Rise and Shine is my way of starting the day with you – almost as if we’re chatting over a hot cup of coffee or tea! I share my favorite deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help you save time, money or energy. Published in the morning on Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! How are you today? It’s been a week since my surgery and I’m still taking it easy. My next appointment is next Tuesday and I’m hoping they’ll let me ditch the crutches then.
Yesterday we got 11 new boxes of LuLaRoe inventory and we had a big live sale last night. We’ve scaled back live sales as I heal and it felt good to be back in the saddle again. LuLaRoe has been such a blessing to us and I hope to share more about that soon. I am giving away a $150 in LuLaRoe credit if you want to enter for a chance to win here.
Since surgery we’ve been making simple dinners at home. We’ve been trying not to eat out too much – even though it’s easy to justify with everything on our plate with me being laid up. We’ve had Mississippi Pot Roast, Chicken Santa Fe, macaroni and cheese, salad kits and leftover Crockpot ham from Easter. We also made Suddenly Salad – and we added fresh salami, olives, chick peas and hard-boiled eggs (also leftover from Easter) to give it more flavor. It’s a good go-to salad to have in the fridge without having to heat/cook anything up. I’d love to make it from scratch – instead of the box, if you have favorite pasta salad recipes – please share!
I think today I’m going to place a ClickList Fred Meyer grocery order this morning so my husband can just pick it up after work tonight. Then, instead of spending 45 minutes shopping after a long day of work, he can just swing in – pick it up and head home. 🙂 Keeping fresh options in the house means we’re less likely to eat out. I wish they’d even deliver – that would be even more awesome.
And I just have to say, I sit here thinking about today . . . and I just can’t believe it’s April 20 already. Does anyone else feel this way? I mean we’re 2/3 thru the month and then we have May and Mother’s Day and . . . before we know it, we’ll be done with the school year. It’s crazy to think about!
