Oooh Veggies!
And guess who is making a concerted effort to gulp down loads of water to avoid in-flight dehydration tomorrow?
GULP!
(I promise to wash my hair tomorrow. Honest.)
Along with my salad and tons o’ water, I also snagged one of these little babies from a neighboring office when nobody was looking.
Pulling the Chocolate Chip Slip
Yes, sometimes I take things.
PBF: While I’m Away
Guys, I am starting to freak out! I cannot believe I’m going to Europe tomorrow!!!
Some of you have asked me what the game plan is for the blog while I’m away. Please allow me to fill you in!
I will be traveling tomorrow through May 15 and I have a guest post from a blogger I adore scheduled to post on PBF each day while I’m gone. The guest bloggers I selected come from several different blogging niches including healthy living (duh), fashion (weee!), book bloggers (let’s get smart!) and more. I think you’re gonna love ’em.
I also scheduled a couple of posts to appear while I’m gone (hooray for the peanut butter energy bite recipe!) and hope to pop in and blog once a day if possible. Of course my number one priority is seeing and doing every single thing I can while I’m in Europe and spending quality time with my family, so blogging will be taking a back seat.
That being said, I do hope to blog while I’m there because blogging is something I love and I can’t imagine staying away for too long! Plus I want to share our adventures with you guys and document everything so I may look back on it in the future and drool over all of the gelato and croissants I will be eating. (There will be a lot of those, I assure you.)
So that’s the deal! 😀
In 2.5 short hours I’ll be on the road to my parents’ house in St. Pete and vacation will officially begin! WOO!
P.S. The Fashion page was updated this afternoon.

Wheee, have FUN!!!!!
Can I request a Ryan post?? I can’t help it – they are hilarious.
Enjoy your vacation woman!!!
Have so much fun! I can’t wait to see the Europe blog posts when you get back! What are you bringing for in-flight entertainment?
The Help! I can’t wait to start reading it!
It’s SO good. I suggest reading Saving CeeCee Honeycutt after 🙂
Have a great, safe trip first of all. I’m SO excited for the guest bloggers because I have a feeling you’re going to introduce me to some new favs. You’re going tomhave the best time, so enjoy every moment. I lived in Italy for 5 weeks and spent a 2 week vaca there previously and I still want to return multiple times. Be careful of your bag especially in Rome you’ll get used to jus holding it as close to you as possibe and always keep your eye on the zipper. Never take money out of am ATM without covering the keypad where you type your pin, if possible always use ATMs inside the bank.
So excited for you! Have a total blast!!
you know we grow veggies over here in the UK too, right?! 😛 London is looking awesome at the mo, hope they keep up all of the union jack flags up from the wedding by the time you’re here, even I had a little ‘I love London’ moment when I stepped off the tube this morning! Have an amazing time 🙂
lol, i hope so! no one ever mentions the veggies!!
I promise! I thought the same thing about America hehe! If you get hungry while shopping on Oxford St let me know, I work there so I’ve sourced out all the super healthy options available 🙂
I am SOOO jealous! I’m sure you will have the best time ever… you deserve it :)!
SO excited for YOU!!!! Love the idea of stuffing veggies in before heading out 🙂
How exciting! Good luck and have a blasty!
I’m excited for you! Have an awesome trip!!

Have fun! Safe travels and enjoy all the wonderful fruits and veggies over there – stalls and stands of them – even fresh coconut on the streets, etc. Better than here!

I’m so excited for you!! Can’t wait to hear all about your travels when you return 🙂 Be safe!
So excited for your trip!! I traveled throughout Europe last year and fell in love with it 🙂
Can’t wait for your recaps! Praying for your safe travels.
I hope you enjoy your vacation! I guess I’ll have to read back a little ways to find out the story on this vacation 😉
Thanks for setting up some guest bloggers to appear on your blog while you’re on vacay! I love how it can bring new readers to other blogs that someone might not come across on their own.
Have a great time on your trip, enjoy every second of it! Write down your favorite places and foods so you can remember all the great experiences. It will start to blend together.
Hope you and your family have a safe and wonderful trip. Can’t wait to read about it when you return.
Have an awesome trip! Enjoy all the gelato and croissants!! 🙂
Have a wonderful trip!!!!!
WOOO I can’t wait to read all about it!! Especially the croissants. And food in general. Have a safe trip to St. Pete!!
Have an AMAZING time!! I know you will!!!!
I can’t wait till my trip to Paris this fall! 🙂
This sounds like an experience of a lifetime! live it up! 🙂 have fun! can’t wait to hear all about it!
Thanks for the post 🙂
This is all so exciting! =) I can’t wait to see the food!!
Haha I love the cookie-snagging antics! You’re going to have soooo much fun in Europe!
Otis Spunkmeyer cookies are amazing! I haven’t had one since high school, but geez. You have me wanting to hunt one down!
Have the best best best time with your fam on vacation! XO
have a great trip!!!
Julie enjoy every moment! Italy is my most favorite place in the world, especially Venice! Make sure to gobble up some gelato at GROM for me 🙂
JOURNAL EVERYTHING! Not necessarily about the sites that you can read about in any book, but your thoughts when you see things, the way you feel, the things you smell…everything! Funny things you heard, appalling things you heard, fun laughs you have with your family, insides jokes you create, etc. Even if you are feeling annoyed or gross, write it down because it is amazing how much you forget, and it is so much fun to go back and read it years later!
Also, I can’t speak for every country, but the fruit and veggies in Europe are so amazing, and the flavor is to die for! I went to the local grocery stores on a daily basis when visiting. It is cheaper and it is also fun to compare their products to the US’s.
Have fun!!
Have a great time, Julie! I am sure that you will fill us in afterward, and I can’t wait to hear about it! Enjoy!
Have a wonderful time with your family! I’ve never been overseas before; how exciting! Have a safe trip, Julie! Can’t wait to hear all about your adventures!
have a great trip!!! i’m sure it will be filled with adventures and fun memories… i used skype when i studied abroad with my fam and loved it!!
That salad looks so yummy!! and good luck on your trip 🙂 Have FUN and be safe!
Will surely miss your posts but looking fwd to reading those of other bloggers :)!
Have an amazing time! And I can’t wait for that recipe 😉
