THIS IS IMPORTANT: This is my anecdotal recollection of my own unique experience, partly because I think it's important to share my experience about a topic that many mamas think about, and partly because it feels good to me to write down my thoughts so that I can look back at them in the future [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Sorry for the lack of posts recently. I am having some struggles with REALLY bad back, neck, and head pain. The good news is that I still had a blast working the CrossFit Level 1 Seminar this past weekend in San Jose. The participants were just so awesome, and as always, I got to work [...]

I made some delicious Rocket Fuel Mochachino, and [...]

Let's be real, bright teal nail polish just doesn't fly in the dead of winter (even a California winter where nothing [...]
So, I have talked a bit about the multiple back injuries that I have dealt with over the past year and half, but I haven't gone too much into the details. Here's the post where I dive in... stick with me though, there is a happy ending! Through all of this pain, frustration, and impatience, [...]
Today's post comes to you from the Bruner kitchen. I am actually shocked that I haven't really mentioned my Vitamix yet considering it's my 4th love (just behind Rusty and our two pups). This thing can be used to make pretty much any dish. It's fast, it cleans itself, and no kitchen should be without [...]
I talk a lot about eating clean, balancing macronutrients and making this a lifestyle. But what I haven’t talked much about yet is how to make this all realistic and sustainable over a lifetime. Because after all, is something really a lifestyle if it can’t be sustained for a lifetime? So here are my thoughts [...]
