Paleo Buns

I honestly don’t miss bread. Don’t tell my family though, I’m pretty sure it’s a sin if you’re Italian. Sometimes you just want a burger that’s not wrapped in lettuce. I played around with a few recipes until I found something that was pretty awesome and delicious. Fair warning, I don’t know if I would consider

The Bathroom Update

Last time I talked about the bathroom, I had done literally nothing. That was over a year ago, and I’m still no where near done. I have made a few improvements though! Just to refresh your memories, here’s what I started with. Yuck dude. Check out this post if you wanted to know the plan

Paleo Blueberry Sorbet

Here in my home, were ice cream people. It was probably one of the harder things to give up, that being store brought ice cream. I can’t even tell you how many dates Brian and I have had that ended with a milkshake. I actually received an ice cream maker for Christmas well before we knew we

Coconut Encrusted Flounder

I’m sharing my first Paleo recipe today, how exciting! While I’m sure I’m not the first person to make coconut encrusted fish, I didn’t reference any recipe. This is 100% me just trying to use up what we had in the house before our big shopping day. For those of you who don’t know what

Week In Review

Had a bit of a quiet week this week, although it was much needed. I did go out Friday night and danced, I’m only just recovering. We’ve had a bit of a warm, but wet, spell here in the Midwest. While it’s a nice break from winter it’s made with a horridly muddy house thanks to certain pup.

Packing Up Christmas

One of my favorite times of year is officially over. It’s time to say so long to all my fun holiday decorations.  In a bid to be proactive on the organizational hell that is my basement, I decided to pack Christmas up right. Not to mention the fact I dealt with a lot of broken ornaments when I unpacked them this

The Bedroom

This is what the bedroom looked like when we first were shown our house. It was in really rough shape. I hated it mostly for the huge AC unit (that doesn’t make sense because we have central air) is permanent unless we get someone to come out and patch the siding and huge interior hole

IPF: A Whole New Year

I’ve had quite a busy holiday season.  After Christmas my good friend Alex and his girlfriend came and visited from my old hometown. We had a blast and it’s always fun to be a tourist in your own city. We spent some time in Northside at a few of our old favorite hang outs. Had some delicious brunch at
