for just one dish, make it the pretzel.</span></p>

  1184. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking for a peaceful escape that combines authentic history with modern luxury? In this Glasbern Inn review, I&#8217;ll share how this remarkable property in Pennsylvania&#8217;s Lehigh Valley surprised us with a truly special getaway.</p>
  1185. <p>This 150-acre estate delivers an authentic countryside experience that feels worlds away from typical hotel stays. At Glasbern, you&#8217;ll discover farm-to-table dining featuring ingredients grown right on the grounds, expertly restored 18th-century buildings brimming with character, and some of the most pristine countryside you’ll find in the Mid-Atlantic.</p>
  1186. <p>But what truly sets <a href="https://www.glasbern.com/"><strong>Glasbern Inn</strong></a> apart is how authentic it feels. This isn’t a themed hotel trying to look historic.</p>
  1187. <p>Every building, every path, and every meal reflects the spirit of the working farm it once was. It’s a place where chipmunks greet you on forest trails, and the bread pudding is so legendary the chef won’t give up the recipe.</p>
  1188. <p>And trust me, once you experience it, you&#8217;ll understand why we&#8217;re already planning our return visits for fall foliage and winter fireside dining.</p>

  1214. <p>The drive from the Philadelphia area to Glasbern Inn is straightforward and stress-free. It&#8217;s a direct shot up I-476 North from Philly (or I-78 from New York), less than two hours through <a href="https://DiscoverLehighValley.com"><strong>Pennsylvania&#8217;s Lehigh Valley</strong></a>.</p>
  1215. <p>Arriving at the Main House immediately sets Glasbern apart from standard check-in experiences. The staff greets you warmly at the front desk and takes time to personally orient you to the property with a detailed map, pointing out everything from your room location to the best trails. You&#8217;ll get a reservation for breakfast and they&#8217;ll also show you exactly which parking area is closest to your room.</p>
  1216. <p><strong>And here&#8217;s a nice touch:</strong> Coffee, tea, water, and fresh pastries are available in the Main House all day until dinner, so you never have to worry about getting hungry between meals.</p>

  1219. <p>Once you&#8217;re settled in on Glasbern&#8217;s sprawling property, you’ll feel an immediate sense of peace.</p>
  1220. <p>For this Glasbern Inn review, we visited on a sunny summer day and the lush grounds were so expansive and vibrant that we found ourselves slowing down just to take it all in.</p>
  1221. <p>Dating back to 1787, Glasbern showcases masterfully preserved buildings that each tell their own story: the Main Barn from 1870, historic Stables with their incredible authentic craftsmanship, and charming cottages that remind you of simpler times.</p>
  1222. <p>What strikes you most is how this feels like your own private village rather than a traditional hotel.</p>
  1223. <p>We had planned to explore the surrounding Lehigh Valley, but honestly, we didn&#8217;t want to leave Glasbern. We spent our two days completely relaxed, exploring the trails, and enjoying the property.</p>
  1224. <h2>A Legacy of Vision and Preservation</h2>

  1226. <p>As a member of <strong>Historic Hotels of America</strong>, Glasbern Inn represents one of the nation&#8217;s most authentic preservation success stories, and trust me, you can feel that authenticity the moment you arrive.</p>
  1227. <p>The <a href="https://www.glasbern.com/our-history/"><strong>Glasbern history</strong></a> is really interesting too. In January 2024, the <a href="https://jaindl.com/"><strong>David Jaindl Family</strong></a> became the new owners, purchasing it from longtime steward Al Granger and continuing a remarkable journey that began in 1985.</p>
  1228. <p><strong>Here’s the story</strong>. Al and his late wife Beth discovered this neglected farm in the heart of the Lehigh Valley after it had been sitting vacant for 13 years. Where others saw decay, Beth envisioned a place where guests could enjoy warm hospitality and fresh food grown right on the land. Al spent nearly four decades bringing that vision to life and remained active on the property into his nineties, even tending to the grounds himself.</p>
  1229. <h3>Authentic Reconstruction Over Modern Imitation</h3>

  1231. <p>Every restoration choice prioritized authenticity over convenience. The transformation began with the 1870 Main Barn, which initially served as the Grangers&#8217; home, guest lodge, restaurant, and reception area all rolled into one. The Stables weren&#8217;t even originally on this property. They were dismantled from a nearby farm, transported beam by beam, and meticulously rebuilt here. The Packhouse has an equally fascinating origin story, created by combining two rundown barns from another farm into what&#8217;s now a spacious twelve-room guest building. And <a href="https://www.glasbern.com/the-dairy/"><strong>The Dairy</strong></a>, which once housed actual cattle producing cheese and yogurt for sale, now serves as a six-bedroom luxury guest house that blends rustic charm with modern comfort.</p>
  1232. <h3>A Property That Keeps Evolving</h3>
  1233. <p>What I love about Glasbern is how it continues evolving while staying true to its roots. The Glasloft transformed from an open-air patio to an enclosed space with those stunning pond views we couldn&#8217;t stop photographing. The Grand Lodge evolved from a simple tented event space to a magnificent venue with twenty-foot ceilings and exposed beams that take your breath away. Even the wedding pavilion has an unexpected origin: it was originally built for the previous owner&#8217;s wife to enjoy pickleball.</p>
  1234. <h3>Carrying the Glasbern Legacy Forward</h3>
  1235. <p>The Jaindl Companies, with <a href="https://tkohospitalitymgt.com/"><strong>hospitality management by TKo</strong></a>, have embraced the spirit of preservation and care that Al and Beth Granger started nearly four decades ago.</p>

  1238. <p>When booking at Glasbern, guests can choose from accommodations spread across multiple buildings, each with its own character. We opted for the Stables Deluxe Suite, and it perfectly embodies those luxury rustic Pocono vibes that we are completely here for.</p>
  1239. <p>A highlight of our suite was the spiral staircase leading to a loft hot tub positioned dramatically above the king bed. Surrounded by exposed Amish framing, this was both a delightful surprise and a romantic touch. The combination of authentic 18th-century craftsmanship with modern luxury amenities creates an atmosphere that you simply can&#8217;t find anywhere else.</p>
  1240. <p>The plush king bed, ideal temperature, and quiet room gave us two great nights of sleep. After exploring all day, we&#8217;d settle in for movie nights in the spacious living area. There’s also a gas fireplace and a private outdoor deck that make this suite a true retreat.</p>

  1242. <p>We were also greeted with a stunning charcuterie platter that was next level. Artisanal meats, cheeses, fresh fruits, spreads, and veggies arranged so artfully and generously that we didn&#8217;t need to leave for lunch. I&#8217;d definitely suggest ordering this for exactly that reason, it&#8217;s a meal unto itself.</p>
  1243. <p>The location of the Stables is very convenient. It’s secluded with woodland views, but still only a short walk to the Main Barn for dining and other amenities. With parking right outside and no steps, bringing in luggage was effortless. But the coolest feature was definitely the woodwork throughout the building, adding old-world charm that connects you directly to Pennsylvania&#8217;s heritage.</p>

  1249. <p><strong>Executive Chef Christopher Feraudo</strong> brings over 25 years of culinary experience and recent recognition as a winner of the 2023 Landry&#8217;s Iron Chef competition to Glasbern. His passion for creating experiences through food is evident in every single dish. The restaurant sources the majority of its ingredients locally, with much coming directly from Glasbern&#8217;s own garden.</p>
  1250. <p>Our favorite dishes included the <strong>French Onion Soup</strong>. It’s a huge portion with rich, deeply developed flavors topped with that balance of crispy and melted cheese that hits just right. The<strong> Braised Short Ribs</strong> served over mashed potatoes with carrots and red wine demi-glace were super tender and expertly prepared. The <strong>Poached Maine Lobster Risotto</strong> featuring asparagus and sun-dried tomatoes was cooked to perfection with generous portions of lobster that made every bite feel luxurious.</p>

  1252. <p>But here&#8217;s where Chef Christopher works his magic. The <strong>Bread Pudding</strong> was simply the best we&#8217;ve ever had. This dessert somehow manages to be rich, super light, and creamy all at the same time. We tried to guess the technique and ingredients but when we asked Chef Christopher how he did it, he just smiled and wouldn&#8217;t tell us how he achieved this culinary miracle.</p>
  1253. <p>Keep your secrets, Chef. It just gives us another reason to return!</p>

  1264. <p>Tucked just off the main entrance is The Pub, and to be honest, it&#8217;s easy to miss if you&#8217;re not paying attention. But skipping it would be a mistake. This cozy spot opens at 4 PM and works well for a late lunch or drinks before dinner.</p>
  1265. <p>We kicked things off with <strong>Nashville Hot Wings</strong> that nailed the balance between sweet and spicy, followed by <strong>Turkey Meatball Parmesan</strong> that was comforting and full of flavor. Our server Bria was fantastic. She was warm, attentive, and made us feel like regulars from the moment we arrived.</p>
  1266. <p>There’s a great drink menu here too. We had a refreshing strawberry margarita, a Paloma, and a classic pint of Yuengling that went well with our apps. The pub offers a more casual alternative to the main dining room while maintaining the same commitment to quality and genuine hospitality that defines Glasbern.</p>

  1269. <p>While Glasbern&#8217;s exceptional dining might tempt you to never leave the restaurant, the property offers endless opportunities for exploration and relaxation across its pristine 150 acres that are impeccably maintained.</p>

  1272. <p>During our hikes around the property, we were delighted by frequent wildlife encounters that became something we looked forward to each day. Chipmunks would pop out and surprise us throughout our walks, baby rabbits were munching on grass, huge koi can be found in the ponds, and plenty of local birds added to the magical feeling of being truly connected to nature.</p>

  1275. <p>Glasbern&#8217;s wooded trails wind through flower-filled meadows, past tranquil ponds, and around historic farm structures. The trails range in length, with the longest just under two miles, making them ideal for sunrise walks, nature photography, or simply finding a quiet spot to relax.</p>
  1276. <p>Photogenic moments present themselves at every turn. There&#8217;s something wonderful to capture around every corner, from climbing the new stone steps on the hillsides that offer amazing views of the entire property, to the relaxing fountains and streams where you can find a shady spot to listen to the water and watch the wildlife.</p>
  1277. <p>The meticulously manicured grounds are largely the work of Kenny, the dedicated groundskeeper who maintains this vast property nearly single-handedly. Kenny was out there working the entire time we were visiting, and his stories about the property are as entertaining as they are informative. His dedication shows in every detail, from the pristine walking paths to the carefully tended gardens.</p>
  1278. <p>The property transforms dramatically with the seasons. When the leaves change in fall, it becomes incredibly stunning, while winter brings cozy fireside dining and easy access to nearby skiing.</p>

  1469. <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><em>Peddler&#8217;s Village summer 2025 brings safari-themed sand sculptures, Christmas in July, new food items, and 60+ shops in Bucks County, PA. Plus, <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/news/top-shopping-center-usa/"><strong>USA TODAY just named it the #2 shopping center in America</strong></a>! Here&#8217;s why it&#8217;s become one of my favorite summer escapes!</em></span></p>
  1470. <p>Heading to the shore is the default summer trip, but this year the thought of crowded boardwalks, beach traffic, and shielding a bucket of French fries from dive-bombing seagulls had me less than enthusiastic. Instead, I headed to<strong> <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/">Peddlers Village in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.</a></strong> One of Pennsylvania&#8217;s most unique destinations, Peddler&#8217;s Village is a colonial 18th-century style village with over 60+ open-air shops, a 67-room inn, and even a restored working 1922 antique carousel. With 8 full-service restaurants, a taproom, a wine tasting room, and gourmet treats of all kinds, Peddler&#8217;s Village is a playground for foodies.</p>
  1471. <p>With country charm nestled in every corner, Peddlers Village is like a real life Mayberry that attracts visitors from all over year-round. One of my favorite things about Peddler’s Village is that in between treasure seeking in quaint shops, you can also enjoy the outdoors as you stroll through winding brick pathways with lush blooming gardens. It’s a wonderful way to enjoy the summer weather while getting some shopping in.</p>
  1472. <p>This summer, the village transforms into an African safari adventure with life-sized sand sculptures, plus the magical surprise of Santa and Mrs. Claus taking their summer vacation here in July.</p>

  1475. <p>After a few trips to California in the late 1950s and early ’60s, Earl Jamison, a lifelong Bucks County resident who ran a farmers market, found himself in awe of the romantic storybook-style architecture he discovered in Carmel-by-the-Sea and Disneyland. So much so, he was inspired to create something similar back home. With an ability to turn his dreams into reality like Disney himself, Jamison got to work. Securing a $6000 loan from his uncle, Earl purchased an old 6-acre chicken farm in the small town of Lahaska, PA. Seamlessly blending the farm’s original historic buildings into the design of his charming colonial shopping village, Earl opened Peddler’s Village with only 1 restaurant (the Cock n’ Bull) and 14 shops. With much success and growth over the years, Peddler’s Village now spans over 42 acres and is considered one of the region’s favorite destinations for shopping and events year-round.</p>

  1506. <p>You’ll find chocolate treats like truffles, gourmet pretzels, caramels, turtles, nonpareils, sea salt bark, peppermint patties, cherry cordials, s&#8217;mores, and buckeyes that Skip makes with his own curated blend of imported chocolate. My mom, who’s a tough critic, took one bite of Skip’s almond buttercrunch and declared it as the best she’s ever had. I walked into Skip’s shop “not a fudge person” and left there obsessed with every fudge Skip offered us to try. Aside from chocolates, jelly beans, gummies, and fun candy gifts with themes like Pac-Man and I Love Lucy, Skip’s Candy Corner also carries a great selection of hard-to-find vintage candies as well as a line of gourmet nut-free confections manufactured at a special facility. This shop is special all year round, but don’t miss Skip’s special seasonal treats like his watermelon fudge that celebrates summer.</p>

  1521. <p>Now, here&#8217;s the real treat: <strong>The Greenology Plant and Terrarium Bar.</strong></p>
  1522. <p>This interactive experience allows you to unleash your creativity and build your own terrarium masterpiece. No green thumb? No problem! The friendly staff at Greenology will guide you through the process. Choose from a variety of vessels or bring your own, and let your imagination run wild as you select from a range of sand, pebbles, moss, shells, bark, air plants, and more to personalize your terrarium.</p>
  1523. <p>It&#8217;s an engaging and relaxing activity that&#8217;s perfect for all ages. Crafting your own terrarium is not only fun, but provides you with a remarkable living centerpiece that doubles as a work of art. We highly recommend this activity!</p>
  1524. <p>For another hands-on workshop, create your own <strong>Kokedama!</strong></p>
  1525. <p>Kokedama, meaning “moss ball” in Japanese, is a unique form of bonsai developed in Japan over five centuries ago as a more accessible alternative to traditional bonsai which required meticulous care and expensive pots. Kokedama offered a simpler, more affordable way for people to cultivate and display plants using natural materials like moss and soil.</p>
  1526. <p>How is it done? At the plant bar, you&#8217;ll choose a plant, round out the root ball, wrap it in damp moss and then secure it with twine creating a natural pot and hanger for a unique and beautiful aesthetic. Take your kokedama home and hang it in a sunny window or place it in a decorative dish.</p>
  1527. <p>What&#8217;s great is that kokedama is really low maintenance, and can last up to three years without having to be rewrapped or potted. Workshops start at $30 per person</p>
  1528. <p>Greenology is located next to the Village General Store on the corner of Street Road.</p>

  1560. <p><strong>Sticky Situations</strong><br />
  1561. <strong>63 Peddler&#8217;s Village. Lahaska, PA 18931</strong></p>
  1562. <p>One of the few foods that never spoils? Or that two tablespoons of honey could fuel a bee’s flight around the world? There’s no doubt that bees are incredible, but after a recent visit to <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/sabaialt/directory_listing/stickysituations"><strong>Sticky Situations</strong></a> and a chat with shop owner Stephen, I now have an even greater appreciation for these pollinators and the wonder that is honey.</p>
  1563. <p>Stephen, a food chemist who’s an expert in a technique called withholding, knows just what it takes to encourage plants to produce super-concentrated flower nectar that is super irresistible to thirsty bees and also determines the final flavor of their honey. So with 12 bee colonies buzzing on farms all across the country, Sticky Situations offers artisanal raw honey in an incredible selection of flavors I’ve never seen anywhere else. The honey here is 100% raw, which means it’s not heated or processed, and this is important in preserving the honey’s beneficial nutrients and flavors.</p>
  1564. <p><span style="font-size: 17px;"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10314" src="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8.jpg" alt="StickySituations" width="1000" height="678" srcset="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8.jpg 1000w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8-150x102.jpg 150w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8-300x203.jpg 300w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8-768x521.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /><noscript><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10314" src="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8.jpg" alt="StickySituations" width="1000" height="678" srcset="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8.jpg 1000w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8-150x102.jpg 150w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8-300x203.jpg 300w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/StickySituations_8-768x521.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></noscript></span></p>
  1565. <p>We had a great time tasting all the honey here while discovering where each was from and suggestions of what each could be paired with. We had to take home the dark chocolate, habanero, ginger, and anise honey, but their blueberry, raspberry, and green apple honey had me dreaming up ways I could infuse them into my next baking project. You’re going to want to stock up for yourself (and we don’t blame you), but stop in if you need a unique gift for the foodie in your life.</p>

  1568. <p><strong>Extra Virgin</strong><br />
  1569. <strong>64 Peddler&#8217;s Village, Lahaska, PA 18931</strong></p>
  1570. <p>To continue the gourmet tasting experience, we headed next door to Stephen’s sister store <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/sabaialt/directory_listing/extra-virgin"><strong>Extra Virgin</strong></a>. Inspired by a passion for the fresh high-quality foods he enjoyed growing up on the Amalfi Coast, owner Stephen opened Extra Virgin with the purpose of offering premium artisan olive oils and infused bottles of vinegar. This creative shop offers an in-store experience similar to a wine tasting. It’s all about the flavors here and as you browse the shop, you’re encouraged to give everything a taste. When you find your favorites, you can then have your oil and vinegar selections blended at their bar so you can discover which combinations speak to your palette oil. Pretty cool right?</p>
  1571. <p>One delicious flavor combination we tried that Stephen referred to as “Sicily in a jar,” was a mix of their Meyer lemon-infused olive oil and their Blood Orange Vinegar. Absolutely perfect for summer! Besides olive, Extra Virgin also has a variety of other flavor-infused oils like their green tea avocado oil, guacamole avocado oil, toasted walnut grapeseed oil, and sriracha grapeseed oil.

  1574. <p><strong>Pepper Palace</strong><br />
  1575. <strong>161 Peddlers Village, Lahaska, PA 18931</strong></p>
  1576. <p>Our philosophy is, the spicier the better, so when we discovered a hot sauce tasting room just a few steps from our room, we were determined to find new ways to set our mouths on fire.</p>
  1577. <p><a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/sabaialt/directory_listing/pepper-palace"><strong>Pepper Palace at Peddler&#8217;s Village</strong></a> carries dozens of delicious hot sauces, all of which you can try before you buy. They even offer complimentary tortilla chips!</p>
  1578. <p>Pepper Palace specializes in all-natural products that are handcrafted in small batches. They offer Wild to Mild hot sauce, salsa, dips, seasonings, barbeque sauce, marinades, pepper jellies, rubs and more.</p>
  1579. <p>The hottest sauce at Pepper Palace is called “The End: Flatline Hot Sauce,” and it’s made with reapers, ghost peppers, scorpion peppers, 7 pot chocolate douglah and a hefty dose of pepper extract. If you crave the burn, this one&#8217;s for you! To give it a try, customers must sign a waiver and be 18 years old or older.</p>
  1580. <p>Although we didn’t go full steam ahead on the hottest of the hot sauces, we did quite a bit of tasting and found some new favorites including Serrano Lime, Scorpion Death Stalker Hot Sauce, Horseradish Oyster Hot Sauce, and their Ghost Pepper Hot Sauce.</p>
  1581. <p><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/1f4a1.png" alt="💡" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> <strong>Tip:</strong> Pepper Palace also has a great deal where you can mix &amp; match any three items in the store and get one free.</p>

  1599. <p>One of the many things we love about Nissley Vineyards is that they always seem to find a way to make drinking a glass of wine even more enjoyable. In the summer that means wine slushies! When the weather’s nice, we recommend you sit out front on their patio to enjoy the quaint village vibes, but their airy lounge is nice too if you prefer to stay cool inside.</p>

  1609. <p><strong>Mama Hawk’s Kitchen and Coffee</strong><br />
  1610. <strong>58 Peddlers Village Rd, Lahaska, PA 18931</strong></p>
  1611. <p>When my caffeine craving hits in the village, one of my favorite go-to’s is <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/sabaialt/directory_listing/mama-hawks"><strong>Mama Hawk’s</strong></a>. This adorable coffee house with modern farmhouse vibes and both indoor and outdoor seating serves up a variety of specialty coffees and delicious house made baked goods, bagels, cookies, muffins as well as paninis and pizzas. But there’s one thing you can’t miss here: the cinnamon buns. Fluffy, chewy, and perfectly glazed, these little pillows of heaven are baked fresh daily in a variety of special flavors. The coffee is great here, but whatever you do make sure to grab some buns to go. You can thank me later.</p>

  1621. <strong>18 Street Rd, New Hope, PA 18938</strong></p>
  1622. <p>Walking around in the village on a hot summer day, we made a beeline for <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/sabaialt/directory_listing/ninas-waffles-ice-cream"><strong>Nina’s Waffles &amp; Ice-Cream at Peddler&#8217;s Village</strong></a> when it was time for a treat. Along with small-batch ice cream in some seriously delicious flavors, Nina’s specializes in Liege waffles. Another Belgium born waffle made famous by the city it was named after, Liege waffles are made with a brioche-style yeast dough instead of a batter.</p>
  1623. <p>Before being pressed they’re sprinkled with a coarse sugar that creates a lovely caramelization on the outside of the waffle once heated. Delightfully dense and chewy, what sets these waffles apart is the slight crunch you get from the caramelization of the sugar along the waffle’s irregular edges. <span style="font-size: 17px;"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10291" src="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4.jpg" alt="Nina’s Waffles" width="1000" height="667" srcset="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4.jpg 1000w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-150x100.jpg 150w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-300x200.jpg 300w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-768x512.jpg 768w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-360x240.jpg 360w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /><noscript><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10291" src="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4.jpg" alt="Nina’s Waffles" width="1000" height="667" srcset="https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4.jpg 1000w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-150x100.jpg 150w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-300x200.jpg 300w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-768x512.jpg 768w, https://onbetterliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Ninas_4-360x240.jpg 360w" sizes="(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></noscript></span>A freshly made Liege waffle at Nina’s is a treat all on its own but we topped ours with a scoop of their Madagascar vanilla ice cream with chunks of saltine cracker brittle, bits of toffee, and chocolate called Mad Crack. One bite and we fell in love. If you’re grabbing some ice cream to walk around with, waffle cones and cups are also available. Don’t miss out on the toppings like dulce de leche, whipped cream, and sprinkles!</p>

  1626. <p><strong>Cock &#8216;n Bull</strong><br />
  1627. <strong>Route 263 and, Street Rd, Lahaska, PA 18931</strong></p>
  1628. <p>The first restaurant in the village, and celebrating over 60 years in business (simply amazing), the <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/portfolio-items/cock-n-bull-restaurant/"><strong>Cock ‘n Bull</strong></a> has been a tradition for the locals here for generations. Recently they’ve revamped the menu with fresh, new and seasonal dishes inspired by southern and international cuisine while preserving favorite long-time Cock ‘n Bull classics like their <strong>Chicken Pot Pie</strong> and <strong>French Onion Soup</strong>. We ordered and loved the <strong>Buttermilk Fried Chicken</strong> appetizer served over cornbread and drizzled with bourbon honey syrup. It’s incredible.</p>

  1630. <p>We also tried several new dishes that showcase why Cock &#8216;n Bull has been a local favorite for over 60 years. <strong>The Roasted Apple Flatbread</strong> with ricotta cheese, baked apples, fresh greens, spicy honey, and apple-citrus vinaigrette was absolutely incredible. It&#8217;s listed as a starter, but the portion is so generous it could easily be a light meal to share. We also loved the <strong>Sunday Brisket Tostadas</strong> with roasted carrot purée, pearl onions, corn tostada, pickled onion sauce, and matchstick potatoes.</p>

  1632. <p>For our main course, we ordered the <strong>6oz. Filet Mignon</strong> with burgundy reduction, and it proved exactly why Cock &#8216;n Bull is famous for their steaks. It was perfectly cooked, incredibly tender, and bursting with flavor. Don&#8217;t leave without trying one of their house-made desserts!</p>

  1634. <p>We couldn&#8217;t resist ordering both the <strong>Strawberry Crunch Cake</strong> with layers of strawberry cake, cream cheese buttercream, and strawberry shortcake crumbs, and the <strong>Seasonal Crème Brûlée</strong>. It&#8217;s currently funnel cake flavored, keeping with their playful seasonal themes, and it was absolutely delicious!</p>
  1635. <p>With Cock &#8216;n Bull&#8217;s colonial Pennsylvania country charm and consistently excellent service, there&#8217;s no doubt we&#8217;ll be making a return to see what they come up with next!</p>

  1641. <p>Located in the Cock &#8216;n Bull Restaurant lobby, the <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/portfolio-items/red-fox-lounge"><strong>Red Fox Lounge</strong></a> turned out to be so much more than we expected. What started as a plan to swing by for cocktails became an entire evening. The atmosphere was just that inviting! Every Thursday from 5:30-7:30 p.m., you can enjoy live local artists performing during Local Picks nights, but we recommend arriving early for their weekday happy hour (Monday-Friday, 4:00-6:00 p.m.) featuring $7 cocktails, $6 glasses of wine, and $5 draft beers.</p>
  1642. <p>The happy hour food menu is equally impressive, with affordable bites like pastrami sliders, buffalo cauliflower, and charcuterie boards &#8211; all <strong>just $7 each</strong>. The bartenders here are true experts who can guide you through excellent cocktail selections. We tried cocktails like the Yuzu Lemonade and Cosmopolitan, both expertly crafted and perfectly balanced.</p>
  1643. <p>Whether you&#8217;re grabbing pre-dinner drinks, enjoying the full Cock &#8216;n Bull menu, or staying for Local Picks live music, this cozy lounge delivers quality cocktails and local entertainment in a casual, inviting atmosphere that might just convince you to extend your visit.</p>

  1647. <strong>Rt. 263 and, Street Rd, Lahaska, PA 18931</strong></p>
  1648. <p><span style="font-size: 13pt;">We had an absolutely delightful meal at <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/harts/"><strong>Hart&#8217;s Tavern</strong></a>. This place exudes a super casual and timeless old-school pub vibe that never goes out of style. As soon as we heard that their menu had been completely revamped by their new chef, we couldn&#8217;t wait to try the new dishes.</span></p>
  1649. <p><span style="font-size: 13pt;">To start off, we had <strong>Pretzel Bites</strong> served with beer cheese and dill pickle dip. We also enjoyed the <strong>Elote Corn Bites</strong> served with tajin aïoli, queso fresco, and cilantro.</span></p>
  1650. <p><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Next up was the <strong>Caprese Sandwich</strong>, a true classic with a twist. It showcased marinated tomato slices, creamy fresh mozzarella, and a delightful basil pesto, between perfectly toasted brioche bread.</span></p>

  1652. <p><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Moving on to the main courses, the <strong>Italian Roast Pork Sandwich</strong> is absolutely stellar. It’s filled with tender pulled pork, sweet pickled peppers, a tantalizing long hots spread, aged provolone, and garlic aioli. The Buffalo Fries on the side turned up the heat and added an extra kick of flavor.</span></p>

  1654. <p><span style="font-size: 13pt;">For dessert, we couldn&#8217;t resist trying the <strong>Banana Pudding Parfait</strong>. It was a creamy vanilla custard and banana mousse delight, topped with whipped cream and white chocolate crumble.</span></p>

  1665. <p>For dessert, the <strong>Chocolate Chip Cookie Sundae</strong>, <strong>Carrot Cake</strong>, and <strong>Lemon Mousse</strong> are our favorites.</p>
  1666. <p>They also offer a yummy breakfast with some really great coffee. Later in the day when the weather’s nice, Happy Hour is the perfect time to relax on their outdoor deck.</p>

  1674. <p class="whitespace-normal break-words">At Earl&#8217;s, you can&#8217;t go wrong with their <strong>5-hour Braised Molasses Short Ribs</strong> served with artichoke barigoule and crispy yukon gold potatoes, or any of their perfectly prepared steaks. The <strong>Meatballs</strong> over creamy polenta with grated fontina always hit the spot. Don&#8217;t skip dessert either. Their <strong>Vanilla Bean Crème Brûlée</strong> with seasonal accompaniment is the perfect sweet ending.</p>

  1677. <p class="whitespace-normal break-words">We attended the <a href="https://peddlersvillage.com/event/ena-winedinner061225/"><strong>Coast to Coast Wine Dinner</strong></a> in June, and we were absolutely blown away. This amazing event featured four off-the-charts delicious courses (plus a surprise course) created by <strong>Chef Evan Gentile</strong> and his talented team, each paired with both West Coast and East Coast wines. The tastings were served blind, making it fun to guess which wines were which while putting our palates to the test.</p>

  1682. <p>For dessert and a decadent finish, the <strong>Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Mousse</strong> was complemented by two dessert wines.</p>
  1683. <p>Will we be going next year? We hope so! The pours and servings were generous, the wine was fantastic, and the food was incredible. The culinary and wine team that guided the event made it a lovely and memorable evening.</p>
  1684. <p>Prices may change in the future, but for only <strong>$99 per person</strong>, inclusive of gratuity, this dinner was an unbelievable value and a gift from the village for anyone who attended. This event was limited to 45 lucky guests, so if you&#8217;re interested, put it on your calendar for next June and book fast. Other recent event dinners have included a Chocolate and Wine Dinner and a Chocolate and Bourbon Dinner.</p>

Visiting midweek had us feeling like we had the place to ourselves. Certain shops do close by 5 pm during the week, so be sure to give yourself enough time to explore.</span></span></p>
  1754. <p><span style="font-size: 17px;"><b>Enjoy Plenty of Outdoor Dining </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8211; Whether you’re concerned about Covid or just love being outside in summer, 5 restaurants in the village offer full-service outdoor dining restaurants. All the restaurants offer takeout that can be enjoyed at one of the many outdoor tables. Picnic blankets are welcome in designated grassy areas.</span></span></p>
  1755. <p><span style="font-size: 17px;"><b>Parking is Free:</b><span style="font-weight: 400;">  The village is surrounded by many parking lots which are all free for visitors. Guests at the Golden Plough Inn are assigned personal parking spots close to their rooms, located throughout the village. </span></span></p>
  1756. <p><span style="font-size: 17px;"><b>Make it a Getaway</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> &#8211; Day trips here are great, but staying overnight is our favorite way to roll. There’s no need to rush out to beat the traffic and we can relax between meals. The Golden Plough Inn rooms are lovely and quiet, plus in the mornings, the gardens here are such a lovely place to enjoy your coffee. It’s really great for romantic getaways, families, or shopping trips with friends.</span></span></p>
  1757. <p><span style="font-size: 17px;"><b>Bring a Cooler Bag &#8211;</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> There are so many great things to try here, but honestly, there’s only so much a person can eat in a day.  Instead of missing out, we like to pack a cooler bag to keep our gourmet treats or leftovers cool on the ride home. In the meantime, if you’re staying overnight, the Golden Plough rooms also have mini-fridges to keep your food and drinks cold until you’re ready to leave. </span></span></p>
