This week marked the first week of school here in Texas and although my boys have been going to a little Montessori school all summer, there is something different about the pressures of attending a “real” school. I can’t believe my oldest son, Jackson, is in Kindergarten. Here are a few pictures of my BIG […]
Ok so I will warn you right off the bat, this recipe isn’t glamorous. Sometimes I see these delicious (and glamorous) Paleo (or not even Paleo) recipes on blogs, food magazines and cookbooks and I stare and awww and even drool over them, but then I think to myself, who has time to make that? Or I see […]
I am writing this blog post on our Babymoon. Ben and I went to Puerto Rico for a quick long weekend sans kids for the 4th of July to not only spend time alone but also to visit some of my family. Can I tell you how ecstatic I currently am? Can I tell you […]
“Enjoy the little things in life, for some day you will realize they are the big things.” I don’t want to get all philosophical on you all but lately I am feeling more overwhelmed than usual and this quote just stopped me in my tracks. I already have too much $h!t going on a daily […]
So am I the only one who did not know what Migas were until she moved to Texas???? Come to think of it, there was a lot of things that this Jersey girl had to quickly get spun up on that I didn’t know until I moved to the amazing Republic State of Texas. 1. […]
So I think it is Un-Godly and your blog will be cursed if you do not publish some type of green colored recipe in honor of St. Patrick’s Day. I am away from my family on a business trip this week and I am travelling to…drum roll please…..Oahu, Hawaii. I know, I know, there are […]
So what do you do when you have too much leftover pork? You don’t throw it away silly!! Don’t you know there are starving, homeless people?!?!? And how about those crazy Paleo, CrossFit cultish people?!?! They would deadlift you if they found out you threw away a perfectly good source of protein. Well all jokes […]
Ok many people ask me what I eat for breakfast now that I am Paleo. This is the girl who used to live on heavily processed and laden grain meals like cereal and oatmeal. Of course there are times where I miss my morning ritual of oatmeal (but don’t feel too bad for me because […]
So you all know I live in Texas now but I was a born and raised (AND PROUD) Jersey girl! I grew up in the east coast where there are four seasons and now that I have lived in Texas for the last 8+ years, I am a traitor. It is ok, I can say […]
Ok everyone, hold the phone….I made another Cuban inspired crock pot meal. The way I see it is, life is too short to just have one pork shoulder/ pork butt slow cooker meal in your repertoire. Two nights ago I made this pork meal and it was too good to hold out on you guys […]
