Halloween Treats

October 31, 2013 by Julie 1,595 Comments

This Halloween is full of treats!

The treats began last night in our house when Ryan and I exchanged our anniversary gifts. I totally dropped the ball and didn’t end up finding anything leather, so I veered from the traditional anniversary gift themes and gave him clothes and a little box of goodies.

3 year anniversary gift

I attached little cards to various food and beverage items that I know Ryan likes and used the name of the item in a sentence about why I love being married to him!

For example, attached to a bag of Combos pretzels, I wrote a card that said I love you because “you’re the perfect COMBO-nation of playful, loving, supportive and fun!” On a bag of Smartfood popcorn I wrote, “You’re SMART and challenge me… in a good way!” It was a fun project and I hope it conveyed to Ryan just how much he means to me.

Gift Idea - label favorite foods and use the name in a sentence about why you love them

We don’t normally go all-out for anniversary gifts, so I was shocked when I opened Ryan’s gift to me and found a beautiful new leather purse that can be both a cross-body purse or a clutch.

Tory Burch Clutch

He went above and beyond and saved for it and I absolutely love what he picked out! I was shocked and so impressed and told him that I will wear it all day and all night! He definitely put my gift to shame. Thank you, Ryan!! 

Treats continued at work today. Even though I work at a gym, we’re not above celebrating with a little candy!

DOTS Candy

My coworkers made fun of me because I grabbed a box of DOTS. Do people not like DOTS? I am so out of the loop. It’s not like I was loving on Bit O’ Honeys or something! Give me a little credit!

Once I was done working and teaching, I headed home for a late lunch which came together in no time at all thanks to leftovers.

I reheated last night’s crock pot dish of pulled chicken, potatoes, carrots and onion and ate it with an apple and a Reese’s peanut butter cup.

It was delicious!

And now it’s time to share a little Halloween treat with you!

YourReebok Giveaway

I have a feeling quite a few of you will be pumped for this giveaway!

This month, through my on-going partnership with Reebok, I was able to experience the company’s YourReebok page which allows people to customize shoes using various colors and personalization touches.

Design Your Own Reebok Shoe

Since the Reebok Nano Speed has quickly become by all-time favorite Reebok shoe, I knew they were the pair of shoes I wanted to use as my design guinea pig!

I spent a little too long on the website and think I designed four different shoes before I finally settled on a certain look.

Reebok Nano Design Your Own

Personalized Reebok Shoes

And yes, you can personalize the back of the shoes! I ended up opting out of that feature because I couldn’t think of anything more creative than my name to put on the back of my shoe, but I’m sure people come up with some awesome nicknames or funny taglines!

I played around with super bright colors, muted colors, lots of white and lots of color but in the end I put together a shoe with lots of purple and gray and a touch of light blue. reebok custom nanos

They should be arriving sometime next week and I am pumped to put them to good use!

And now it’s your turn to customize a pair of Reebok shoes!!! One PBF reader will win a gift card to customize the Reebok shoes of their choice.

To enter this giveaway, simply comment below, answering one (or all) of the following questions:

  1. Which pair of Reebok shoes would you customize?
  2. What colors do you think you would incorporate into your design?
  3. If you personalize your shoes, what would you want them to say?

I will randomly select a winner on Monday morning.

Good luck!!!

Be sure to follow PBFingers on Instagram and Facebook!

I'd love to connect with you! I am always so grateful when you let me know you tried one of my recipes or workouts and tag me in your photos or updates. Thank you so much!!!

    I would do the nano speeds and probably spend hours coming up with different color combos!

    I would order the Nano 3.0 – it’s time for a new pair of running shoes. I like the pink mesh with the violet base overlay and black toe overlay. I’d see about having “Think Big”, “Be the Change” or “It’s the journey” personalized on the shoe.

    I would pick the Reebok Nano Speed – agree with you, they are great! I would make them orange, green and white – orange is my favorite color, and I think those colors look awesome and fun together! 🙂 I don’t know if I would write anything on them – I have several “mantras”, so maybe one would win over the other…

    Thanks for the give away! 🙂

    I would pick the Reebok Nano Speed, and definitely make them blue and grey. I have the 3.0s and would love the speeds!

    I would love to try the nano speeds! I have heard so many great things about them. I have the nano 2’s and can imagine the speeds are just as great. I think I would do crazy colors, almost rainbow. I love the crazy colored shoes. If I put a name on them, they would probably just say Heath since that is what everyone calls them. Thanks for this opportunity. (I am not sure if my other comment went through. I did it on my phone, but my phone has been acting weird so forgive me if there are two Posts.)

    I would customize a pair of shoes that I could cross-train in. I typically wear worn-out running shoes and often feel a bit unstable on my lateral movements!

    The Nanno speed in a combination of two gorgeous neon colors (probably blue, pink and purple)…so much fun just like your workouts need to be….and definitely I would have something like “training mode” or “training beast” 🙂 like I really mean it 😉

    I think I would pick the Nano Speeds and I love all the bright neon colors but I also love purple. So maybe purple and hot pink? As far as personalizing goes I’m not sure I’d put anything on them? Really, I don’t like clothing with writing but it’s such a small spot that maybe I’d change my mind. That’s boring! I know. But if I win, I’ll make an effort to not be boring!

    What a fun giveaway 🙂

    I love the Reebok crossfit 2.0 (the pink design is so awesome!) I’d probably use pink and maybe some green or purple – I think it’s fun to have bold, bright colors. It motivates me to run faster and work out harder! I would definitely write “Boston Strong” or “617” (Boston’s area code) because as a runner from Boston, I’m so proud of the citizens of our city for how they came together in the face of horrible tragedy this year. We’ve come a long way and I’m prouder and prouder to call this place home. <3

    I LOVE my realflex scream ones, so definitely those. That website is SO much fun, so I designed myself a pair of purple & blue ones! I’m not sold on customizing my shoes with writing, but, I’d still be entirely happy to have some bright & colorful ones.

    Wow! I am so excited for this giveaway! Thank you soooo much for this opportunity to win a pair of these awesome Reebok shoes! I’m praying for some favor in this giveaway. This giveaway couldn’t have come at a better time. You know you need new sneakers when you’ve got holes in your shoes and grass and dirt is getting stuck in the creases. 😉

    I’ve never heard of the nano Reebok sneakers, but I love how they look! I would love to win the nano speeds. I would use some gray and pink colors in my customized shoes, and I would put a Bible verse on the back. I would most likely use the verse found in Philippians 4:13.

    Thank you soooo, soooo much for this giveaway. I am so excited!!! May God bless you exceedingly and abundantly beyond all you could ask or think! Have a wonderful night!

    Love,
    Mariah

    I would customize a pair of cross trainers to wear for Jazzercise! I would probably choose neon colors, because I am loving fun colors lately, and I might even personalize them with Jazzercise, because I am such a Jazzaholic and love to represent the workout!

    I would love to try the Reebok Nano’s in bright colors! After my last pair of bright colored shoes, I’ll never go back 😉 I can’t think of anything to creative other than my name as well, but it’s worth the extra personalization for more motivation!

    I would do the ZigLite Run shoes with some purple and silver incorporated into the design. If I were to personalize the shoes, I would probably put something like, “13.1 and counting” on them, as I’m hoping to start training for my first marathon in the spring. :0)

    I would design them with some turquoise or teal (my fave colors) and a little gray and white. I would also put “MAD” on the back because it’s my nickname (short for Madeline) and would remind me to be a beast during my workouts! 🙂

    I would choose the cross fit shoe, and would play around with blues and purples. On the back I would put Dreamer, because it is my dreams that keep me striving for success in all I do.

    I would love to incorporate dark grey and baby blue into my workout shoes since I love those two colors together! I am a huge fan of the new customizing feature, it’s so personal 🙂

    I would customize the RealFlex Scream 2.0’s with Gravel and Excellent Red! AKA Grey and Dark red! I already have a super bright pari of Nikes and would like to go for something more understated that matches more of my workout attire!

    I’ve been in a workout funk lately and I think having new sneakers would definitely put me back on track! I love the bright colors, I have always stuck to grays/blacks/blues so I’m excited to upgrade my old shoes!
