Bradley had already opened an Etsy shop in 2010, selling a few handmade items such as hair clips. When she found higher-end felt suppliers, Bradley added 9×12 and 12×18 felt pieces in 24 colors to her store, and sales shot up. “We grew super quick.” By the end of the first year customers were requesting felt by the yard, and Bradley complied. After a fulfilling career in designing luxury interiors, Sue is creating products that include hand-crafted and high-quality furnishings for A.

She combed the internet, but retail felt sellers were scarce. She bought samples to test, including a 100 percent wool felt, which she loved, but thought was too expensive to appeal to crafters. Her first project was a huggable, pillow-sized stuffed monster for her toddler. Using craft felt bought from a big-box store, the red rectangular huggie had ribbon hair, button eyes, and pockets to hold love notes.

One major challenge was the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The brick-and-mortar store closed and while some employees worked from home, Bradley did all the shipping herself. Meanwhile, online orders increased as people across the country stayed home. Even though Benzie continues to ship within 24 hours please expect delays in delivery by the USPS. Keep in mind that USPS Priority and First Class is shipping a several days later than expected and does not consider a package lost until 15 business days have passed.

I feel that much of my success has been because of careful money management in addition to slow but continual steps forward,” Bradley says. In 2016, Bradley opened a retail shop in a historic area of downtown Plainfield, Illinois. The storefront takes up about half of the 1,000-square feet, with the other half used for her office, storage, a photo staging area, and a small kitchen. Growing up in Malibu in the 1960’s, Sue spent the majority of her time immersed in nature, riding horses, hiking the Santa Monica Mountains, and getting lost in her thoughts amongst the tide-pools at Point Dune. Sue’s innate love for the outdoors became even stronger, when she sailed around the world at 20, with family and friends in a sailboat they purchased and renovated themselves. As chairman and founder of sfa design since 1996, Sue has led the firm to complete acclaimed projects in destinations throughout the United States, U.A.E, Asia, and Mexico.

Endless inspiration from nature’s patterns, colors, and shapes. In 1996, Sue turned her focus toward creating a boutique-style firm, large enough to execute projects of grand scale, but personal enough to truly provide the direct personal attention for each client. The firm abides by Sue’s strict philosophy of fully appreciating the client’s vision, lifestyle and point of view in order to intelligently reflect them in all aspects of design. Sue’s ignited passion for all things aesthetic led her to take a position at Design 1, a Los Angeles-based design firm in 1976. During her two decades directing the company, Sue led Design 1 to become the sixth largest design firm (with over 90 employees) in the United States, including international offices in Hong Kong and Paris. Before the pandemic, Bradley had been looking for a larger retail space and more warehouse room.

If you're going to be spending hours "singing" songs from Wicked and Les Mis while drinking bottles of soju in K-Town, it's probably not a great idea to do all that on an empty stomach. So start your night at BCD Tofu House (a mini-chain that started in LA) on 32nd Street for a spread of banchan, hot stone bibimbap, and one of their signature tofu stews. There might be a wait when you get here, but the two-story space is large, and they usually do a good job of getting parties in and out. Because the menu has a lot of options, this is an ideal place to go when you know you're in the mood for Korean food, but you're not quite sure what you want to order. If you're hungry after your karaoke night—and, let's face it, you will be—you can come right back here because they're open until 3am on Fridays and Saturdays.

The spicy pork was delicious and worth a reorder.Prices for lunch are about 3 dollars cheaper than dinner. Spicy raw crab in spicy sauce served with Assorted Soon Tofu.

LOCATIONS

We came to BCD Tofu house since the weather has been cold lately and my friend wanted some tofu soup. The meats were all high quality (can tell a difference between this and something like Red Palace). The short ribs were super tender and flavorful, fatty of course.

Nearby Restaurants

I’ve tried the seafood pancake, galbi, raw seasoned crab & the tofu soup here and they are all phenomenal. Honestly the food here is beyond comforting and I know that if I ever get heartbroken BCD is the first place I’ll go, crying over a bowl of sizzling hot soondooboo. Mixed rice & vegetables in Hot-Stone bowl served with Assorted Soon Tofu. My friends ordered different variations of the tofu soup, but I got the E8 Hot Stone Bibimbap, with Beef. All of the orders came with your typical standard side dishes and a piece of fried fish.

We are always grateful for suggestions for new locations and interest in BCD’s growth. Our family always looks carefully before making any decision to open new locations so that we can best represent our top notch taste, quality, and service to all our fans. Please check our “Locations” page for more details on your nearest BCD branch. The Bibimbop was good and reminded me of food served on Kim’s convenience from Netflix.

Hee Sook Lee’s recipe for soondubu, a steaming bowl of soft tofu in a spicy, bright-red beef bone broth, was so secret, she wouldn’t even share it with her husband. Visit one of our locations spread throughout the Tri-State Area. Visit one of our locations spread throughout Orange County.

They gave us a lot of sides, the kimchi is the best kimchi I’ve had in awhile. It was more on the sweet side and didn’t have that over powering vinegar taste when compared to a jarred kimchi. They give you so many side dishes which we loved and ate them all up and they give you a small fried fish as well! And they even put water into our stone rice pots so we could eat it later.

Being our first time here, we had no idea that the meal comes with a choice of tofu soup. We both ordered the seafood tofu soup and adjusted the spiciness level. The BCD story starts with Hee Sook Lee a first generation Korean immigrant who loved to cook and share with her family. Her mother-­in-­law owned a restaurant in “Bukchang Dong” (district in Korea, which BCD is named after), where Mrs. Lee gained early training in the Korean food industry.

Hours

I mixed up the entree and I like how there were crispy rice pieces as a contrasting texture. I love that all the regular entrees all come with Soon tofu soup and of your choice! My daughter loved their bulgogi, it was moist and full of flavor. I enjoyed their Mackerel along with the complimentary banchan, side dishes included pickled veggies and Kim chee.

Around $20-$40 dollars per person which varies in range from just our tofu soup and appetizers to our combo menu. In other words, korean food here is LEGIT and delicious. All the side dishes are even good — honorable mention for the cucumber kimchi. I could eat 10 plates of the tiny portion by myself. My Beef Hot Stone Bibimbap came in a hot stone pot so the rice was kept warm. The vegetables were really fresh and I like how there was a good variety.

After immigrating to America, Mrs. Lee chose to focus on Soon Tofu among thousands of other Korean foods, due to its superb taste and health benefits. She had a vision to be successful in America, and built her dream one bowl at a time. Her legacy continues on everyday through the efforts of her hardworking staff who put in all her traditions and recipes into each meal served. Mixed rice & vegetables served with Assorted Soon Tofu.

Visit one of our locations spread throughout Los Angeles County. BCD Tofu has 12 locations spread throughout all of the country. However, please call in advance for very large parties (20+) as we try to accommodate depending on time, location, and availability.

Some are open 24 hours a day, for those who work odd hours or for young people hungry after a night on the town and craving Ms. Lee’s secret soondubu or other Korean dishes on the menu. She spent long nights developing her secret recipe for Korean tofu soup, a dish that became a phenomenon while her restaurant grew into a chain. Due to the love and attention of our customers, we are always fielding questions about expanding to new locations. At this time, BCD does not operate on a franchise model as we are a family run business nor do we have any future plans to do so.

All persons 16 years of age or older in The Bahamas are tried as adults in court. If you are arrested for drug possession, you should expect to spend at least one night, and possibly longer, in custody. Stay away from drug traffickers, who may be often armed and violent. The Bahamas requires compliance with regulations to divert child abduction similar to U.S. policies. If you lose your passport on the ship, you should fill out a lost property report with the guest relations department on board. Traveling with a passport cover is also wise since it helps to keep your passport in pristine condition.

Required Travel Documents

Carnival offers a wide range of shore excursions that get you up close and personal with the scenery and culture of The Bahamas. You’ll have your choice of activities that bring you wonderful things to eat, water sports, adventures and more. When choosing a port, you should consider the relative ease of arrival and the possibility of extending your vacation to explore the port city before or after your trip.

Whether you desire adventure, luxury, or exploration, High Seas Cruising is your compass to unforgettable cruise vacations. U.S. citizens sailing on a closed-loop cruise departing and returning to the same U.S. port don’t need a passport to cruise to the Bahamas. Most Bahamas cruises are closed-loop sailings, which means you won’t need a passport if you’re a U.S. citizen. When it comes to domestic cruises, nothing beats a trip to Hawaii.

Stay up-to-date with the most current travel requirements and recommendations via the U.S. Embassy in The Bahamas COVID-19 Information page, the CDC’s list of required vaccines and medicines for entering The Bahamas, or through the Office of the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas. So, before you book that flight, make sure your passport book is valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned entry date so that it is ready for your trip and your return home. Even though Hawaii is a U.S. state, all of our cruise itineraries require you to travel with a U.S. passport book or card. There are plenty of reasons to take a cruise, including great food, plentiful activities and lots of sunshine. If you’re looking for a Bahamas cruise, you’ll want to be aware of the documentation requirements for your trip.

It’s your responsibility to ensure you have all the proper documentation to board the ship and enter each of the countries your cruise visits. And government authorities may require you to have a visa or meet other requirements. Understanding the entry and exit requirements for traveling to and from The Bahamas is crucial for a smooth and hassle-free journey. Whether you’re traveling by air or sea, a valid U.S. passport is a must. Remember to check the validity of your passport to make sure that it has at least 6 months from the date of entry to The Bahamas as well as 2 blank pages for stamps.

Always review and heed local weather and marine alerts before engaging in water-based activities. Commercial watercraft operators have discretion to operate their vessels regardless of weather forecasts; injuries and fatalities have occurred. Due to these safety concerns, U.S. government personnel are not permitted to use independently operated jet-ski rentals on New Providence and Paradise Islands. If children under the age of 16 are traveling internationally by air, they will need a valid U.S. passport. Regardless, we always recommend traveling with a U.S. passport book, in case there are any inconveniences during your trip. If you take a closed-loop cruise to Bermuda, you can leave your passport at home and travel instead with a state-issued ID and an original birth certificate.

Entering The Bahamas

However, be aware that even on a closed-loop cruise, your daughter might need to present a passport at foreign ports your cruise ship visits. This depends on the specific requirements of the islands or countries you’ll be docking at. If an emergency arises while you are staying in The Bahamas that requires you to return to the U.S. by air, a passport card will not be sufficient. To enter or exit The Bahamas by air, you must have a valid passport book.

Most hospitals and doctors overseas do not accept U.S. health insurance. Read the country information page for additional information on travel to The Bahamas. Never swim alone, regardless of your age or level of swimming skills. Be mindful of sharks when swimming and engaging in water activities, as there have been recent fatal and non-fatal incidents involving sharks.

While a passport is the most commonly accepted form of identification for international travel, there are alternative travel documents that may be accepted. Long story short, whether or not you require a passport to enter The Bahamas depends on what mode of travel you’re using. For air travel, passports are mandatory, but for sea travel, a Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative-compliant document, such as a passport card or a passport book, is acceptable.

A passport is generally required for U.S. citizens if you are taking a cruise that starts in the Bahamas and includes stops in other countries, such as the Caribbean cruises or Mexico cruises. The reason for having a passport during your cruise is that you will be visiting other countries, and a passport is the commonly recognized identification and evidence of nationality accepted by most countries.

Best cruise destination for bucket-listers: Antarctica

Italy, France and Spain are all celebrated for their distinctive cuisines and award-winning wines, which makes a Western Mediterranean itinerary perfect for culinary enthusiasts. For adventurous couples -- the kind of people who want to take a surf lesson, ride a Jeep over rocky terrain or fly in a helicopter over molten lava -- a cruise in Hawaii is the ultimate bonding experience.

If you aren’t quite ready to buy, you can “heart” cruises to save them as favorites to refer back to later. When looking for the best site to book a cruise, don’t be put off by CheapCaribbean.com’s overly specific moniker. The site’s vibe is beach-oriented and a bit cheeky, with a front page that can overwhelm—but click on the “Cruises” tab, and a cleaner interface appears. There you can search by cruise line, ship, destination, departure date, and departure port.

The brainchild of unconventional business mogul Richard Branson, Virgin Voyages appeals to vacationers averse to the traditional cruising experience who crave a hip, party atmosphere. Ships are blissfully void of children — cruisers must be over 18 — making it a prime choice for an adults-only cruise. However, if an upscale cruise experience is what you seek, Windstar Cruises can deliver. The line's seven-night Classic Caribbean itinerary aboard Wind Surf should be on your radar. Additionally, many cabins on Disney's ships feature extra pull-down bunks and pull-out sofas that will allow four or even five people to stay in a single cabin.

From there, the ship visits St. Maarten, St. Thomas, San Juan, and Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. You'll now find these zones on Caribbean-focused vessels like Norwegian Encore, Norwegian Breakaway, Norwegian Getaway, Norwegian Epic and Norwegian Prima. Each of these solo cruiser zones, which are unrepeated in the industry for now, includes dozens of cabins for solo travelers, all clustered around each other. There is also a private lounge with a bar and television where solos can mingle at daily hosted happy hour gatherings. When it comes to catering to solo cruisers, the king of the hill in the Caribbean is Norwegian Cruise Line — at least among the big-ship lines. The Miami-based cruise operator in 2010 began adding entire zones for solo travelers to the center of every new ship it deployed to the region.

The company's customer service is available seven days a week, from 9 a.m. While you may find comparable prices on different sites, each site has its own benefits, offers and cancellation policies. Sue has been writing about cruising for 20 years and is lucky enough to have sailed all seven continents.

Just along from here is the fish market, where locals enjoy lunch in the sunshine on the long, bright days of summer. Head for Blue Lagoon Island to laze in a hammock and drift over coral reefs, or feel the adrenaline rush on the thrilling water slides at the Aquaventure water park. If you’re busy dreaming about your next escape to sea, now is the time to start planning your 2024 cruise vacation.

Our partners cannot pay us to guarantee favorable reviews of their products or services. The West Coast packs in Hollywood glamor, majestic coastal scenery, and culinary adventures. A cruise here will whisk you from the cool fashion scene and artisan cafes of San Diego to a gossip-fueled tour of the opulent stars’ homes in Los Angeles.

Some itineraries also include a "Pixar Day at Sea," which features a day of playing, dancing, swimming and dining with your favorite Pixar characters. Prices start from $2,959, double occupancy, and include taxes, fees and port expenses. With at least two sea days per sailing, passengers will have ample opportunity to explore all the attractions the ship has to offer. The majority of the itinerary takes passengers to places you can only get to by sea. In Cape Verde, a destination laced with Portuguese colonial history, stops include Santiago, Fogo, Santo Antão, and Boa Vista. In the Bissagos Islands, protected as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, guests will spend time learning about the Bijagós people, most of whom live on subsistence farming and fishing and with a traditional system of spiritual beliefs.

Some people demand (and are willing to pay for) the highest levels of luxury. The best cruise for a family with kids isn't necessarily the same as the best cruise for a couple looking for romance. The cruises, which are round trip from Reykjavík in Iceland, start with a charter flight to the tiny town of Narsarsuaq, Greenland, which has a population of less than 200. From there, passengers will be immersed in the wilderness of the Greenland ice sheet. From November 2023 through February 2024, Windstar Cruises’ 312-passenger Star Legend will be based in the Middle East, exploring the Persian Gulf on 10-night sailings between Muscat, Oman, and Dubai. French line Ponant will be exploring the subtropical islands of southern Japan this year, including Ishigaki.

If you’re looking to explore the western Caribbean, consider a cruise to Costa Maya, an exciting destination located in the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico. Admire historic forts and the colorful old center of San Juan, Puerto Rico, or unwind on the long, sandy beaches of St. Kitts, St. Maarten, or Tortola. With sunny weather year-round and endless palm-fringed beaches to choose from, the Caribbean is one of the best places to cruise at any time of the year.

Known as Studio cabins, the tiny solo rooms in these complexes measure just 100 square feet. I particularly loved its futuristic "Jetsons"-like design and the multicolored mood lighting. The eight-night expeditions embark July 14 and July 21, with fares starting from $9,140 per person. Fares start at $3,499 per person, with the first departure setting sail on November 23. The Ponant sailing is from Keelung, Taiwan, to Okinawa, and will embark on March 24. Other lines calling on Sicily this summer include Windstar Cruises, Star Clippers, Variety Cruises, and Sea Cloud Cruises.
