Oh hey there! Did u miss me?! Let’s be realistic, of course you did. I’ve been slightly MIA lately and a terrible Blogger. This is based upon a few reasons. Let’s review.
1. I haven’t cooked anything worth talking about lately. My diet has consisted of pounds of broccoli and insanely good grass fed beef burgers. Delicious but boring to most taste buds.
2. I haven’t gone out much therefore I have no stories to give you.
3. All I do is CrossFit. While I think my wods are worth talking about because I’m usually almost in tears while trying to chase down my training partner Jason, most people really don’t give a sh*t.
But I’m back, and I’m ready to salivate your taste buds with stories from my boring life and thoughts from my dirty mind. That didn’t really make sense. Anywho, speaking of a dirty mind, let’s talk about guy’s butts. I mean, I workout and hang out with some pretty fantastic looking guys, and the mind wanders at times. Before CrossFit, I never even thought twice about a guys ass. They always seemed pretty boring to me. And honestly, kind of useless. But then I began the CrossFitting lifestyle and noticed that guys had butts you could bounce a penny off of, maybe even a quarter….and that just cannot go unnoticed.
So the other day, I was checking out my friend Tom and noticed how fantastic his butt looked. I asked him where his shorts were from and he told me they are the fight shorts his company Renegade Fitness made. They’re super legit. I’m saying definitely even better than Lulu. If you’re a CrossFitter or just want to look like one, these shorts are fantastic. Not only do they stretch so when you’re squatting like a pro below parallel, you don’t get the crotch tear, but your butt will look like a taut ham. What does that look like? Effin’ good. Check them out and then I’ll check you out. And no, this is not a cross-promotion because Tom is not promoting my blog. Nor is he making shorts my ass look fantastic in. But let’s be realistic here, there is no hope for my ass looking better. That would take a team of plastic surgeons and miracles. I’ll stick with squats for now. But at least I can day dream about dudes butts in these shorts. I may even be thinking about yours….
Creepy.
I made pancakes today!!! I didn’t think of this recipe by myself. Fail Juli. Fail.
This recipe is modified by Eat the Cookie. She’s legit. Knows her sh*t.
Paleo Carrot Cake Pancakes
Ingredients
- 1 cup carrots, shredded
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup almond meal
- 1/2 cup canned coconut milk-full fat-duh.
- 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
- 2 tablespoon coconut oil
- 2 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- lots of: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg
- handful of raisins
- 1 tablespoon coconut butter per 3 pancakes
- lots of maple syrup, obviously!
Instructions
- Mix all dry ingredients together in a large bowl: almond meal, coconut flour, baking soda and powder, and spice together.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients: carrots, eggs, coconut milk, coconut oil, and raisins. Mix thoroughly.
- Heat a large skillet or pancake griddle up under medium-high heat and use coconut oil to grease the surface. I used a coconut oil spray that isn’t totally paleo but it’s easy and I like easy. So suck it.
- Pour batter into small pancakes onto hot griddle. Cook on both sides for 3 or so minutes.
- Top pancakes off with coconut butter and maple syrup. Then eat them. I would honestly pair the pancakes with a breakfast sausage. Meals without meat are stupid.

Ok, so I’ve been delving into CrossFit and love and recently decided to try a Paleo-ish diet. I was terrified of trying but reading your blog is totally making me excited about it! Also you are fucking hilarious and your rant about what you eat and how people need to suck it if they don’t like is awesome.
I checked out a really nice masculine crossfit bum yesterday. very taut and manly. bent over in front of me post wod. couldn’t help myself. that is all.
going to go make deez ‘cakes now!
I love men
ditto homegirl, dih-toe. btw these were awesome and almost made me vom post wod. smartest idea eating them before burpees? proooobably not, but idga-hoot.
Haha best line ever. And the pancakes were delicious.
I made these last weekend…so awesome! Even my non Paleo sister loved them!!
That’s great Sherianne!
Made these a few minutes ago – doubled the recipe. Hubby said you can’t tell the diff between this pancake and a ‘regular’ one. They were a hit
That’s freaking awesome, glad you guys liked them!
We JUST started the whole family on Paleo this week and I’ve toyed with some recipes that were just NOT so great. I’m so happy I stumbled upon your site. These pancakes were AMAZING. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I hope you aren’t sick of me saying this~but YOU ROCK!!! I’ve been searching for the perfect paleo pancake and I’m pretty sure this is it!! They passed the testing of my teenagers!! I did add a teeny bit of honey and almost a tablespoon of cinnamon to a double batch. I considered only making a single “trial” batch, but then I realized this was one of your recipes and I haven’t had a bad one yet! So glad I doubled. There are a few left that will toast up for a yummy breakfast before work tomorrow.
