Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. Published Monday through Friday – as I’m able.

Good morning! How are you doing today? How was your weekend? Did you do anything fun? We hung out around the house, mowed the yard, cleaned the house, baked some cupcakes, watched some football. . . .it was delightful. Hope you had a great weekend, too.



Crock-tober is just around the corner and I’m hoping to feature some affordable, easy to make, slow cooker meals during the entire month of October! I’m looking for your favorite slow cooker recipes. If I feature your recipe here on the blog you’ll get a $10 Amazon gift card! We have done this the last two years and I think some of my favorite recipes come from this series! You can read more about how to submit your recipes here. I’m already getting some really awesome looking recipes coming into my inbox – you all rock!



Save the day – this upcoming Saturday, September 27, more than 100 national parks will be waiving the entrance fees in honor of National Public Lands Day! Go to the National Park Service website for a list of participating parks. The National Park Service also has an easy-to-use directory of parks by name, location, activity and topic.
