Oh my lawd, it’s already Wednesday. My life has been taken over with appointments and late night baseball games. No, I will not tell you which team I am cheering for. Mostly because I don’t cheer for teams, but also because sports teams make people say rude things. Like “I thought you were a great person until I found out you were a _______ fan.” Like, what? That’s probably one of the dumbest things you can say. Same reason I don’t talk about religion or politics on my website. You want someone to get real d*ck head opinionated on ya, talk about sports, Obama or the God you pray to. Not touching it. No way, no how. I have better things to talk about. Like puppies. And new restaurants.
Speaking of new restaurants, I’m trying out a few this week. You see, sometimes you get in a rut when it comes to creating recipes. Ok, wait, sometimes I get in a rut. I see other food bloggers who never run out of ideas and I just don’t get it. Because I get in random ruts all the time. And since I came up with around 66 recipes for my latest project in a little over two weeks, I need to find some inspiration. That’s where restaurants come into play. Denver is FULL with awesome restaurants. They are everywhere. Including Boulder. So I’m heading to Boulder today to try out a new paleo restaurant then trying another restaurant tomorrow in the Baker neighborhood. I’m guessing I’ll also be purchasing food somewhere on Halloween. I know that’s a lot of money to spend on food in a week, but I need ideas people. I need some help with flavor combinations or a meat that I haven’t tried cooking myself. Wish me luck.
I wish it could stay fall forever here in CO. Since I leave this weekend for Pittsburgh, I’m going to miss another week and a half here in CO. I just know that when I get back, there will probably be snow on the ground. Oh the sadness. I’m ok with snow, especially since we still live in an apartment so we don’t have to shovel, but I’m not really into the whole cold thing. That’s why I buy myself a new winter coat every year. It’s my way of developing a positive reinforcement about living in a snowy state. I don’t think reinforcement is the right word, but you get what I’m going for. A new coat or jacket makes winter worth it. And boots. Obviously. If you saw my instagram post about rearranging my closet, you know I have a brown boot obsession.
Ok, I can’t talk anymore, I have restaurants to eat at, baseball games to watch (meaning look at instagram 96% of the time), and political commercials to despise. Is it election day yet so those d*ck head commercials can end?? I swear, those commercials teach children to talk sh*t about each other. Crap, I started talking about politics, I gotta knock that sh*t off. Kbye!

This looks delicious!
Made this last night for breakfast today and I seriously could’ve eaten the entire pan in one sitting. Such a delicious dish, and the best part is that it was so easy to make. Thanks for coming up with all of these incredible meals! Good luck with the Tour de Denver Restaurants!
I love having a blogger/restaurant reviewer in my area! Can’t wait to hear about your yummy finds in Denver/Boulder! Is there really a Paleo restaurant in Boulder??
yes! blooming beets! and it was out of this world. seriously so freaking good!
Delicious…You can never go wrong with a breakfast casserole…especially ones that involve salty meats! 😉
What brand of breakfast sausage do you use?
ok so i’m not at all totally paleo but I do LOVE the recipes you post on here but I have a question…why do regular potatoes (russet, golden, etc) get such a bad rap? We love potatoes at my house and it isn’t like we add all the extra bad crap to them either, a little salt a little pepper dice them up and cook them in a little fat of your choice, deeeelish! But for some reason everyone thinks that regular/white potatoes are of the devil….I don’t get it. Thoughts?
I love white potatoes and eat them regularly! Starchy food (including sweet potatoes) aren’t recommended for people who aren’t very active but I support them!
What brand of sausage do you buy? The ground sausage at publix has crappy ingredients and I can’t find any at trader joes…is this something you can only find at Whole Foods?
i buy mine at whole foods or buy boulder sausage
Juli – You have got to try Oak in Boulder! It’s not paleo, but their cabbage salad is paleo-ish, and their menu is amazing!!! Also, they have fresh donuts made in the morning!!! YOU MUST TRY!!!
I know you’re very busy with everything going on, but maybe at some point you can put together a blog post about your favorite eats around Colorado?
It’s always nice to try new places that are healthier and tasty!
Thank you for all your hard work!
I support white potatoes too! Maybe some of the politicians can work THAT into their commercials!
JB, Have you tried Fresh Thyme’s Eatery? That place is pretty awesome! Its in Boulder. Its not strict paleo, but has a lot of good options. Check em out http://www.freshthymeseatery.com/index.html. Blooming Beets is amazing! 🙂
Lindsey! Hi! I’ve heard of Fresh Thymes! I’ll have to try it next time I’m up that way!
JB! If you want, let me know when you come up this way. I work in Boulder, so I could totally meet you over there for lunch sometime! So happy to see that you are just killin’ it 😉
