I hope you had a wonderful weekend! This weekend we spent time spring cleaning and “redecorating”! A couple weekends ago we went to West Elm with all intentions of finding items for our wedding registry and instead we left with furniture, kitchen items & a rug! But I am in love with our new wood [Read On]
Last Sunday’s pancake making session was an absolute disaster… apparently I wasn’t used to using coconut flour, so this week I decided to try a new recipe. This one from Nourishing Days worked really well, although mine were not as fluffy as hers. I still have some learning to do. Here’s my version with a [Read On]
Today I had a failed attempt at cooking paleo pumpkin pancakes. I tried combining a couple recipes I found in some paleo cookbooks, but the outcome: a dry, crumbly, dense pile of pumpkin mess. I mean, they tasted alright, but they could definitely use some improvements. I trusted that the recipes would’ve been tested, but [Read On]
Besides trying to explain to people what the Paleo Diet is, answering the list of questions, such as “why don’t you eat quinoa when it’s good for you?” has made me realize that besides knowing the diet guidelines, understanding why you’re supposed to eat or not eat certain things is extremely important.

After reading so many books, blogs & articles, I didn’t think I’d write a post about “What is the Paleo Diet?” since I assumed it was common knowledge by now.

Ever go swimming, or skiing, or play with your kids only to be exhausted after 5 minutes? God forbid you should be in a car accident or [Read On]
Sometimes when its late and you’re hungry or you’re late in the morning and realize you forgot to go to the grocery store, you have to make do. For any regular Paleo eater, eggs are an easy go to for breakfast, lunch or dinner. But after a while, plain eggs, whether it’s fried, scrambled, poached, [Read On]
Okay, so I meant to post this last week, but between Stagecoach recovery and a bachelorette party last weekend. I don’t think I have many brain cells functioning. I’m so excited because we leave for Cabo next week for a destination wedding that I get to actually be in vs. plan & produce. It’s the [Read On]
So I’m still recovering from the weekend. The Mr. & I went to the Stagecoach Festival in Indio/Coachella Valley over the weekend. For those who don’t know what Stagecoach is, it’s a 3-day country music festival in the dessert. Yes, I’m pretty sure I was one of the 10 Asian girls there, but I love [Read On]
