Weekend Wrap Up, 1/24: ALL THE AWESOME: Pulling Trucks! Chocolate! Kids in the Kitchen!

Hello Friends!

We celebrated 13 years of commitment to one another this week! And started it off with an EPIC DINNER at Gypsy Soul restaurant, which focuses on local high quality real foods. Our “keep the romance” date night included Oysters, Brussels Sprouts with Pork Jowl and Cranberries, Swordfish with Pumpkin Puree, and outrageous Short Ribs. The food was out of this world incredible, and the time spent with each other was even better.

Cupcakes in Face, Paleo Parents

We are so thankful for each other and this wonderful life we get to spend together. We are true partners who challenge, support, and help one another in every facet of life – which has pushed us each to become BETTER VERSIONS OF OURSELVES. Thirteen years, and more in love every day!

(PS- how can you not be madly in love with a guy who writes things like this!)

Read all about how we met and fell in love, the catalyst that caused us to actually tie-the-knot, and the family you’ve come to know through our blog from our 10 year vow renewal recap series!

Boys in the Kitchen, Paleo Parents

Stacy is surrounded by an incredible group of strong women! Positive peer pressure sounds a lot like this: “What do you guys want to do today?” “Let’s pull a truck!” These girls are so INSPIRING AND FUN! So after squatting all the weight while training, Stacy got in the harness and took a jaunt in her beloved Reebok high-tops – wet pavement? No problem!

Then on her actually anniversary, Stacy came home early from work to find Cole andFinn in the kitchen all by themselves, with Beyond Bacon open on the counter, making BACON-WRAPPED DATES. They’re getting so gosh darn big… we wish they’d stop! But we love what thoughtful caring people they are becoming.

 

Congrats to Our Friends!

Stefani Ruper of Paleo for Woman released her new ebook, Weight Loss Unlocked: The Paleo Woman’s Solution. Using the smart science behind the paleo diet, but TAILORED TO WOMEN to leverage your female hormones to work for you rather than against you.

One Pot Paleo, Paleo Parents

With our busy lives, we’re suckers for ONE-POT MEALS. We get asked all the time for time saving tips for busy people to avoid hours in the kitchen. One of our tips in Real Life Paleo was utilizing one pot meals. And Jenny Castaneda (Paleo Foodie Kitchen) now presents a whole book full of them with One Pot Paleo! And we were so completely honored write the forward for this gorgeous book we got to preview when we met Jenny in San Diego in 2014! As always, if you pre-order on Amazon, you are guaranteed the lowest price. Put this one on your radar for sure!

And is there any better topic to talk about “over coffee” than chocolate? It’s no secret (especially if you follow me on Instagram) that I’ve tried a lot of chocolate. A LOT.

It’s my duty to bring you the best of the best. I eat chocolate for you guys. Because I love you. And chocolate. And especially these:

Hu Kitchen Chocolate, Paleo Parents

My new obsession: VEGAN, PALEO, DAIRY-FREE, OMG INCREDIBLE CHOCOLATE from Hu Kitchen in NYC (available shipped from Farm to People!) The Crunchy Banana is a must-try.

I also adore —> Eating Evolved (they have such fun flavors… like Crunchy Caramel and Granola Crunch!). Plus, Coconut Butter Cups in flavors like Dark Chocolate Mint Creme.

One of my other go-to, no-fuss chocolate bars is —> Alter Eco Blackout. It’s super dark and super satisfying.

As for baking, we love Equal Exchange —> Bittersweet it’s the ONLY soy-free, dairy-free fair trade Chocolate Chips we know of.
