People like easy things. Especially men. They like simple, easy recipes. And easy women. They can’t help it, they just do. Ok, geez I’m kidding. Only 94% of men like easy women. The other 6% are married. Eeeek, I just offended a lot of people. Oops. And now my guy friends are going to text me today to tell me that I’m being whiny. The other day, while drinking alcoholic beverages, they informed me that I’m annoying. This is something that is a true statement. BUT they said it was because I’ve been so whiny lately on my blog about being single.
Ok guys. Let’s chat. All my guy friends are single because they want to be. Not because they haven’t met a nice girl. They literally just like being with the bros, spitting beer at each other, and yelling obscenities. And I get it. Bros do bro stuff. Who needs b*tches when you got your bros fo’ life, right? Well, the tough part for me is I don’t like beer. And I cuss enough on my blog that I don’t have to yell it in public places. So, I actually think spending time with a nice man would be a great. And since that nice man isn’t around, I’m forced to be a bro with all my guy friends, so I’m going to whine about it on my blog. That’s just fact. I think you should thank me for not whining to you all about it, instead, utilizing the world wide web for that purpose. You’re welcome.
Oh goodness. I’m so happy and excited. I leave for California tomorrow!! For the ‘Fuel the Fire’ Fundraiser at CrossFit Anaerobic 2 in Laguna Niguel! It’s going to be awesome. Do you live in California? Do you like CrossFit and paleo? Do you want to show me around California? Perfect. Be there. You can sign up here!! Do it!
Speaking of awesome events for charity, yet another one is coming up. But this one is in Colorado! My good friend, Clark from CrossFit South Denver, will be hosting Denver Bears for Kids Charity Competition! The charity competition will be October 27th from 1-4 pm and ALL proceeds will go to Denver Children’s Home. It’s a competition built for all levels of CrossFitters. AND PaleOMG will be representing at the competition to help raise some extra money. For every $10 raised, Clark and I will do 1 burpee. And there will be a race to see who can finish the burpees first. Should be fun, in a disturbing way. Thankfully I love burpees. Check out the link to sign up or to just donate!! Hope to see some faces there!
I just ate the sh*t ton of plantains. Like, dear god Juli. Get your life together.

Easy and Yummy! Can’t beat that! Thank you, Juli!
I saw your picture in an ad for ‘fuel the fire’ in Paleo Magazine! Pretty awesome! Wish I could attend. Apparently I need to move closer to cool stuff.
I like your whining. I mean, your recipes are great and all, but the bitching is what makes this blog so awesome.
I agree! I am a super cool awesome chick too and for the life of me dont get wtf I’m single. I mean damn, I’m a good catch! So, keep bitchin girl…. It’s cathartic !
I should probably get over my fear of fish and make this.
This looks lovely. And thank you for reminding me how much fun looking for a nice man isn’t. Is it wrong that I’m glad I’m old and married? 😛
we have been enjoying lots of salmon lately, it has been on sale at our store so we are loving it. Salmon is the best
this looks so good. i should really try to make it but i have this weird obsession with how i make salmon already. i found the outback steakhouse grilled salmon recipe and it is the BOMB. it’s the only way i’ve been making it for the past 2 weeks and now i can’t even imagine eating it another way. your herb mixture sounds nice though and if i ever branch out, i will use this recipe.
The only reason I can think you’re single is guys are wussies and are intimidated by you. You’re smokin’ not and can cook. What more would a smart man want??? Anyway, carry on.
How about an easy Mac-nut encrusted mahi-mahi, eh? Or at least chicken 😀

Even married men like easy women! Also, the cool thing about being an annoying drunk person is that you often wont remember it (if you don’t remember it didnt happen)
