Chocolate problems...

Remember my obsession with cake pops? My friend Kregie made this for me. I had to eat it... it's only polite. And it was Nutella flavored, so you really can't not eat something Nutella flavored. Have you seen pinterest? Half the recipes on there are Nutella flavored... because: Women. Love. Nutella. 
I made more cauliflower crust pizza. This time I was more successful at making it actually taste like pizza because I added a TON of sauce, and cheese on top this time. Sooooo much dairy. It was delicious. 
Sweet potato + honey + cinnamon = pretty delish. 
I was having some serious dessert problems this week. And when I say problems I mean cravings that I filled. Believe it or not, these are ALL paleo. Therefore, they are GOOD for me and my soul. 


I'll start at the left. PaleOMG Sweet Potato Brownies! AMAZINGLY delicious! I got the crossfit and yogi approval. I also do a lot of yoga. When I am a teacher you should probably take my class because it will be the best class ever.  
Avocado Chocolate Pudding. Oh my dear lord. This tastes exactly like pudding, except that you can convince yourself it is healthy. At least I can.
PaleOMG Fudgy Brownies. My partner in crime, AKA Christie, made these. They were less fudgy than I had hoped but I still popped 4 in a row into my mouth, so you can interpret that however you want. 

I did eat some real food. Guess where I found this recipe?! I guess you'll have to click on the link to find out. Tomato Cream Chicken Sausage Pasta. Super easy and yummy. A+. 

I went to The Keg with my friend Ashleigh. I can't afford anything there so I got Escargot for $6... because that's paleo right? Probably not... The snail and mushrooms were at least. It was close.  I did not eat the bread.
DO NOT FREAK OUT. THIS IS PALEO. 
Don't question it, and consume. You'll be happy you did. 
Dear lord. I can't figure out why I am not losing weight?

"Cheap" study food from Whole Foods. I was super bitter when Cory made my put the edamame back. Stupid soy.

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

So I had a really sad experience yesterday. I walked into a Starbucks to go study and I wasn’t allowed to eat a cake pop. Worse, the barista told me he had just got the brownies out just for me! I must look like I like chocolate a lot. Or maybe, like I said before, most women like chocolate so he made an assumption. Anyways, I decided in that moment that I must make these Paleo Fig Fudge Balls . It’s about substitutions friends! And I have been meaning to make a really delicious dessert lately because I promised my dear friend Katy I would send her some love in the form of food. She lives in OK. It’s really sad. Don’t get me started. BTW, she also has a blog . She’s extremely intelligent. I learn about issues I didn’t even know existed. I added coconut milk to my sweet potatoes in the morning because it was a little dry without. Good move Danielle. This was delicious. (and then I put the spinach and eggs on top) Then I ate this “blackened salmon.” Yeah, I know. It’s not blackened,
