I’ve talked about how I have an addictive personality. Well kind of. I get addicted to something and usually love it for around 2 weeks, then we part ways. Rarely do I LOVE something for longer. Nut butters are a different story. We have a bond. I don’t want to get into it. But after 2 weeks, I am usually move onto my next new and exciting addiction. So does that mean I don’t have an addictive personality since I don’t stick with anything? Or do I have an addictive personality since I replace one addiction with another? Yeah, I don’t know either. Stop acting like you do. You’re not a psychologist, and if you are, your skills ain’t got sh*t on me. Believe me, my mom has tried. That was all so confusing.
That just got deep. Anywho. Ok, so I was thinking I would just go on a little rant about what I was addicted to this week. Not that you care, or will even read on after this sentence, but I’m still puttin’ it out there. As you can tell, this blog is a bit of a journal or diary or aplaceiwritedowneverythingi’mthinking spot.
So here we go…
Dear Diary,
These are the things I can’t get out of my mind…this week:
- Fact: Hot sauce is delicious on ANYTHING. Do not try to fight me on this one. I will win.
- More than anything in this world, I wish I had a fig tree. I’m pretty sure that’s where figs come from, but not positive. If I had a fig tree, all I would eat all day long is figs. Well, I’d probably make fig sandwiches with almond butter in the middle too. RECIPE IDEA..ding ding ding!!!!
- Coconut butter should be illegal.
- I just ran out of deer steaks and now my life is very sad.
- Cashews. You bastards.
- Burnt onions. Like caramelized but instead of caramelized, they’re burnt. I love them.
- Sweet potatoes ran my life this week. In every different form known to man. I think I might be having an affair with sweet potatoes. That was a weird and dumb statement. Like I would ever have a husband to have an affair on.
- I want a bag of Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK!?
- Sparkling mineral water is sooooo much better than regular water. It’s my bubbly happy place.
- Weiner dogs. How am I suppose to spell weiner…weener…weaner? Whatever. I love them. I don’t know why. I don’t really like animals. Dogs don’t really excite me. But weiner dogs, I can’t stop giggling. Thank god for pinterest because people pin the sh*t out of dogs and I get to look at them. I think I just snorted from giggling so much.
And I thought I was the only one that liked burnt onions, Yippee!
They are freaking delicious Amanda!
I recently found your blog and site while looking for Paleo recipes. I love your recipes and your blog. Chocolate is my addiction. I wonder if there is a recipe for paleo no bake cookies?
I’ll try to think something up Raira 🙂
hey…love your blog!!! relatively new to paleo..about a month..so.. question…what do you drink.? i struggle with that…water, coffee…tea..i am dying for a diet coke! I read your addiction to sparking waters..those rock for sure.!! Trader joe’s sparkling lime is awesome…but im a bit bored and thus have “cheated” a bit with drinks…you are seriously hilarious…keep it comin!!
I used to be addicted to diet coke angela but the less I drank it, the more I forgot all about it. If I’m ever feeling like something other than water, I usually have a mineral water or coconut water. The coconut water is great if you need something sweet!

I just so happen to have a big ol fig tree in my back yard and it’s busting out some huge purple figs…I picked a bunch today and now have a rather large bowl of them sitting on my kitchen counter just waiting to be turned into something super awesome, like your fig brownies. I’m wondering if they’d be good in your recipe, or should I use dried ones, which I also have. Either way, those brownies are getting made tomorrow. I’ve been reading and really enjoying your ramblings and recipes. Thanks so much for the entertainment and the opportunity to eat paleo and indulge at the same time!
This is hilarious! Juli, thanks for making me smile just by being you. 🙂
