Look what I got!
A 2009 Chevy Traverse and for the next 4 weeks its mine, mine, mine. 
I look good with silver, don’t you think? 
Last Friday I had mentioned I was selected as one of Central Florida’s Chevy Girls on the Go and as such Chevy is providing me with the Traverse to drive for the next 4 weeks. They will also be covering all my gas expenses as well as a few other surprises along the way.
Starting Monday I will begin blogging about my experiences with the Traverse on the Orlando Girlfriend Getaway website. I will be sure to post a link to those posts on my blog so you can follow me on my Chevy adventures.
I’ve only had the car an hour and I am already having fun with it!
MANY THANKS to Ryan and Caitlin for picking me up from work and taking me to WESH to pick the car up this morning. These ladies ROCK!
I was actually pretty excited we were picking our cars up from WESH. I am a morning news junkie and watch channel 2 news every morning before the Today Show comes on.
Some of the morning news anchors were actually still in the news area as we were passing by. I felt like a huge nerd as I was exclaiming “OMG is that Amy Sweezy?!?”
We sat through a presentation and signed some paperwork. Then a product specialist from Cecil Clark Chevrolet was kind enough to give me a quick breakdown of the car.
I think I’ve got all the nifty features down now. Can’t wait to use them all!
Picking up the car was a longer process then I had originally intended. By the time I got back to the office I was starving and more than ready to break into my lunch.
The key to brining lunch to work is LOTS of tupperware containers.
I heated up the last of my lavahs bread in the office toaster.
And had a sampling of dips to enjoy the bread with as my meal.
Tabouli
Hummus
Zucchini and Squash.
All enjoyed while working away at my desk.
I can’t believe the day is already halfway over and I have so much to do! Better start crackin!

you keep saying “lavahs bread” and i’m wondering if you mean lavash bread? or is there some other type of bread that i’m not aware of….?
Its actually lavah without the ‘s’. That’s a typo on my part. Sorry!

I love all the tupperware, I have the same kind and honestly thought I was the only person who brings a bunch for lunch at work…glad to know i’m not alone.
How cool! I’ve never owned a Chevy in my life – curious what your thoughts will be!

Hi Meghann!
Sorry for such a random question..but I know you’ve said before how many calories you usually eat a day but I wanted to know if you could estimate the breakdown per meal? Like breakfast/lunch/snack/dinner? Just a random estimate…I know everyone is different but I just wanted to know if you eat more calories in the morning like i do etc. Thanks so much!!!!
you win some pretty awesome things!
have soooo much fun sporting around in your new car for the next few
weeks. how lovely.
So very cool!! Have fun with it girl!
P.S. LOVE your outfit!
Lunch looks great….you take almost as many dishes to work as I do..but I am totally anti plastic so all my dishes are pyrex glass..get really heavy
Fancy ride! Have tons of blog-girl fun while it lasts! Road trippin’!
so totally jealous of the car! have fun!
Tupperware is a healthy eater’s best friend.

I still can’t believe you won that car! I can’t wait to hear about all of your adventures in it
I hear you on the bringing tupperware to work! I bring so much because I not only tote my lunch but my breakfast too so I can get up last minute in the morning. I end up doing so many dishes….
Enjoy your new ride. You look awfully cute in it!
you dress so well!!!
have fun with your car!
I bring a TON of tupperware to work, too. People always comment on my huge lunch bag, but really – it’s all plastic!
Love the car – you’re going to have so much fun!
And I love your white shirt – it’s very pretty!
