Haha. Whip.
You all are going to hate me. And judge me. I know it, I just know it. I kind of cheated. Well, not kind of, I did. I drank alcohol. And alcohol isn’t exactly allowed on the 21 day sugar detox. Oopsies poopsies. Ok let’s talk about why I gave in.
Sergio leaves for Afghanistan in 2 weeks. He’s also an assh*le and said that if he dies, this would be the last time we drank together. It’s not funny, but his humor blows. Give him a break. I’m kidding, I love him. So when I showed up to the bar for Sergio’s ‘see you next year’ bash, he handed me 3 shots of Grey Goose. Yes, three. Yes, I took them. Yes, my stomach was a bit woozy. But the night went wonderfully. Like, OMG good. As soon as 4 shots hit my stomach, the music finally got better. Amazing. The DJ remixed ‘Call Me Maybe’ with ‘Feel So Close’. Yeah. It was awesome. And if you don’t know those two songs, google them then imagine them making love and having a child out of wedlock. Pretty awesome.
When I got home, I drunkenly ate carrot chips. So dedicated to paleo. I got jokes! Anywho, I thankfully don’t feel guilty about it. My friend is going to Afghanistan for 6 months, I wasn’t going to be a complete douche and not drink because I’m sugar detoxing. That’s just dumb to me. And you know what, I had the best night I’ve had in a looong time. Yes, I could have danced without alcohol ruining my liver and increasing my ass size, but then I would have noticed the people staring on with offended eyes. And that would have been just embarrassing.
I left the bar literally soaking in sweat. I could even ring out the sweat from my hair. That’s a good way to get the guys. Make yourself look like a wet poodle. I was a living poodle.
Disclaimer: Drinking is bad for you. And vodka isn’t paleo. Don’t be bad.
It’s funny how I hate sports but I love the Olympics.
I watched 4 movies this weekend. By myself. I need to find a man. Damn poodles.
Oh by the way, I swear this cake isn’t as dry as it looks. I swear!

this sounds really good!!! no one is judging you for a lil bit of booze… i won’t even tell you what i consumed this weekend.
It looks delish… but how does it really taste? I gave up all sugar June 1st so I wont be adding any sweetener. Want to make sure its worth the trip to the store!
it’s not super sweet but the chocolate on top actually helps. i even poured some coconut milk on top to keep the sweet moist taste of it!
OMG I need this in my life today. I made your carrot cake pudding stuff, delicious, but thought, hey this would be better if it had pumpkin in it, and voila, you made some pumpkin shit today. Love you! I’m going to try the pudding too with roasted pumpkin once fall comes, I figure that would be delicious. Making this tonight since i keep pumpkin around for my pup to throw in her food (lucky bitch) and we can share our pumpkin together.
You are officially one of my most favorite people…I am trying a sugar detox right now and this is just what I need in my life!!! It looks amazing and I know it has to be I have LOVED all of your recipes that I have tried. Thanks for the amazing recipes and the always entertaining post…You always make me laugh!!!
Ok, so I just tried to make this and I think something may be missing in the recipe… like maybe a flour of some sort? It kind of turned out like a cinnamon scrambled egg. Lol. I tried the carrot cake pudding yesterday and it was phenomenal!! So, hopefully I can get this one right sometime soon : )
SAME ISSUE for me! Cinnamon scrambled eggs… not so tasty 🙁
I accidentally left out coconut flour but changed the recipe a couple days ago. did you use the coconut flour?
Jennifer same thing happened to me! My mom and I just tried it an it was a cinnimon omlette 🙁 I was thinking maybe using a tablespoon of almond flour?
Bummer. Well, I’m thinking she may have used some coconut flour since she is off of nuts right now. But, I also think that there should be more pumpkin b/c the color was not orange at all either. @ Juli- I’m totally not hating on you, girl. I still love all of your recipes : )
Sorry about that, completely left out the coconut flour which is obviously REALLY important lol. it’s in there now!
recipe is all fixed!
What about Ciroc? Or a lesser (like half the price) brand Boomerang (that I use) that is grape based vodka?
What if.. I know this is crazy… you dont have a microwave? can I make this on the stove?
I want to give you an enormous hug for being so damn creative.
Made this last night. It was so good, I got out all the ingredients again and made another bowl. I know eating two bowls kind of defeats the purpose of a healthy dessert, but I couldn’t resist. I didn’t actually make the chocolate whip because I’m lazy. Instead I just drizzled a tiny bit of honey across the top for a little sweet kick (obviously not sugar-detoxing).
