Denver deals: Amazon Prime tips, Wicked the Musical, Summerfest and more

Do you think of Frontier Days in Cheyenne as just a rodeo? Maybe a country concert you want to go see? I did too until I learned about the amazing food available there. Now, I think of it as a fun food paradise. I can’t decide if Elote, Bacon Churro Fries, Fruity Pebble Shrimp Pineapple Bowl or maybe the secret unreleased items will be the top of my list. Or maybe the desserts like the Dole Whip or the Deep Fried Oreos washed down with cucumber mind lemonade is what I’m most looking forward to. Either way, I plan to try them all – and hope you try them all when you go (you should go) too! Amazon Prime Day. July 16-17 will be the annual Prime Day at Amazon.

Favorite travel hacks & tips for smarter trips

Your Mile High Mamas recently took a much-needed break. To relax and refresh with family and friends. We have done a fair bit of traveling in the past few weeks. Ever your resource, we would like to pass along five of our favorite travel hacks. 1.     Don’t put all your “eggs’ in one basket. Pack a few of your items in other people’s luggage. My daughter lost her luggage on a flight from Denver to Paris. She was without her bags for three days. While Paris may not be the worst city to have to shop in for a few new outfits – it really can wreck a holiday budget. (Think about having to buy all those essentials. So the next time we go on a trip, she will pack at least one outfit and few of the ‘essentials’ in my bag – and I in hers.   2.   ...

Denver Deals: Amazon Prime, Target Circle Days & Walmart deals

I was recently sent some 505 Southwestern salsa and grilling sauces. I was also able to try Yucatan guacamoles. They were so tasty and fresh. Our favorite grilling sauce was the Sweet and Spicy (the pineapple mango was a close second) sauce which we put on top of grilled chicken. The Yucatan guacamole was fantastic (it comes in both a squeeze pack and a tub). They were fresh and delicious with chunks of real avocado in there! These sauces will make you look like a grill star for your next BBQ.    Amazon Prime Day. July 16-17 will be the annual Prime Day at Amazon.
