Hahah just kidding I am nowhere near bashing
paleo- quite the opposite in fact, I have nothing but positive things to say
about it. However, I have noticed that people often have a lot to say about it,
and not all of them are positive. That being said, a lot of the time people
just tend to be really interested about the concept of paleo (or any lifestyle
different from their own I suppose) and what it entails. Unfortunately, I don’t yet have all that many answers or explanation as to all of the
why’s of paleo (especially not in French, which I’ve been called upon to do
many times over the past couple weeks and have somehow managed most of the
time. )
I’ve noticed that people also seem to think
that the paleo lifestyle is pretty extreme, and I feel like it’s my duty to
tell them that it really isn’t, and that it isn’t a fad diet or restrictive at
all…I guess that’s part of what makes it difficult to explain or justify, is
that I don’t feel like I should have to, it all seems pretty natural and
obvious to me (which probably is a sign that it may be extreme…)
However, luckily for me, there is a TON of
information out there! Just need to find the time to read it, and wait until
the 47 people ahead of me at the Victoria public library are done reading Practical Paleo, Paleo for athletes and The paleo solution!
Anywho, one of the only challenging things
I’ve found about this challenge it being invited over for brunch/dinner and not
wanting to be rude by not trying something a host has prepared….I’ve usually been
able to compromise though. I made El’s signature Egg-Nana pancakes (the link to
her recipe is the first thing that comes up when you google eggnana!!) to a
brunch recently and they were enjoyed (I think!).
I added some cinnamon,
shredded coconut and almond butter. We put frozen fruit on top- and a bit of
non paleo greek yogurt!
Figured I would end my way overdue post with a song for the day, nothing to do with paleo but It's my go to song during a crazy week
