If you’ve ever wanted to own an alpaca, the market trend right now is that they are not nearly as expensive as they used to be.
Alpacas are calm, easy-going animals with incredible fur to be used in all sort of clothing products, if knitting is your thing.

And since honey is one food that doesn’t spoil, chances are that you’ve had that same jar of honey for a few years — and doesn’t it look just as crystal clear now as it did when you first purchased it?
