📢 IMPORTANT UPDATE — THIS MONDAY’S MEAL PREP

We are so very sorry, but we will not be able to prep meals this Monday due to our personal home move taking much longer than expected. 🏡📦

We truly hate having to make this change and appreciate your patience and understanding more than you know. ❤️

The good news is that we will extend this week’s menu into next week, so if you already placed an order, your order will automatically roll over to the following Monday.

If that date no longer works for you, that is absolutely okay! You can choose to cancel your order and receive a full refund.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We appreciate each and every one of you and are so grateful for your continued support as we juggle this move and the business. ❤️

Thank you for understanding and for being so patient with us! 🙏🏼
