Well these stories are absolutely fantastic. If my dog could write, these are some of the things he would be saying.
Jackson, my puppy, humped another dog yesterday. You know how I said he’s becoming a teenager…it’s official now. So upsetting. Please stay a puppy forever and don’t act on pheromones. Or hormones. Or whatever the hell puppies have that make them hump before they even are potty trained. Oh the agony.
So I posted a video of Jackson getting himself stuck under the couch yesterday. He’s really into doing that lately. He can shove himself underneath it, but then gets a bit confused how to get out. At least that’s what I take his barking as. To me his saying “WTF MOM. WHERE THE HELL AM I? WHAT THE HELL KEEPS TOUCHING MY HEAD?? WHY THE HELL CAN’T I TURN OVER?? WHAT’S GOING ON?????” That’s how I interpret him. Once I posted the video, I think some people took it as puppy abuse. Not sure why. I didn’t shove him under the couch and say HAHA jokes on your mother effer! No, you psychos. I have a soul, thank you very much. People who don’t like puppies have no soul. That’s just a straight up fact.
My hair is greasy. Gross.
When you’re shopping online, do you ever put a bunch of stuff in the shopping bag then just come back a couple days later to see if you still want it? I do. I do that with pretty much everything I buy. I’m an impulse shopper. So if I leave it alone for a few days and want it when I come back, I know that I truly want it. I think. At least that’s how it feels.
Speaking of shopping, I’m so so excited to go to Austin next week for Paleofx. It’s supposed to be in the 80s. I mean, I’m making that up because that’s what it’s suppose to be in my mind. I plan on wearing mostly dresses. Because I bought about 10 of them through the winter just day dreaming about the summer. I need to get my money’s worth. Ok, that’s my story. Bye.
Chocolate Chai Protein Shakes
- Yield: 2 1x
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond milk
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 scoop of Chocolate Primal Fuel*
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 chai tea packet (the seasonings inside)
- 1 cup ice cubes
- sprinkle of cacao nibs
Instructions
- Place almond milk, pumpkin puree, cocoa powder, protein powder, vanilla extract, the seasoning that are in the chai tea packet (cut the packet open and pour the seasonings out), and ice into a blender and puree until thick and smooth. I used a Blendtec twister jar and used the smoothie button to puree until perfect.
- Divide into two glasses and top with cacao nibs.
Notes
*If you decide not to use protein powder, be sure to add some sort of sweetener, about 2-3 tablespoons of either maple syrup, honey, or even coconut sugar.

I love me some chai:

My Great Dane loved crawling under our furniture when he was little.. It only lasted about two weeks at the rate he grew.. but it was sad to watch when he tried and could no longer fit.
First – Puppy stories like that are epic.
Non puppy people just don’t understand.
Anywho – I’ll be in Austin next week for the MotoGP races. So be prepared, by the weekend, the entire city will be filled with motorcycles and extremely good looking European racers.
Win.
No worries! Humping is about dominance and puppy pecking order, not jsut cause they want to get some. Totally normal in limited quantities (even the girls get into it) as long as he isn’t going to town on someone’s leg 😉
Puppies are adorable and I feel like once got one, I took more pictures in the first month than in the rest of my life totaled.
Also, if you add things to your cart and then leave the website, more often than not if you have an account with them they will email you with a coupon in a few days. pays to wait!
I absolutely will leave everything in my online cart & go back after a couple of days. It keeps me from buying what I think are cute shoes, and turn out to look ugly a few days later.
I’m totally making this after I get some cacao nibs, although I’m pretty sure I’ll end up using some enjoy life chips until then.
Puppies are hilarious. People who don’t laugh at the adorable antics of puppies have no soul.
My dogs still get stuck under beds and they’re not exactly puppies.
It’s nice and warm here in Austin! But even if it’s not you can still wear dresses because we’re all weird here so you’d just fit in.
I’ll be at paleofx too, but I only have the expo pass so I won’t get to see your talk which is a big bummer. Maybe I’ll see you on the expo floor though! You should sneak Jackson in…
totally agree we all need to see a puppy picture! =) preferably not in the midst of humping tho!! Love this recipe… I can definitely do pumpkin year round!
more puppy pictures!! instagram is not enough. SO CUTE
I do that all the time with online shopping and actually bit the bullet and purchased 3 dresses for summer on Piperlime. It’ll be warm in Austin…the weather has been freaking gorgeous in Houston, so take those dresses and rock them. 🙂
Living overseas, I pretty much shop online all the time and I do exactly the same thing. You know what’s terrible about that though, or at least what happens to me all the time? I’ll add stuff to the online basket and two days later it will no longer be available. I guess it’s actually a good thing since fate pretty much decides for me on whether I should buy the item. LOL! Anyway, thanks for sharing this recipe. I’ve been researching protein powders recently (new to the idea), so I’ll be sure to check out FormulX and this shake.

Lol I always call it fate too if it’s gone
