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! TGIF! I hope your week has been good. Do you have any plans this weekend? Yesterday I shared some exciting news over on our travel blog – we put an offer on a house! We hope to close around September 2, which is just a few days before school starts here. It’s a small house (read more about it here) with a small backyard but it has an adorable chicken coop and a couple raised beds. I know I announced this in Rise and Shine a few days ago – but I shared a lot more about it in this blog post.
I can’t wait to start blogging about chickens and gardens and recipes again. . . it’s been difficult for me to share about our travel and about living in an Airstream because I feel so unrelatable. I’ll be sharing all about the process of transitioning back to the house and living simply in a small space – I can’t wait!
