It’s official! I’m coming to Austin on our book tour for The Paleo Kitchen! We weren’t sure if we were going to be able to book anything on such short notice, but I was lucky enough to chat with the people at CrossFit Central and they are going to host our book signing event there! Dying. I’ve always wanted to go to that gym, but have never made it in in the 2 times I’ve been in Austin. And now I will. I’ll be in nice clothes instead of workout clothes, but I don’t even care. So here is what our book tour looks like in Texas starting this Sunday:
- On Sunday July 13th at 7 PM we will be in Dallas at Half Price Books: 5803 E. Northwest Hwy., Dallas, Texas 75231
- On Monday July 14th at 7 PM we will be in Austin at CrossFit Central – Burnet Road Location: 6205 Burnet Rd. Austin, TX 78757
- On Tuesday, July 15th at 7 PM we will be in Houston at Blue Willow Bookshop: 14532 Memorial Drive, Houston, TX, 77079
Balls. I need to figure out my outfits. Like now. And get my roots done. My lord they are disgusting. I don’t even want to talk about the pedicure I need done. I’m a sh*t storm over here.
I don’t want to brag, but I’m going to. This shake is delicious. I remember when someone was offended when I talked about how good a recipe was. What a douche. Why would I share my sh*tty recipes? It makes absolutely no sense. “Oh hey. This recipe tastes similar to donkey dump. Enjoy!” People these days.
Jackson decided it was a good idea to walk on top of my face while I was half asleep and cut my lip open (I’m exaggerating) with his toenails. Gross, I know. But stick with me. I think he is just trying to tell me that he needs his nails trimmed, but he’s just telling me in his own way. Lucky for him, I’ll ask them to do that when it’s time to cut his baby makers off. Poor kid, I do feel bad about that. And he will sure hate me for about a week after it happens. But man will his toenails look good.
Ok back to the book tour. What are you favorite places to eat in Dallas, Austin, and Houston? I need a list of all of them! I’ve tried a ton of places in Austin with friends, but I’m happy to try more. And I have some friends and family in Dallas that may lead the way. But I need YOUR advice, because it’s probably better than my families. Let’s be real. Leave a comment below with your favorite restaurant! And dessert spot. Obviously.
Oh and one more thing. I made this as my post workout snack the other day and it was AWESOME. Fact of the day. And I drank it with my new favorite glass straws! Check them out here!
Vanilla Cream Mango Milkshake + Texas Book Tour Dates
- Yield: 1-2 1x
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup coconut cream (the hard layer at the top of canned coconut milk after it’s left in the fridge overnight)*
- 1 cup diced frozen mango
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 scoop Vanilla Protein (if you don’t want to use protein, use about 1 tablespoon of sweetener: honey, maple syrup, coconut nectar, etc.)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender.
- Blend.
- Serve.
- Love.
Notes
*I use canned coconut cream that you find in the store next to the canned coconut milks. If you cannot find coconut cream, simply place a can of full fat coconut milk in the fridge overnight and the cream and water will separate. The cream is what you use in this recipe.
I spy a little Jackson man.

Hi I am actually moving to Dallas this Sunday so this is perfect timing! I will not fly in until 9pm though and then I want to rush to the book store, do you know how late you will be there until on the 13th??
probably 9:30 at the latest, but I can’t promise anything 🙁
This smoothie sounds awesome! It’s mango season in Florida so this was posted at the perfect time. Yum!
That looks so delicious!!
The Egg & I in Austin. Ate there twice last year while visiting when my husband was in the DPS Academy. Very tasty. Very reasonable.
Magnolia Cafe in Austin for breakfast. So good. Always a line. Torchy’s for tacos. You can get gluten-free, corn shell tortillas. (Sorry, haters.) But Austin pretty much has the best food ever, so you can’t go wrong. Come to Buffalo, N.Y.! That’s not a joke, but it’s funny, I know.
Okay, but seriously, I’m absolutely positive my gym (CrossFit 716) would love to host you. Kthanksbyeeeee.
Torchy’s is awesome, but I also love Taco Deli. TD’s only open until 3:00, so heads up there.
Also, since you’re going to be on Burnet Rd, try Phil’s Ice House (burgers and sweet potato fries!) which shares a building with Amy’s Ice Cream, which is local and amazing.
If they’re around, there’s a great taco truck called Chilantro, which are Korean bbq tacos etc. I LOVE THEM.
Pecan Lodge in Dallas! They have awesome BBQ! They are only open 11-3 on Sunday though…
Looks delicious! Perfect timing as we’re having our customary 4 days of sun in the UK at the moment.
You should start sharing sh*tty recipes too. Maybe just once a month to confuse people, and to keep that guy happy.
genius
In Dallas, it’s Origins Kitchen + Bar and Hg Sply Co! So good.
You should thank those people who make comments like, “You shouldn’t brag about your recipes.”
That is hilarious and classic material. Thank you for sharing that stuff, and making me laugh almost every day.
For me: fashion is great, recipes are better and the laughs are the best.
The best place for breakfast in Dallas is Kozy’s (GF and organic with tons of paleo options)
Austin fav’s are Wholly Cow Burger (grass fed burgers, portabella buns and the best sweet potato fries ever) and Lick (coconut milk ice cream!)
In Houston, recommendations would be Corner Table (has a full Paleo menu) and Beaver’s (a great BBQ place that serves meat from local farms, they also have GF fried pickles and an amazing cocktail menu)
Hope you have a great visit to TX!
Spiderhouse Café in Austin has such a great vibe. (Let’s be real, the entire city of Austin has a great vibe) And the Hula Hut is a beautiful place! Torchy’s if you’re craving tacos. Trudy’s if you’re in the need for a badass dirty martini. 🙂
