More food :).

Remember when I told you I am a culinary genius? I was lying to you. I'm sorry. BUT, I am getting much better at cooking salmon! This actually tasted good! I had a heart attack when I cut the sweet potato open and it wasn't pink. I was so mad at King Soopers. Anyways, it's a yellow sweet potato. 
Yesterday the 9 year-old boy I nanny grabbed my phone while I was on pinterest and found this. He thought it was hysterical. I am still praying to God that he didn't actually understand it. 
I made another recipe from PaleOMG! This is the Chicken Butternut Squash Pesto. Don't judge it from the picture. For some reason this dish takes horrible pictures. I lovvveee this pesto :). Cut your squash smaller than I did, and then it will cook even with the chicken. 
I took a picture of my breakfast for you this morning, because I thought it was pretty. 
You know what brightens my day? Changing the color of the pen I am writing with. Yep... You think I am sad person now. I might actually be a sad person. You might be right. Every time I get to change pen colors it means I am moving onto a new section in my MCAT chapter! WOOOO!
Those are my pens in the blurry background. I did this with the ap, Yummy!Cam. 
That is honey. I ate this like Pooh Bear, right out of the jar. The only difference is I used a butter knife (only because the spoon wouldn't fit) instead of my whole hand. I love Pooh :). 

I REALLY want to make these!!!

Who I Would Be

I am sort of obsessed with Elizabeth Gilbert. I think we have similar souls (I think a lot of people feel that way about her). I read "Eat, Pray, Love" and "Committed," and I cannot wait for her new book, "The Signature of All Things," coming out in October. I think she's quite brilliant. However, my favorite quote ever from her is not out of one of her books; it is the response to a question someone asked on her Facebook page. They asked what advice she would give her younger self: "Dearest Younger Liz — I know you believe that romance is the most exciting and important thing on earth, but please lay off the boyfriend drama for a little while, would you? Learn to live alone. Learn to endure the sometimes agonizing unease of your own company—and work your way through that unease. Learn to comfort yourself. Learn to take accountability for yourself. Learn to recognize the difference between where you stop and another person begins. Learn to te

So I saw this quote on pinterest. Good old pinterest. I learn so much on there... like how to waste time. And how to make delicious desserts, like these. If you want the links just look on my pinterest page. I have some serious food porn on there. Anyways, I have been in this debate with myself about how much information is too much information? Do people actually want to know my reflections on life? The reason I read PaleOMG religiously is more so because of the honest writing than the recipes. I love the recipes, obviously, but it's why I choose to read that blog over any other blog. So anyways, I guess I am going to try to write about what I am inspired by. I have been reflecting a lot on paleo eating recently. It was my 1 month anniversary yesterday!  (of eating paleo that is). Here's the deal. If you asked me two weeks ago if I was going to stick with it, I would have told you in a super whiny voice, "I cannot freaking wait until this stupid experiment i

Finding perspective

You know what sucks? Breaking up sucks. It's a well known fact. It makes me want to swear off men and become neutral (not gay, not lesbian, not straight). Yes, neutral. So then why do I do it over and over again anyways? Why do we all do it over and over and over again, even though when it ends it sucks the life out of you? Oh right, because of the high that comes from falling for someone. The comfort you find in being held. The joy you feel from having a best friend who wants to be with you, and only you. That's why we do it. And we hope that someday one relationship will last forever. I am reminding myself of this right now, because it would be easy to be neutral. But how joyous would it be? To miss the highs in order to avoid the lows. It would be a very boring and neutral life. No one wants that, so we keep hoping and trying, and one day maybe it will work out. Maybe it wont, but at least we got to experience what it feels like to feel for another. And feeling, whether it
