I felt a bit less addicted to things this week. Maybe it’s because I was less emotional, therefore not having the f*cked up mindspace to search for things to fill those voids. Not sure that made sense, but it did to me. I did feel a bit of an addiction to the chocolate coconut bark that I made this week. That was pretty epic. Thankfully I have girlfriends that will help me consume most of that. It always makes you feel better as a person when your friends will eat with you. That’s why I could never have weirdly skinny friends. Friends who barely eat are sh*tty friends. Period.
But I did have some exciting new things happen.
- I learned that my legs are not really in the mood to work this week. Meaning that every time I prepare myself for an air squat, I want to die. Ok, die is really exaggerating, but it takes me a while to even get in a squatting position. Thank god we have high toilets here. Life would suck with toilets on the ground.
- I also have teamed up a little bit with The New Primal. That’s the company I was telling you about the other day that sells jerky, dried fruit, and nut packets…they fit in your pocket, the the name Pocket Paleo. Makes sense. Not for me, since I don’t even remember what it’s like to have pockets, but I have a purse. A huge purse to be exact. I love them. They are saving my life between coaching classes. And if you use the PaleOMG code, you get 10% off your order!! Check them out!!
- I found out that when you bake sweet potatoes for about an hour, they become really soft. Like OMGSOFT. No need to even mash them. Just bake them for a disgusting amount of time then use some muscle to chuck them into a bowl and you have instant mashed sweet potatoes. I’m a genius.
- I remembered how much I LOVE the movie ‘Something Borrowed’. Dear.Lord. I love that movie. It makes me kinda, sorta, maybe believe in love. And it makes me want to read the book, ‘Something Blue.’ I probably won’t. Just being realistic. Goals though, it all starts with goals.
- I still hate olives. But I love sea side cheddar. Freaking love bro. Thank god for Whole Foods samples.
- When I actually drink water during the day, I only have to pee like 26 times a day. Thank god peeing is so convenient when I’m coaching.
- I saw pee in a beer mug in the alley. Yep, pee. It could be beer, but who would leave behind beer. I’m grossed out.
- I got a new camera. Nope, I was GIVEN a new camera by my amazing web programmer Peter. He had one lying around and sent it to me so my pictures would stop sucking ass. Now maybe you’ll have something to look forward to when you check out my site!! Let’s all thank Peter together!! THANK YOU PETER!
- I figured out I don’t like coffee in my butt crack. FYI, don’t leave coffee mugs filled with coffee sitting on your couch. #Badidea.
- Best for last. Guess what happened today? Something great. I now have PaleOMG women’s shirts available for purchase. Well, not me, but my good friend’s at Renegade Fitness have them ready for you to check out. You see, my good friend Tom and the other owner’s of Renegade Fitness, Greg and Orion, asked if I would be interested in having them sell PaleOMG shirts on their website. Sh*t yeah I said yes!! So if you are interested in purchasing a white PaleOMG tank top or black PaleOMG tshirt, check out their site. Sorry guys, no mens shirts at this time. I know you were totally wanting to sport a PaleOMG shirt around. But hey, if you do, you should leave a comment so I know! Or just buy a women’s tank. Hey, we don’t discriminate! Soon I will have a permanent link on my page, just you wait 🙂
Wanna see what they look like?! The great hand of Jason took these pictures. So they are shaky. Don’t judge. Okcoolthanksbye.
Love the new shirts! Cn you do the tank top in black? 🙂
I think we will definitley be doing that next time Erika!!
Love the shirts!
Thanks Jessica!
Love the shirts! Side note: Wish Orion had these at CFLW yesterday. Was DYING in my stupid effing long sleeve running shirt (WTF WAS I THINKING? Not sure.) and had to stop mid WOD to buy a tshirt. Tried to find something not too conspicuous and wound up with a renegade fitness shirt that says something about “training elite athletes”on the back. Which I am not. And had no idea it said that til I was home. Right. Wont be wearing that shirt for at least ten months til I’m semi-decent. But will sport one of yours in the meantime. U go with the new cute merch!
Now you can get one from Orion!! They better hang them up on the wall!!!!
Love the shirts! I’ve only been reading your site for about a month and am totally addicted! Your recipes are bomb-diggity delicious! Plus. You crack me up.
Thanks for reading my blog Jessica!!!
ah, okay, so don’t drink coffee and leave it ‘laying’ around! good to know 😉
Can I get a paleomg shirt even though I’m not a strict paleo eater?
hell yeah you can Amy!!
Love the shirts!! Totally getting one, but you’re out of Small in the tank…what size are you wearing in the pictures? I might get a black T-shirt, too. They’re both super cute!
Yeah we sold out of those already!! Craziness!! I’m wearing a medium in that picture and I’m a size 6-8 usually
Oh, glad I asked! I’m gonna need a Medium then! Payday Thursday!! 😀
yay!!!
The New Primal pocket paleo packs are THE BEST. perfect after a WOD for a girl that is always on the go like me! They give me that extra ‘umph’ to get through my crossfit and dance fixes every week.
They are super awesome huh Allyson!?
You say that no one sits around waiting to read your blog…. well Im @ work on a Saturday and Im waiting around for a post!!! 🙂 I also might add its one of the first things I do when I come into work in the morning @ 8 AM…. Hows that for borderline obsessed. Anyways, since Im sitting at work I thought I’d take the time to comment on how much I enjoy your blog, like-minded sarcasm – Or should I say wit?, our equal love of food – Paleo style of course – and nut butters… and Im on month two of crossfit, the obsession there is building as well. Thanks for all the recipes, info, and laughs you’ve brought to my days!
haha Sorry Dana, I rarely post on weekends because I’m always out and about or making recipes for the next week! I really appreciate your support though, you are freaking awesome!! Good luck with your CF path, you’re definitely in for a new addiction!
hi! what size shirt are you wearing in the photos? i really want to get the tank but not sure what size i would need to get. thanks! ps: i love your blog! your rant on how people comment on your food choices was great. i can definitely relate. thanks!
okay so i just read some of the comments and saw you’re wearing a medium…probably should have read the posts before i posted…anyway…still love the blog 😉
I’m wearing a medium and I’m a size 6-8 Erin. Glad you r liking the blog!! Thanks for commenting!
HellOOOOOO,
Just passively mentioning something like
” chocolate coconut bark” !?!?!? You can’t just leave us hanging here. It doesn’t search on your site. And now I WANT SOME!!
pleasepostrecipesoon!!!
In the meantime, I’m going to make something up … I’ll let you know how it goes.
Love your site and now I ‘need’ another stupid shirt! Thanks a lot.
Hahaha Tara I plan on posting it Tuesday!!! Stay tuned!! lol and thank you for your support with the shirts 🙂
Let’s just say I only consider something a full failure if I have to throw part of it away…. ie. me or one of the other 3 carnivores at my house don’t eat it. I’m not opposed to bribery or threats… I don’t like failure.
My “make something up” for chocolate coconut bark will probably be consumed. Mine was attempting chocolate coconut almond…. delight. …. I’m not posting the recipe and I’m looking forward to your post. 🙂
just you wait!! it is SO delish!
