This weekend is one that my husband and I (yep, that's us in the picture... isn't he a looker?!) have been looking forward to for MONTHS!  We're taking a weekend to relax in the mountains... unplugged from everything.  No computers, no cell phones, etc.  It is so important that we do something like this on a regular basis.  Sometimes we get so caught up in the stresses of daily … [Read more...]

. Today is Day 21!  When I started this challenge, I wondered if this final post would recount a boring, flavorless month.  Well, that is not the case.  I cannot say that the month was not a little difficult for me, because it was.  But as I've said before, everything worth having is worth a little sacrifice.  And after 21 days of strict Paleo (I actually combined my 21 days … [Read more...]

If you are looking for a nice Paleo dessert or treat, this chocolate coconut bark recipe is sure to become a new favorite.  It is easy to make too.
