Eh?

Oh She Glows is in my apartment!  My blog world and my real world are colliding! πŸ™‚

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 Ò€œEpicÒ€).  And yes, she actually says Ò€œEhÒ€ in real life!  I heart Canadians.

 

We went to a local restaurant called DexterÒ€ℒs 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 Ò€œscene,Ò€ but it was too late out for everyone to get motivated to go out ourselves. 

 

IÒ€ℒm about to craaaash!  See you in the morning.

  • Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) March 27, 2010, 8:01 am

    Fun, fun, FUN! πŸ˜€ 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. πŸ˜‰

    Gorgeous pics! πŸ˜€

  • 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 πŸ™‚

    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?

  • Cynthia (It All Changes) March 27, 2010, 10:40 am

    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

  • Jolene (www.everydayfoodie.ca) March 27, 2010, 11:54 am

    I think I say “hey” instead of “eh” πŸ™‚ 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
