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! Thanks for being patient with us as we (and my Queen Bee team) have been wrapping up some summer vacations and family time. Summer is our chance to soak up these precious times, so I appreciate you understanding when we miss Rise and Shine a bit in the summer. We are quickly getting back into a routine.
Jeremy and I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Los Angeles for a LuLaRoe Convention. It was an amazing trip and we learned a lot. We also spent two days at Disneyland parks – without kids – it was so weird . . . but so fun to ride all the rides we wanted, eat whatever we wanted and be on our own schedule. We started LuLaRoe back at the beginning of the year and we have enjoyed it so much as a business – the whole trip was a blast. Our LuLaRoe Facebook group is here.
We made a big batch of fajitas for dinner last night. Of course that means I made up a batch of my favorite spanish rice to go with it. We’ll be eating burrito bowls for leftovers today – so easy!
