That’s my excited face.
Oh sh*t. I can’t even hold it in. Word vomit is about to happen. I’M WRITING MY FIRST COOKBOOK!!
I’m literally tearing up just thinking about this. I’ve wanted this for so long and have gone back and forth about how I would accomplish this goal. But once I was approached by Scribe Publishing, I knew it was the right fit. Not only is the Publisher a CrossFitter as well, but she’s a paleo-er who gets my sense of humor and isn’t afraid of what I have to say. She’s so awesome.
I hadn’t thought about a writing a cookbook since my recipes are free over the internet, until readers began to ask for one. Which was very cool. It’s amazing people would actually want to purchase something when they can get it all free online. So really, I’m writing this cookbook for all of you who have supported me and wanted to show that support by purchasing a cookbook. So this cookbook will feature my favorite PaleOMG recipes along with many new recipes you won’t be able to find on the blog. Already have some good stuff for you!!
So what I want to know is, what are YOU looking for in a paleo cookbook? What is helpful to you and what would make your life easier in a paleo cookbook? Please leave your comments below and give your ideas because I’m making this cookbook for YOU all!
ANNNNNNND, omg, yes there is more. I’m now in the first steps of creating a PaleOMG app. Let’s be real here, obviously I am not the person doing it, I know nothing about anything…except sweets, but my good friend Peter who also put my website together for me, is doing the job. He’s amazing and spectacular so I’m trusting him to create something wonderful. BUT I want and need to know what you are looking for in a paleo app. I don’t do apps, I don’t really get them. I downloaded a food porn app once, but I’ve only looked at it once when I was too hungover to get out of bed. True story. So I need to know what people who actually use apps would like to see in a PaleOMG app?
Are you mad because there isn’t a recipe? Don’t you worry, there will be plenty all week!
Wicked awesome!
I was just thinking I wish there was an app for paleomg. Please make it available to droid!! I am super excited about the app and the cookbook!. I would love a section/ chapter whatever you are doing about 21 day sugar detox recipes! Also I would love how to make my own section, nut butter, coconut butter..etc. YAY!!! I would like to pre-order now is that possible?
I just want you to know I NEVER EVER EVER EVER post a reply or say anything on your blog I Just read, laugh, enjoy your blogs, recipes etc. But this deserved a reply! because for all you do, you do deserve it so congrats girl!!!
Congratulations Juli! I love reading your blog and of course your amazing recipes!! I love simple recipes that are tried and true! You know what I mean simple ingredients that create an amazing product that even my husband will eat and love by the way! Add in your funny stories/comments because they are fun to read and maybe even some fun pictures so I can display your cookbook in my kitchen for all my friends to see 🙂
Congrats and can’t wait!! Please please include pictures in your book;)
Congrats and can’t wait!! Please please include pictures in your book;)
I’m with Alyssa, I’m a huge fan and cook from your recipes every week (and laugh my heiny off in the process), but I’m not one to post comments. But THIS is comment worthy! I’m not sure if I’m more excited about the cookbook or the app!! I think for the app I would love it to be simple and user friendly with little commentary (as much as I adore your blog) and LOTS of recipes!
Thanks for everything and congratulations!!!
Julie!! How freaking exciting! So happy for you and I’m so excited! Let me know if you need a photographer….ha, only kidding. 🙂
Can’t wait to hear the updates along the way. Congrats!!!
You should give some of the proceeds to the terry wahls foundation. She really is the one who got me in to paleo as a physician. She, an her lab, study food as medicine, particularly for multiple sclerosis. Funding is nearly impossible except for private donations (and book proceeds). It may help your sales too to be giving to such a great cause. Just a thought. Love your recipes!
I’m so happy for you! I can’t wait to buy your book.
