Trader Joes to the Rescue!
O Trader Joe’s how I missed you and your good deals and extremely long line !
How do I start this one? Today while at work I was reading Paleo Plan’s blog and listening to Balanced Bits podcasts (still working :) aka multitasking at its finest) when it hit me……. I really need to spend more time on Sunday afternoons preparing my weekly lunches. So I found an example...
Mugggggggy!!
Waiting on the bus and omg it is so muggy it’s insane! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

We did them this morning during our WOD and I actually “tucked” my jumps!...

Paleo Bread Review!
So while searching for new Paleo recipes to try, I came across this Coconut Flour Paleo Bread from the blog Chocolate & Carrots and knew I had to try it asap! The recipe looked super easy and contained only 6 ingredients…how much easier could it be!?
