My Story - Caroline Craven, theGirlwithMS

Meal Kits, Food Delivery and Living with MS

We should do what we enjoy, while we can.
Caroline Craven, @theGirlwithMS, at McKenzie River Lavendar Festival
You all know as I do that things change.  For better or worse, things change.

One of my favorite enjoyments in life is cooking.  In fact its just all things food.  From agriculture and farming to cooking shows and playing in the kitchen.

But there are days when my MS gets in the way.  Big time in the way.  And these are the days where we need to practice Self Care.
Knives become dangerous.  Standing on two feet becomes a chore.  Many of us have been there but what can we do?   Eating out becomes expensive, boring and can often contain the incorrect foods for people with MS.

There are a growing number of options for people who need assistance making their meals.

*By purchasing here you help Girl with MS and Caroline Craven continue their MS advocacy work.*
Grocery Delivery

Ever have those days where your MS just says “No way, Darling, you are not going to the super market today”.   And, despite your best efforts, you realize it is true, for this day.


Groceries and products like sundries, household items and more can easily be purchased online.   Of course you have your general Amazon prime, the provider of everything.  But many of you realize how important it is to support your local markets and businesses.

  3. BUY MAINE LOBSTER ONLINE
    The American lobster, Homarus americanus, is found on the east coast of North America, from Newfoundland to North Carolina, with Maine Lobster being the most abundant and delicious. In 2018, Maine Lobster catch was 119 million pounds, over $484 million worth, the world leader. Oh, and its the best tasting lobster too! BUY MAINE LOBSTER ONLINE



    Cold clean waters are the key to such tasty crustacean. Besides the normal colored lobsters, Maine lobstermen have also discovered rare blue, yellow, red, and white ones. Aside from the white albino lobsters, all turn red when cooked. Lobsters grow to legal one pound size in about 7 years. By molting – they molt or shed, their shells about 25 times in the first 5 years of life.

    No one has yet found a way to determine the exact age of a lobster because it sheds its shell so often, but they can live to 100 years. Lobsters “smell” their food by using four small antennae on the front of their heads and tiny sensing hairs that cover their bodies.

    WHERE TO BUY MAINE LOBSTERS ONLINE
    Lobster blood is usually a gray or slightly blue color, but it can sometimes be orange, green, or light pink.



    A lobster egg is the size of the head of a pin. A 1-pound female lobster usually has between 8,000 to 12,000 eggs, which are attached to the underside of her tail. She carries the eggs for about a year until they are released as larvae. Only about 1/10 of one percent of those eggs will live past 6 weeks.



    The largest lobster in captivity is at the Maine State Aquarium in Boothbay Harbor. The aquarium is also home to a blue lobster, which are quite rare, approximately 1 in 1 million.

    Lobster is a $500 Million per year industry for Maine.
