You guys. I wish I had some long chat about Men Tell All from The Bachelorette last night, but I just couldn’t do it. More so my husband couldn’t do it. Since my SIL doesn’t come over to watch The Bachelor anymore because her new job is on the other side of town, my husband is often forced to watch it with me. We have a TV downstairs where I could watch it by myself, but our basement is a solid 6 degrees at all times and it also has spiders. So I just never go down there and remind my husband that I watch golf with him and NEVER complain. Football? F*ck that. But I’ll shut up and stick it out when it comes to golf. I don’t understand why. Maybe because the athletes and spectators aren’t cussing each other out every other second in golf. Or giving each other brain damage. Who knows.

Anywho, I turned on the Men Tell All after my husband agreed to it since he was working on his computer last night, and he lasted a solid 3 minutes before he started picking up his things to head to the other room. He’s the kind of guy who actually hates drama. Not the kind that says they hate drama but you know they’re entering any conversation with any rumor about any person alive while saying how much they HATE drama. He’s the opposite. If I start trying to tell him about something dramatic that has happened, I see him fading fast. Which makes me less dramatic (shame) and a better person (shame). Hence why I didn’t watch the episode last night. Men yelling at each other is public makes me feel weird. I’m here for Bachelor in Paradise and Blake.

Speaking of drama, can we please talk about my air fryer drama I had last night?! I recently snagged this NuWave air fryer because I’ve seen so many people using them lately and recommending them. This air fryer was definitely on the less expensive side, but sinceI had a handful of friends who recommended it, I decided to pull the trigger and buy it. I couldn’t wait to try it out because my friends told me how much they love to roast veggies in it and that’s something I do almost every night. So I finally pull it out of the box and try it out, making both the way a friend recommended it – 400 degrees for 15 minutes. Nope. Not cooked through WHATSOEVER. Burned on a few edges but still raw in the middle. And I cut my brussels sprouts in fourths and carrots into tiny slivers. So then once I reached out to social media to figure out what I use doing wrong, I got info like cooking them at 370 for 20-25 minutes then upping it to 400 for 5-10 minutes. But that totally defeats the purpose of buying an air fryer. I bought one to cut my cooking time in half, not add time to it. Maybe I just want my veggies different than other people do?? I don’t know but I’m hella pissed!

I’m going to try to stick it out and try it in other ways like cooking pork chops in it tonight, but I’m scared to fail at veggies again. Veggies are my favorites. Damn you air fryer, damn you to hell!!

Now on a less dramatic note, even though that’s not my style, I read an entire book this weekend! And I know that’s not a big deal to most people out there, but this b*tch right here doesn’t have much time to read. I am on my computer in the morning, in my office and kitchen in the afternoon, then back on my computer all evening. There’s really no time for books unless I want to read 3 pages before I go to bed each night. And after trying to get the The Luckiest Girl Alive for WEEKS, I finally gave up on it and bought The Woman in Cabin 10 at the airport to read on our recent trip to Cabo and I read it in 3 days! I absolutely loved it! And it made me want to read more! I asked people on IG for book recommendations and had probably the most comments EVER in one post. People really feel passionate about books, I guess. And since it will take me FOREVER to get through all the comments, here are the most recommended in the first hundred comments or so:

  • The Couple Next Door
  • Something in the Water
  • Behind Closed Doors
  • The Woman in the Window
  • The Wife Between Us
  • In a Dark, Dark Wood
  • Sharp Objects
  • Then She Was Gone

I’m thinking about getting a couple to read at night, but I also am thinking about getting Audible so I can just listen to books on tape as I work. Should I pull the trigger and start paying the $15/month to listen to 1 book? Give me your advice because I don’t trust my own.

PS – this post totally feels like the good ole’ days when I talked about random sh*t going on in my life…and I’m digging it. Let’s get back to my PaleOMG roots. Cool? Cool.

Now go try this little delicious snack!

    These look yummy. I want to try them soon.

    I wasn’t particularly interested in the couple next door. I skipped ahead. However, that may have been just because I wasn’t in the mood at the time. You might check out “a perfect stranger” by megan miranda. She has other good books too. I’m a big fan. I liked her book “all the missing girls” which was very popular for a period. “Under the harrow” is good too. I cant remember the author for that one. It has a similar feel to that of “girl on the train”.

    Oh, btw, if you get a local library card, you can download libby, sign in with your library, and listen to 1000s of audio books free through your library.

    This recipes looks interesting but Why heat the raw honey? Makes it no longer raw and according to Ayurvedic principles: can make it bitter but worse , Ayurvedic dietary principles warn that consuming honey that has been cooked, baked or added to hot liquids contributes to ill health over time. The reason is because honey that is cooked becomes like glue. The molecules then tend to adhere to mucous membranes in the digestive tract producing toxins, called ama. The literal meaning of ama is undigested food or toxins stuck within the digestive tract. It is considered to be the root cause of most ill health in Ayurveda with heated honey one of the most difficult forms to detoxify.
    Charaka, the ancient sage of Ayurveda, wrote over 500 years ago that “nothing is so troublesome as ama caused by the improper intake of honey.” (1)

    So could you use maple syrup if the mixture needs heat or use honey but not heat it?

      go for it!

    First – I love your website! Your writing just makes me smile and feel like I’m reading a friend’s blog! Secondly – I haven’t taken the plunge on air fryers yet and now I feel like you saved me some cash 🙂 Finally, I second the other poster’s rec for Educated and The Great Alone. They are books that I keep thinking about well after the final page was read.

    Thanks for being you and for sharing you and your recipes with all of us!

    Hi, quick question….where do you find lavender buds? Thanks!

    1. juli says:

      whole foods, natural grocers, really most grocery stores. it’s usually in the bulk or spices

  6. Nicole says:

    Ok, first off these look delish and I will def make for my kiddos. Second – get Audible!! I love to read but it’s so hard to find the time to sit down and read. Since I signed up for Audible, I read so much more and have more opportunities to listen to the books (on the train, grocery shopping, at the gym, while I’m cooking, etc.) – it is totally worth it!!

    1. juli says:

      hope you like the recipe, nicole!! and thanks for the push, definitely need to look into it!

  7. Elizabeth Belluscio says:

    Hi Juli,
    Love your recipes!
    Definitely, get Audible! I have been reading books with this app for years! I love it. I don’t have time to sit and read very much. I am in my car and on the road frequently, so I ‘read with Audible! I highly recommend it!

  8. PJ says:

    Just FYI – Libby and Overdrive are the same company. Overdrive is the company but their new app Libby is much easier to use (the Overdrive app is getting old and hard to update so they came out with Libby recently). The Denver library has a great selection but I have cards from a couple metro library systems to increase my options;-)

  9. Alex McCoy says:

    Audible is definitely worth it compared to the price of actual audio books. My husband has a subscription and looooves it but after all of the comments about Kindle unlimited we may have to check that out.

    P.S. A big YES to the old school PaleOMG chats. I loved them!

  10. Kim says:

    Do you need to use honey if you are using sweetened yogurt??

    1. juli says:

      no
