Last week, May 20, I went on my long awaited trip to Miami, Florida for General Mills' re-launching of their Que Rica Vida website gala event. The lifestyle website features General Mills products, recipes, healthy living tips, coupons, and much more. It is fully en Español targeting the Latino women market.
I'm in the second row, among the amazing Latina bloggers, wearing an orange sweater.
Yes! I said sweater.
The gala event was attended by more than 100 Latino editors, reporters, and bloggers☺ from across the country.We were treated to an exclusive preview of the re-vamped website. Its many new features include friendlier navigation of its enhanced content, making it easier to explore while providing users with a more interactive experience. Latina consumers will now be able to rate and post their comments about the articles, videos and recipes they find on the site. They will also be able to share their own recipes by uploading it to the site which will become part of the QueRicaVida.com's ample listing of meals.
Latina celebs were lighting up the stage!
