A couple of weeks ago, Que Rica Vida had a re-launch of it’s website, and they celebrated with style.
Que Rica Vida is set to become the new go-to site for Latina Moms. With information ranging from recipes and products to babies and health advice. The website is conducted completely in Spanish! Along with celebrities and a host of hispanic press, for the first time ever, they were able to bring Latina bloggers together.
My trip started off with a little hiccup, but I was able to get to Miami safe and sound. The anticipation of finally getting to meet my fellow Latina bloggers had my heart pounding the minute I landed. Since I was late, I had little time to get ready. I was in my hotel room for about 15 mins. before leaving to meet everyone down stairs. As I got into the elevator, I knew that the moment had finally arrived. I was going to meet my “blog” hermanas.
I stepped out of the elevator and I recognized the familiar faces of the bloggers that are based here in Cali. Then the hugs and squeals started!
No one could have prepared me for the felizidad that I felt in meeting everyone. We all kind of knew each other by reading our blogs. Keeping up with and supporting each other on-line is easy, but to meet in real life was simply surreal. We were treated to a dinner, in which we were able to meet and great media from all over the country.
I had the chance to chat with some of the chicas, then it was off to get what little sleep my excitement would let me have.
The next day we had the day to ourselves. These pictures are just a glimpse of how Latina Bloggers took over South Beach.
The beach… Ay mama, guys! Growing up in California and living so close to the beach, I always thought to myself, eh… you’ve been to one beach, what’s another? Boy was I wrong….
It was crystal blue. The air was clean. The humidity was tolerable. The view…. amazing!
The event itself was nothing short of amazing. Karla Martinez, Adamari Lopez, Angelica Vale, Dra. Aliza and Ursula Mejia-Melgar were simply radiant. The event had a mock “Iron Chef”, Latino Style that was great to watch.
After there was a great reception that was first class all the way. Throughout the event, all I could say to myself, was “Wow, Liz… look where you’re at. I am truly blessed.” Daily, I close my eyes to re-live those moments. The memories I made there will forever live in my mind and in my heart.
Later I will show you what being high on Latina Bloggers and the Miami sea air does to someone (if I have the guts to post the video here)!
Thank you General Mills, Hispania PR and Que Rica Vida for blessing me with such an unforgettable trip.
**Disclaimer** I was invited to Miami by General Mills. My whole trip was sponsored, so that I can take part in the re-launch of Que Rica Vida. Although I had the time of my life, these thoughts, posts and PICTURES are my own.

00Mars Needs Moms is out in theaters. I was part of a select few to see the movie a while back, but we were under a press embargo, until now! This out- of-this-world adventure is super cool and as a mom… I am after the story behind this film. Now, by reading that short synopsis, you can see that the movie has a very fictional feel to it. Very Sci-fi! If you know your kid likes...
