This is how/why I can believe in evolution as a Catholic Christian. . . I’m constantly evolving and I’m convinced we aren’t the same humans as Adam & Eve. Life happens. Society happens. Ideas arise and fall. Life evolves. Right now, I’m going backward again. For a while I was pretty strict purist Paleo- no […]
After my Debbie-Downer post earlier, I figure I owe it to the blogosphere to write something a bit more helpful. 🙂 I just spent a whole lotta moo-la at the grokery store(s). Ugh. . . Anyway, the plan is to have a plan. I wrote out our menu for the week, purchased the goods to […]
Pregnant bellies are finicky. After reading about early pregnancy food aversions all over the internet, I know I am not alone in this. Upon waking this morning, I had a banana. I was hoping it would quell the queasies and maybe I’d be able to get those eggs in. . . no such luck. Around […]
Daddy Grok is down 9lbs. Are you kidding me? That said, with our growing family. . . Mama Grok shouldn’t lose weight. Moving on. Breakfast today was scrambled eggs. The kids added fruit. I had to run out the door for labwork, so I skipped my veggies but grabbed a banana for a blood sugar […]
Today we’ve completed day 4 of the 21 Day Sugar Detox. We both weighed in this morning. . . Daddy Grok has lost SEVEN pounds. That’s ridiculous! Mama Grok has lost one pound. Huh. . . Daddy Grok is feeling good. . . no headaches, grogginess, or lethargy. Mama has felt good from the get […]
I remember seeing 50/50 Bacon Burgers in my Eat Like a Dinosaur Cookbook. . . that memory sparked tonight’s dinner. I didn’t look at the recipe in the book, but I can’t imagine mine is that different. I used 1/2 package (about 1 lb) Beelers uncured bacon ends & pieces ($6.99 for 2lbs) + 1 […]
We are hanging in there. Daddy Grok is itching for a soda or candy bar something fierce, but he’s staying strong. Mama is rolling with it. . . she received some exciting news today (not sharing yet, thank you), so that’s distracting me from the detox. Breakfast today- 2 eggs over medium (cooked whites, runny […]
Don’t expect pictures of everything I make. . . I do like to take pictures, but the amount of free time I have is almost non-existent, especially with being back to work tomorrow (or should I say, with work being back to me since I run a childcare out of my home). We are doing […]
