I love going out for breakfast. Paleo Eggs Benny, omelettes, breakfast dates with my favorite people, or rehashing adventures from the night before. I used to date a cute boy from the gym. Our dates were always breakfast dates. It sets the tone for an entire day of awesome. Orange juice, an Eggs Benny, some shameless flirting; too bad he moved away and I lost my breakfast date buddy. Maybe I should work on finding another one, any offers? Tell the world, I want grain free English muffins ... Read More about Paleo Eggs Benny
Apple Fennel Salad
Apple Fennel Salad Today I'm going to tell you about my roommates dogs. I live in a house with a friend, her 14 year old son, 2 wiener dogs, and 2 cats (they are kittens still) plus her dad has a suite in the basement of the house. There is always someone coming or going. After living alone for a couple years I was ready for a change, I looked thru the want ads for roomies even went on a couple "girl dates" with one perspective house mate, but wasn't finding the right fit. Living alone, ... Read More about Apple Fennel Salad
Paleo Whipped Cream
Paleo Whipped Cream, or Whipped Coconut Cream, is a must-have. Why not try jazzing it up with one of these 2 bonus flavors.... I've got bad news. I don't have an interesting story today. I don't wanna talk about my car problems and how I got a refresher in how-to-jump-start-a-car-battery (no, I didn't do anything silly like leaving the lights on - just some electrical problems that appeared at midnight on a weekend...). I don't want to talk about the TV series that I'm hooked on right now ... Read More about Paleo Whipped Cream
Lilac Iced Tea
Paleo Lilac Iced Tea is such a fresh, beautifully fragrant beverage. It's like Spring-time in a cup! I love lilacs! The smell is amazing and I love the color of the purple ones. That smell really lets you know that Spring is here. When I was going to university for pharmacy I would leave 5-10 minutes early each morning so that I could stop at neighbors' lilac bushes and breathe in that sweet fresh scent. Someday, when I buy my dream home, there will be lilac bushes outside my bedroom ... Read More about Lilac Iced Tea
Blackberry Mint Smoothie
I'm thirty. Thirsty for this Paleo Blackberry Mint Smoothie (or use basil in place of mint). Mother's Day is this Sunday. Don't forget to call, visit, and hug everyone you need to. And remind the people who you know could use a reminder. Sometimes it's tough to come up with a good Mother's Day gift, you know? I think most moms would prefer a heartfelt gesture rather than a gift, am I right? This year Mom, I would have made you a nice Paleo brunch- if you weren't so far away. Think Dad'll ...

Stuffed Turkey Breast
This Stuffed Turkey Breast is a fave go-to meal for me. There are endless substitutions and variations. I was sitting in my office today chatting with a girlfriend. She is prepping/training for a fitness competition. I have a couple friends doing these. Wow ladies: I admit I admire your perseverance and dedication. I know you don't know what you are capable of until you are in it, but when you tell me about things like carb cycling (super low carb diet, then high, zig-zagging back and forth), ...

Paleo Mushroom Risotto
Paleo Mushroom Risotto? That's a thing? Sure. There's a picture right there to prove it. I need a personal assistant while I’m in the shower. I know, you’re thinking something sexual, or that I want someone to wash my back between my shoulder blades, or maybe you think I like to sing in the shower and would just really appreciate a partner for doing duets. All those sound great (and I’d probably get them to rub lotion on that spot between my shoulder blades that I can’t get at), but the ... Read More about Paleo Mushroom Risotto
Lemon Meringue Pie
You guys like pie? Of course you do, that was rhetorical. Luckily today is the day for a paleo Lemon Meringue Pie! I am drinking tea at a coffee shop right now, doing work for my "real" job and eavesdropping. There is a table of 5 beside me. They look to be in their late 50's early 60's. They are wildly entertaining. I want to stop what I'm doing and just absorb myself in this spectacle. I have to stifle my laughter when they say something funny and pretend like I'm obviously working away over ... Read More about Lemon Meringue Pie
Mango Tequila BBQ Sauce
It's BBQ season, and you need a Paleo-friendly BBQ sauce. Enjoy the Mango Tequila BBQ Sauce on any meats or BBQ'd foods. For about a year and a half now I’ve been looking forward to upgrading my phone to a Samsung Galaxy. Despite a few problems, I like my phone, but its technology is outdated and slow. I almost paid out my contract last year, but I had heard rumors about a waterproof version coming out, which is the case with the Galaxy S5 that came out 3 weeks ago. I told myself I’d wait 4 ...

How to Cut a Mango
If you’ve never cut a mango, why would you know how to, right? How would you know that there is a large pit in the middle, or what its shape is? That’s why I thought I’d give you some help. I remember the first time I was shown. Thanks T! The mango seed is long and flat. Now then, this is how to cut a mango: To start, hold the mango on a cutting board, stem down. You want to cut just next to the widest part of the mango, maybe ¼ inch off-center. Do the same on the other side of the ... Read More about How to Cut a Mango
