Eh?

on March 27, 2010

Oh She Glows is in my apartment! My blog world and my real world are colliding! 🙂

Before Angela and Eric arrived, I cleaned the apartment and drank a Chocolate Cherry Bomb:

Which contained 1 cup almond milk, 1/2 banana, 15 cherries, Nesquik, and 2 cups raw spinach.

As well as 1/4 a melon:

And some pita chips with hummus:

Angela arrived in her lovely rental convertible. She brought me Glo Bars and some other cute shirts (including a shirt that reads “Epic”). And yes, she actually says “Eh” in real life! I heart Canadians.

We went to a local restaurant called Dexter’s for the meet-up.

Bloggers:

Husbands:

New friends:

I had a beer and a glass of wine, plus this AMAZING veggie sandwich. The sandwich includes grilled veggies, brie cheese, and sprouts of the best crusty bread. The brie totally makes this sandwich.

I snagged a few fries from the Husband as well!

All in all, it was a very fun night. We drove Angela and Eric around downtown quickly so they could see the Orlando “scene,” but it was too late out for everyone to get motivated to go out ourselves.

I’m about to craaaash! See you in the morning.

lmaoooo..I love Angela and her blog 🙂

And yes..we all pretty much do say eh! (us Canadians)…although some of us wouldn’t want to admit that lol!

Fun, fun, FUN! 😀 I’m French-Canadian and always wish I would have picked up on using the word “eh.” I think you have to grow up saying it though, otherwise it just doesn’t come out naturally…haha. 😉

Gorgeous pics! 😀
Beth @ Beth's Journey to Thin March 27, 2010, 8:14 am
My sister married a Canadian and uses the “eh?” and even though they’ve been married 6 years (!?) it still makes me laugh. Looks like a fun night!!
Anna @ Newlywed, Newly Veg March 27, 2010, 8:15 am
Haha…I was really taken aback the first time I met a Canadian and he said “Eh.” I guess I thought it was just a rumor that they did that 🙂

Have so much fun with Angela!
Lily @ Lily's Health Pad March 27, 2010, 8:20 am

Dexter’s is one of my favorite restaurants in Orlando. We went there the night before we ran the Disney Princess last year! One question…what chocolate is in your chocolate cherry bomb?
- caitlin March 27, 2010, 9:33 am
  i just use nesquik but sometimes i make it with honey and cocoa

I wonder what the husbands talk about? I think I’d like to be a fly on the wall.

Deva (Voracious Vorilee) March 27, 2010, 10:29 am
Sounds and looks like an awesome time! I also clean 15 times before having guests – something about wanting everything to be just-so!
Jenn (www.j3nn.net) March 27, 2010, 10:34 am
Looks like so much fun! That sandwich is to die for. Droooooooooool

I’m always nervous to meet bloggers because you feel like you know them but you don’t really.

But that looks like a blast!
claire March 27, 2010, 10:56 am
I want that sandwich!hehe…cc
Kelly March 27, 2010, 10:56 am
So jealous of your bloggy meetup, there needs to be one in the Philadelphia area!
Jolene (www.everydayfoodie.ca) March 27, 2010, 11:54 am
I think I say “hey” instead of “eh” 🙂 But maybe not!
Emily Eats and Exercises March 27, 2010, 12:44 pm
I want to try that chocolate cherry smoothie! (though I think you accidently left the chocolate out of that ingredient list.)
- caitlin March 27, 2010, 12:55 pm
  i use nesquik 🙂 hehe i added it to the list.
Samantha Angela @ Bikini Birthday March 27, 2010, 3:04 pm

Heather (Heather's Dish) March 27, 2010, 7:41 pm
how fun…and that’s really cute that she says ‘eh’ in real life 🙂 your sandwich sounds great too – i’d totally hit that 🙂
Carolyn @ lovinlosing March 27, 2010, 8:00 pm
What fun! I wish I lived in an area with more bloggers. 🙂

Sarah March 27, 2010, 10:07 pm
Lol I just read the ohsheglows post and saw that she said you had a “sweet southern accent.” Is that true, do you drawwwwwl? Haha, I’ll have to start adding an accent in my head when I read your posts from now on!
- Caitlin March 27, 2010, 11:44 pm

Ashley March 30, 2010, 10:12 am
