I miss my dog. Like, bad. Working in Pittsburgh is probably one of the best experiences I’ve ever been through, but being away from my little man is tough. Mostly because I miss his cuddles. Having a cuddly dog is the absolute best. Having a man to cuddle is pretty fantastic but a dog, now that’s just the best. When I get back, I am going to try to spend the entire day just snuggling. And eating gluten free pizza. Yeah, for sure.
Sooooo how is everyone feeling about this whole ebola thing? I feel like my brain wouldn’t be thinking about is as much if it weren’t for Facebook. Facebook is the worst. Like for real, the worst. Back to my point, are you freaking out? I don’t freak out about those kind of things, I usually freak out about a deadline or not drinking enough water. But a virus that I cannot control? Come on now. I have quite a few flights to take in the next few months, ain’t nobody got time for that kind of stress. I still sometimes want to wear a mask while flying though, but that’s mostly because people on flights are disgusting, not because they have ebola. Just my thoughts about ebola. Thank you for letting me voice them. The media is really intense right now.
Speaking of intense, I’ve been making 5 recipes per day lately. That sh*t is intense. Not like a horror house where you have to sign a waiver for them to pour fake blood on you and stuff weird things in your mouth while your head is locked in a chamber kind of intense because that would just be the worst thing ever, but intense enough that I can call it intense. Did you get just as lost as I did there? Let me explain shortly. There are for real haunted houses that you have to sign a waiver to be in the house for 4-7 hours and they can do whatever they want to you. That’s f*cked up. That is one thing I absolutely never want to experience. The last time I went to a haunted house, probably when I was 16, I peed myself. Straight up. Fear is not my thing. But food on the other hand, I’m into that sort of thing. Wanna hear some of the things I’ve made? Okgood. Fish tacos, short rib tostadas, lamb chops, maple bacon pork loin, shamrock shake, moo shu pork, and little baby pancakes. I’m seriously so excited about this project that cooking 5 meals a day has actually been really enjoyable. It’s pretty rad. I can’t wait to be able to tell you about the project! Someday sooooooon.
I’ve decided that I want to get my makeup professionally done every single day. Fact is, I look way better with makeup. I wish I was one of those people that looked at least decent without makeup on, but that’s just not the case. Even without acne taking over my face, I still look like a hot mess. My Fashion Friday this week is going to be way more fun because I have 4 feet of eyelashes on. I see why everyone is getting eyelash extensions right now, which in turn make your eyelashes fall out and make your life sad, but are totally worth it for the few months! I want them but I like my real eye lashes so 4 feet of fake ones will have to do. Gosh I love me some Fashion Fridays, even if someone called me hideous in an outfit, YOU CAN’T TAKE AWAY MY LOVE FOR IT. I feel like that’s in a Selena song for sure. Maybe in Spanish. But either way, she sang it. I just know it. I don’t even know what just happened in my last sentence. I got sh*t to cook, braaaaah. Back off!

Ugh, I hate leaving my dog! I hate leaving my husband, too, but at least he knows where I’m going and when I’ll be back. The dog just has no idea.
However, welcome home snuggles from a thoroughly surprised dog are the absolute best! 🙂
oh heck yes! I think you just saved me from needing dessert, because I would rather have this. And, that goes for the hubs too. Okay, I was laughing out loud several times on this one. You help me feel free to let my blogging voice shine. THANK YOU. I need it. You make the world a better place, my friend. AWww. lol. Happy weekend.
I went to make this today then realized I had completely forgotten to buy apple cider. It turned out not to be an issue because it still ended up being delicious!
Love the flavours! I tend to freak out about things actually happening in my life too, and what with making 5 recipes a day I can’t see how you would even have the time to worry about Ebola too! Also, your photography in this post is amazing!
Hey… Can you still save recipes to your recipe box?
I dont see the save button anymore.
i’ve had some issues with tech stuff and haven’t been able to fix that yet, hopefully i will be able to soon!
This smoothie was fabulous! I substituted King Arthur Boiled Cider for the maple syrup, and it really took the apple flavor over the top. Thanks!
This smoothie looks amazing! I can’t wait to try it.
Ebola doesn’t scare me one bit. It’s a tropical disease and less than 1% of the population over in West Africa has contracted it and mostly it is because people are taking care of their relatives who have it in their own homes without proper protocol. If anything, just make sure you wash your hands more and you’ll be fine. Oh, and cover any open wounds you have so that if you touch a public space, you won’t get anyone else’s germs inside you but that’s pretty much common sense anyways. Ebola is NOT airborne and it would be extremely unexpected and almost impossible for it to mutate that way. If it did mutate to airborne, the fatality of it would dramatically decrease. Between the media and facebook, I can see why you’re worried though. Those things love, love, love to spread fear which is why I try to stay away from them.
Just cuddle with your boys when you get back home and all worries will melt away 😉
Forgot to put this in my last comment….
I just read on homesteadsurvival dot com that adding 1 drop of lavender or tea tree essential oil to your mascara can help you grow thicker, longer eyelashes. This is because there are mites in the roots of our eyelashes and the essential oils kill them allowing your lashes to grow better. Crazy stuff! A lot of people say it works for them. This is my first week trying it and it’s supposed to take a few weeks to notice a difference.
This goes without saying (hopefully…), but anyone reading this comment and trying this out should never put essential oils into your eye directly.
Dude, your posts crack me up. Finally, theres someone on this earth who talks as crazily as I do. Hells to the yeah, betch. Keep ’em comin!
Hi! Thank you for this site. I am new to Paleo and very excited about it. Question, I thought fruit was a no no on this way of eating? Also, I do eyelash extensions and if you are ever in my neighborhood, North Idaho, come see me. Your lashes will not fall out when done correctly 🙂
no, that’s not the case at all. if your goal is weight loss, the less sugar- the better. that includes fruit. fruit is high in sugar, which spikes your insulin which can lead to weight gain. however, it is fine to have fruit on paleo in moderation just like any other sweet
