I have recently participated in a few functions that normally I would purchase new clothing. I used what I had and also gave away clothes to a women's shelter and Good Will.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Smart Seafood ChoicesMany states and countries have advisories on eating fish. Find out what is advised for your region. Do you think your diet choices fall within these guidelines? What steps do you need to take to make sure that they do?
Kelli Davis 3/06/2024 6:14 AMMaryland's advisory for eating fish. DO NOT EAT Shark, Swordfish, King Mackerel, or Tilefish because they contain high levels of mercury. Eat up to 12 ounces (2 average meals) a week of a variety of fish and shellfish that are lower in mercury.
I am choosing within the guidelines and I will begin asking for sustainable seafood when purchasing or eating at a restaurant.
