I need to apologize to you guys. I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted new recipes, but I promise it’s for a good reason. I’m working on a project out in Pittsburgh and all I’ve been doing is cooking out there for this project. You’ll get these recipes at some point so it will all make sense when that happens, but for now all you can take is my apology. Because I love you, you imaginary internet friend. AND I can promise that you will have new recipes come Monday through Thursday next week! I’m getting you ready for the holidays and making sure you are well fed AND well satisfied while still eating paleo.

But just to get you a little excited about my upcoming project, here is a sneak peek at some of the recipes I made this past week in Pittsburgh. I made about 24 recipes and was happy with how all of them came out, which doesn’t always happen! Here is a little peek into my long cooking days:

This project is full of all the recipes and ideas that I would want to eat. Comfort food, easy ideas, and some delicious alcoholic beverages. Yep, alcohol. And since I don’t like the taste of alcohol, I’m making the drinks exactly how I would want them to taste. I can’t wait to share with you what exactly the project is. It’ll be so great when that day comes so I can stop being stupid annoying.

Anywho, this is how busy I’ve been: I only have TWO outfits for you this week. I’m so busy that I don’t even have time to wear real clothes. I’ve been in workout clothes, pajamas, and now a robe all week long. I mean, it’s been below freezing all week here in Colorado so staying indoors, in sweats, is just a better idea. I haven’t even wanted to go grocery shopping since I’ve been back to Colorado. I’ve just been eating eggs and coconut chips. Get it together, Juli.

Ok. So I want to wear these jeans all.the.time. They are SUPER comfortable and don’t look like mom jeans on my butt. I’ve had that issue in the past. No one wants that! PS – can the weather be this gorgeous again, but in Colorado??

{ Dark Turquoise Long Sleeve Blouse found at Inspyre Boutique for $30 – similar blouse | Grey Flying Monkey Skinny Jeans from Hailee Grace Boutique for $54 – similar pair | Bamboo Mozza Burgundy Bootie from DSW for $40 | Taupe Leather Jacket bought last year from Hope’s for $70 – similar for $83 | Light Pink Drop Earrings found at World Market for $12 – similar for $6 }

This was the outfit I wore on my way back to Colorado. I knew it was likely going to be 0 degrees when I got there, so I knew I needed to be bundled up. But before we went to the airport, we had to run errands. I was sweating SO much. Then running through the airport and boarding a plane with a bazillion people…more sweat. But the turning point in all of this was that the two seats next to me on the plane were empty! Hallelujah! Less sweat.

I didn’t include this in the outfit count because I mean, come on. Look at it. I did however wear this before I headed to a workout but needed to walk Jackson. He LOVES the snow so I knew he would be wanting to sprint the whole time around the block. And that’s exactly what we did. I never once got cold. THIS JACKET IS THE BEST THING EVER!!!

    Ok, you’ve totally inspired me to glam up my wardrobe. And by “glam up” I mean buy clothes that I can’t work out in AND only wear workout clothes for workouts (and lounging around). Love the direction you’re taking your blog, and I have a secret guess about your secret project.

    A bloody mary is one of my favorite drinks of all time… and I’m not really a big drinker at all. But YUM that looks amazing. And Thank You for getting ready to post more recipes! I’ve been missing them! (Even though your outfits are super cute… I think I like the food better.) 🙂
