So I had the opportunity to try out a new clarified butter product called PALEO BUTTER, and oh boy was I impressed. As you guys know by now, I only post about products that I really believe in, and this is one of those products. This stuff tastes like the best butter you''ll ever try (the [...]
A special delivery came yesterday, which provided a much needed mood-boost. Chocolate (especially Love Bean Fudge) and a good book can heal most problems, after all... So now I finally get to crack into Liz Wolfe's book Eat the Yolks. It's as awesome as I knew it would be. A fellow English major, the girl can write, and [...]
(Note: If you want to get straight to the fudge, scroll all the way down) Now, I spent the majority of this past weekend at The CrossFit Games Northern California Regionals cheering on some of my best friends who competed both on teams and as individuals. I'll tell you what, if you ever want to [...]
I have a little extra time to cook, bake, and experiment in the kitchen right now since I can't train because of my neck.... This creates a bit of a conundrum, though, because eating baked goods all day when I'm not working out at all... Well, it goes without saying that that just won't do. [...]

During germination, it is the gluten that provides nourishment for the plant. It also creates the chewy [...]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUpY1BT9Xf4 I hope you enjoyed that... I sure did. Now on to the coffee coffee coffee coffee.... (but I swear I won't get snobby) I love coffee (in moderation, sometimes), but I haven't always. I went until 25 years of age without ever enjoying a single cup. Then, one day, with the help and encouragement [...]
