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’ll admit I’ve spent quite some time playing around with the custom designs, too, so I completely get what you’re talking about – who wouldn’t?!
    Anyway, I think I’d go with the RealFlex Scream 2.0 and definitely incorporate coral into the design.

    My favorite color is green so they would have to have that on them and I’d probably put my name on them.

    I would design and personalize the womey ziglite rush. I am totally in love with the pink and grey with just a touch of black. To personalize I would put my maiden name, which is what my calls me anyway. It would put me in touch with my younger days when I used to run all the time. I’m also excited because I just talked my husband into doing a 5K with me. New shoes would be icing on the cake.

    I think I would customize a pair of Nanos – I’ve been working out in running shoes, and I want to start circuit training a lot more after the NYC marathon on Sunday, so I want lower, more stable shoes!

    I typically stay within the hot pink/black range in workout shoes, so I would definitely venture to the brighter colors if I won this giveaway!

    Hi! Your anniversary gift was super thoughtful!

    I would totally personalize the Nanos with purple, grey and black and they would say “keep going” and hopefully it would work,
    ….haha!

    Thanks!

    I would get the nano in yellow and turquoise and personalize it with the word FLASH!

    Also, I am a 53 yr old female that has trained differently for the last year. I took 30 minutes of my PR half marathon and have continued to set new PR’s for myself. Just wanted you to know I tried your circuit workout with the jump rope. Not sure what it was called exactly but began with 10 minute elliptical, one round of your circuit and then a 10 minute mile. My goal is to do 3 rounds. Wow, that was some workout for this old lady! Kudos to you for your exercise routines! Whew.

    I would LOVE to design a pair with a purple color scheme. I love all shades of purple and could easily see myself spending way too much time on the website designing a pair! I’d also love to put my name on the back (like you did) or even a short quote on the shoes (one more mile) to keep me motivated 🙂 awesome giveaway!

    Dots are severely underrated candy. I love them but have friends that hate on them.

    If I could customize reeboks I would use the coral color from your first design. I might put something on the back that says “run fast” or “just smile”.

    Oh my gosh I would love to win this give a way! My shoes are ancient things that my Mum brought for me when I was 11 and I am now 23! It is embarrassing, not to mention they totally munch up my feet and hurt. I would love to design some blue and pink nanos!

    Which pair of Reebok shoes would you customize? – I love the Nano speeds!
    What colors do you think you would incorporate into your design? turquoise and gray
    If you personalize your shoes, what would you want them to say? no idea, haha. maybe nothing!

    If you personalize your shoes, what would you want them to say?

    Its hard to choose, so much motivational sayings out there, some of my favourite are:
    1. The pain you feel today is the strength you will feel tomorrow
    2. Fear is a liar
    3. Strong is the new sexy
    4. Train like a beast, look like a beauty!

    I always think that running/workout gear is the one place where you can get away with tons of would-be clashing neon, so I’d customize the nanos in bright neon colors!

    I would do shades of red because it is my favorite color and think of it as such a happy one! I would add “Run like you love it” to the back because it is why I run–I love it. I have the same saying on my RoadID.

    Nano’s would be my shoe of choice and I’d incorporate a tad of grey with likely some bright colors. I “think” I’d have them say 3-2-1 Go. 🙂

    1. I would design a pair of the Nano speed
    2. I would love neutral colors with one pop of color. So like black,grey, white, and then a pop of blue or red
    3. I probably wouldn’t customize my shoes but if I did I would just put my name or initials
