Sunshine sauce is out of this world. I have it in pad thai with spaghetti squash.
Is it weird that I love it when grocery lists / the grocery carts of others at the store are filled with whole, real foods?? (Or at least mostly so, with a few treats here and there … haha. We all have our little indulgences.) It just makes me so happy to know that they’re treating their bodies well.
Ps. I love that broccoli is on there twice. Mainly because (1) I love broccoli and (2) I’m apt to make repetitions on my grocery lists too. Broccoli is important — tonnes of calcium. Can’t forget it!
We went to a wedding last night in which the bride and groom jumped in the pool! Crazy!
Fun!
I am confused. I thought you weren’t actually going Paleo.
I’m doing a Paleo challenge at my box for the next 61 days!
I went to a big family party and had a blast! I also bought some white truffle oil – I’ve seen you mention truffle oil on your blog. I was surprised at the strong taste. I know you put it on salads. Do you also cook with it?
Sometimes. I more often use it cold on salads.
Also – how do people get their pictures to show up when they comment? Thanks!
Seattle this weekend? Sounds like a blast! Have a great week Tina!
Sounds like a great week!! You made me remember that I must make butternut squash mash! Yummy!!
I went wedding dress shopping and found the dress !! It gave me chills
Yay!!!!!! That is the best feeling! What does it look like?
Whatcha gonna be doin in Seattle? Let me know if ya need any pug snuggles! Callie is the sweetest pug! How was Murphys photo shoot?
Mal’s sister’s wedding!
What is the Paleo Challenge?
~Heather
It has multiple parts. I’ll blog about it tomorrow!
@Tina: Thank you!
I’m doing my own 2 week paleo challenge starting tomorrow too! I also spent my day meal planning, shopping, and food prepping. I whipped up a butternut squash and bison chili to kick it off! Delish.
I know you’ve said you’re not following a Paleo diet but it might confuse come of your readers – or send them mixed messages if you’re doing the Paleo Challenge now. I guess it doesn’t really matter since you have every right to eat whatever you want
… but just saying that it does seem somewhat confusing.
Anyway – have fun with it!
Those meals all sound so good – especially that hash. Anything with sweet potato and sausage is bound to be delicious!
This weekend I celebrated Homecoming! We lost though.
My husband and I had the sweet potato/spinach/sausage skillet for dinner just the other day and we both loved it! I hope you enjoy if you haven’t already tried it.
Yum, looking forward to some yummy paleo recipes this week! This weekend I got to do yoga outside, such a neat experience. And then tons of “stuff” around the ol’ homestead. Happy Monday!
