Hello there lovely readers!
I have been busy as a bee working on the Glo Bakery as well as the Oh She Glows website. I am currently in the midst of planning to transfer my website over to bluehost.com so that I am able to do so much more with my website!
The problem is trying to figure everything out! I am surrpised by the lack of information in some areas that I am trying to research.
The good news is I am getting there slowly but surely! There are going to be some big + exciting changes on Oh She Glows over the next few months and I am so excited to see them take place.
I am planning on completely overhauling the design of Oh She Glows to make it more fun, user-friendly, and professional in its appearance.
I have taken Andrew’s advice and scoped out a few websites that I absolutely love. Now I just have to get some quotes from website developers to put the ideas into action!
The new website design for OSG is going to be fun, flirty, and feminine looking with a spunky edge. I can’t wait!
I also have lots and lots of ideas to improve the website such as:
- An Oh She Glows forum/message board where myself + readers can interact
- An Oh She Glows Newsletter/mailing list so I can send out weekly updates about OSG
- A Place where you can submit an email comment right from the website itself
- A link to my Glo Bakery where there will be a secure way to place orders online
I have so many ideas just oozing out of my pores!! lol.
That is how I know that this is such a passion for me…because I can spend the better part of the day on it and it doesn’t feel one bit like work.
Ok, I lied. It feels like work when I have computer glitches and technical difficulties…I can never get away from that completely! lol.

Lunch Break
I was so caught up in the website domestics that I didn’t break for lunch until about 2pm (breakfast wasn’t until 10:30am!). I am a bit off schedule but that is ok.
For lunch I had a fabulous bowl of no salt added Black Bean soup by Healthy Valley:
With a large dollop of my 50 cent homemade hummus (I made another batch yesterday!)
And 2 pieces of Eziekel toast + Vegan spread:
I found 1/4 of a pack of Ezekiel bread in the freezer and I almost screamed with joy. Let’s just say the no name whole wheat bread is NOT the same! However, I have stuck with my budget and only bought this no name stuff since.
I think I will be making my homemade spelt tortillas much more! :)
After lunch I was still hungry so I filled up with a Green Monster:
I drank it as I mulled over color samples for painting!
It was refreshing and so tasty with the carrot added. I felt like I was on a tropical island!
Ok time to get back to work!
I have a list of things to get done today:
-
Finish cleaning house (didn’t get done yesterday due to the car fiasco)
-
Organize/overhaul office (it is a disaster!)
-
Continue along with OSG domestics/Glo Bakery
-
Renew Credit card/change name
-
Respond to Oh She Glows emails
There’s more but I am going to be realistic and will just leave the list at that!
See you TONIGHT for more fun!

I’m looking forward to the new additions – and the bakery! I think your site is great already – I’m sure your new ideas are going to make it fan-freakin-tastic!
I’m loving all this new stuff on your site!!! HOORAY!
oooooh, i am so impressed with all your ideas and your drive to make them reality! you have an amazing business sense (and food sense!).
very excited for your new ideas, i have wanted to do more with my site, but am not the most tech-saavy, so easily intimidated :)
I wish I had more time to put as much energy into my own site as you do. Damn job getting in the way. Looking forward to see what you come up with.
YAY for secret hidden Ezek!! I just bought store brand english muffins for 99 cents :( They are NOT the same, i might go back to Thomas or Ezekial and skim off some money elsewhere!
I am looking forward to your website’s growth and development.
I would certainly scream with delight if I found Ezekial in my freezer@
