Hell has frozen over.
He’s pretending he doesn’t like it (nice frown!). But, oh yes, yes he does. He likes it very much.
No cat nip required!
I turned to Eric and I said….oh…my…GOD…look!
(Nice tongue!)
This photo above and the fact that he loves his bed pretty much made my week. :D What could top this?!

Yesterday turned out to be quite a productive day. Eric and I ran some errands, cleaned the kitchen top to bottom, organized our office, and cleaned the back hallway. We also worked on the online shopping cart and added the FAQ page. Check it out if you haven’t read it on the website yet!
Last night I got caught up on my lack of sleep too! I went to bed around 9:45pm and slept until about 8am. Holy moly!!!!!! I guess I was tired. I am trying to mentally prep myself for my long run today (12-13 miles) and it may be my last long run like this before my half marathon (which is just 13 days away!!!).

I received an email from a reader named Sarah this weekend. Sarah took the plunge and tried making my Vegan Peanut Butter and Jam Glo Bites.
Here are some more pictures from when I made them that I didn’t have time to share with you in my previous post:
So gooey and delicious!!!!!!!!!
Drooling yet?

I just made the PB + J Glo Bites.. and delicious doesn’t even BEGIN to describe how good they are.
Although I’ve always been very happy with your recipes, I must admit, i was skeptical; pb and j sandwich ? mmm. pb and j in a cute little tart? ehh, cute idea, not so sure.
ALL my original worries were totally wrong. These are AMAZING and one of my new fav recipes. Plus, they’re easy, look adorable, and are easy to transport (ie work school road)
thanks for another one for my recipe file!!!!
Thanks Sarah!
Want to make these yourself but don’t have any nut butter? Well, read on for a huge giveaway!

Recently, my friend and her husband opened up their own business called Baby Enchanted.
Baby Enchanted is an upscale retail website specializing in the most luxurious and unique products for babies and toddlers.

Whether you are looking to design an entire nursery from scratch or you need that extra special baby shower gift, Baby Enchanted’s exquisite selection of items from celebrity go-to designers will enable you to find the perfect item every time."
Because Bree is such a fabulous gal, she wants to do a fun contest giveaway featuring one of the food blogosphere’s favourite treats- Barney Butter! And guess what Canadians? She is even opening it up for you as well! As you may know, Barney Butter is not sold in Canada (to my knowledge!).
These would be awesome for making the Vegan Peanut Butter and Jam Glo Bites. :)

Stay tuned this afternoon for two new Glo bars I created especially for PRE and POST workout recovery! I am so excited to unveil these. I have been working hard testing them out and trying to figure out the perfect combinations. I may be revealing information about US Shipping!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will also be doing another product review for Project Natural Glow. :)
The Baby Bags are great! Stylish without looking “Mommy-like: :)
okay, I think I need to make these bites soon :) glad he finally liked his bed!
YAY!!! I bought my cat a “cat condo” about a month ago and was SO excited when she finally started sleeping in/on it rather than just sleeping on the couch. I think part of cats’ initial aversions are due to the scent of the object… they like to let it “air out” for a few days. :)
When I have a baby one day, I would love to have one of those camo crown bling metro wrap. My boyfriend is in the Army and that be so cute to have!
Just found them on facebook and have become a fan as well!
Can’t wait to see what the US shipping rates will be for Glo Bars. I would love to try some!
I LOVE Avery CL Crib bedding! Too cute for words! I don’t have a twitter but I’m now a fan on facebook! They don’t sell BB where I live so I’m DIEING to try some!
I like the Stretchmark Minimizing Cream. I would get it for one of my friends who has stretch marks leftover from having her baby!
I also became a fan on Facebook.
PS Your bites just get more and more tempting.
I love the pettidresses and my 4-y old would definitely go for the Bubble gum color!
I am now a fan on Facebook and oh how I have wanted to taste Barney butters for so long but I can’t find them in Canada…
I love the Bumble Bee Engine; how cute!
Also now a fan on Facebook.
AWWW what a cute and lovely website! I LOVED the picket fence shelves and the bunny lamps in the decor section! I want them…for myself though, lol.
I can’t get over how beautiful your cat is!
Just visited the site, and I love the organic hooded towel! Hooded towels are adorable to begin with, but make em organic and it’s a whole new level of love for me!

Oh my goodness. He love his pretty bed. :)
The Baby Enchanted website is so pretty! Very nice look. I went through some of the items and feel in love with this diaper bag: http://www.babyenchanted.com/baby-bags/messenger/blue-damask-messenger-diaper-bag. I don’t even have a baby, but I probably could find a use for the bag! Heheheh.
Also I tweeted the contest because I can’t access Facebook at work and didn’t want to forget later!
Ha, knowing nothing about babies myself, I thought I wouldn’t find anything on that site. But I’m in love with that cute baby blue tricycle! It’s gorgeous! :D Way better than the rusty one I had growing up… Off to do some tweeting :)
oh my gosh- I just spent 20 minutes looking at the Baby Enchanted site! That stuff is adorable!!!!! I don’t have kids, but if I did, I would LOVE the All Star Becn toy chest! So cute :D

I have yet to have children or get married for that matter, but I really like the blue bubblegum day tote. It is super cute, and why not look cute with a baby in tow?
