Born in New York City in 1866, amateur photographer Alice Austen relishes life as she lives and works in Staten Island, New York. But when she meets Gertrude Tate, she finds a love she never thought possible. The two women live together for several decades, and neither is ever romantically linked to anyone else. Yet the true nature of their relationship is only hinted at in Alice's photographs. "Looking in the Shadows" tells the story of what is not visible in Alice's pictures-the love and devotion in Alice and Gertrude's hearts. Through letters and interior monologue, author Amy Khoudari reveals the women's devotion. In spite of class and custom obstacles, the couple's lifetime commitment to one another intimately shows their deep and lasting love. In time, Alice and Gertrude, two very middle-class women who had been members of New York's elite society, succumb to poverty and illness, and are ultimately forced to live apart. But their love endures, tying them to one another in spite of their physical separation. Touching and bittersweet, "Looking in the Shadows" reveals the power of a once-in-a-lifetime love that defied all convention.

Food scale
Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size, Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size
This product is worth the price. The only thing is that it kind of doesn’t work sometimes when you are trying to switch the unit and you might have to double click (as shown in my video) other than that the product works perfect for measuring my food and even my liquids. It’s the perfect size not too big and bulky but it also isn’t that small. As you can see in my picture it’s small enough to fit in my drawer (I don’t like to leave it on my counter) it’s a tiny bit bigger than an Alexa.i also like that the price isn’t to high . I would definitely recommend this product! It’s a sturdy product it doesn’t move when you’re putting any items on it. It’s easy to clean off as well. Another thing is it takes batteries ( it takes AAA batteries, just 2 of them) and I liked how it came with batteries inside of them already .

Lightweight, accurate, and perfect for everyday use
Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size
This kitchen scale is a great tool for anyone doing meal prep, baking, or tracking food. It’s lightweight and compact, so it doesn’t take up much space and is easy to store when not in use. Accuracy is spot on—it measures consistently in grams and ounces, which is perfect for portion control and precise recipes. The tare function works smoothly, making it easy to weigh multiple ingredients in one container. The stainless steel surface is a nice touch—it looks clean and is easy to wipe down after use. The display is clear and easy to read, even in lower light. For the price, it’s hard to beat. It does exactly what you need without any unnecessary extras. Pros: -Lightweight and compact -Accurate and consistent measurements -Easy-to-use tare function -Stainless steel surface (easy to clean) -Great value Cons: -Small size may not fit very large bowls -Basic features (no advanced tracking) Overall: A reliable, no-frills kitchen scale that gets the job done. Perfect for meal prep, dieting, and everyday cooking.
