It’s unfortunate that finding great-sourced protein isn’t as simple as walking in your local grocer these days. Well, unless you’ve done your homework and know where to shop and exactly what you’re looking for. We’ve done our research, and it still feels as though we’re learning something new every day. Even the shops that do source the healthiest forms of meat don’t always make it easy on the shoppers… from terms from like organic to natural to grass-fed but, wait, […]

This past weekend, Jake and I attended the Whole 9 Life Foundations of Nutrition Workshop with Melissa and Dallas (and Jake also attended day 2 which was the Trainer’s Nutrition Workshop), hosted by CrossFit Fort Vancouver in Vancouver, WA. And while we learned a lot of great stuff while we were there, I couldn’t help it that the quote above is what stuck with me. I thought it might help any of you newbies to Paleo. Basically, it refers to the […]

Hi Paleo Friends! Wow! Soooo sorry for the extra-long absence! I don’t know what happened! Oh wait, I decided to open up a Boudoir Photography Studio… kept me a bit busier than I had anticipated :) But, the studio is up and running, and even though we’re fast approaching the busy 2010 Wedding season, life is feeling a bit back to normal. I have lots of photos and some new recipes to share as well, but I thought I’d kick […]

You were the newspaper boy, and your rode your bike down the street, and obstacles came out – increasingly faster and more frequently as the game went one – and you had to try to avoid them as you threw the newspapers to each doorstep. Ring a bell? Anyway, that’s what I feel like it’s like being on Paleo sometimes. You’re on your Paleo path, trying to stay on the […]

Okay, so while eating a complete Paleo diet will leave you totally energized and feeling great, sometimes all that chopping, rinsing, marinating, grilling, roasting and even chewing can leave you just a bit exhausted, wishing you had just a few more minutes back into your day. So, maybe, take a break and let someone else do the cooking! Sounds nice, doesn’t it? We have a local resource here in the Seattle area that can deliver FRESH Paleo Meals right to […]

I’m kidding. Sort of… If you’re anywhere on the Paleo map (new to the diet or well-seasoned), your Paleo diet may have come up in a recent conversation or two with your loved ones. I’m guessing that they’ve then done one of two things. Laughed out loud, rolled eyes, or tossed you what I called a “crazy” card Been interested enough to hear you talk about it, and then laughed out loud, rolled eyes, or tossed you a crazy card […]

As I sit down to write this, I feel as though I am sitting upon a Paleo Pedestal. Jake and I began eating Paleo about a year ago – right before we joined Gravity Janes. Nine months later, my sister Shelley (co-author of the blog here) began her Paleo Diet, and I was so excited for her. One month after that, in January of this year, our parents joined the Gravity Janes 6-Week Nutrition Challenge, and are now Paleo eaters […]
