Practice what I preach :D

Well, you all know I've had some trouble staying paleo and clean and on plan during the weekends and when socializing, yeah?

Determined to break that bad habit!!

Friday night started with an awesome salad and soup for dinner (salad: romaine, beets, tomatoes, mushies... soup: squash base with broccoli, carrots, and ground turkey).


Then, instead of sleeping in and eating brunch with a bunch of people, I woke up at 4 AM, chugged some coffee and headed north for a hike!

Breakfast was chicken sausage with sweet potatoes and lunch was a salad with shredded chicken (amazing snack of chocolate on the mountain top, though, mm).

It was gorgeous! Hurricane Mountain in the Adirondacks, beautiful hike, slow incline stretched over the last mile for the final ascent, and amazing views:





Koda is as big as me!

Ending the day with a little school work, a little house work (Chris is prepping our sun room for a new floor!), dinner of bunless burgers with asparagus and rutabaga (GET THOSE VEGGIES IN YOU!!) and then some quiet time on the couch with a sleepy dog as we watch Game of Thrones reruns <3

Tomorrow starts with a grocery shop at my co-op for some nice produce, a little dog walking, and a visit with friends.

Life is hard and confusing, but also really beautiful all the time, if I remember to look in the right places.

Namaste.

  4. Hi Jeanette,

    Amen to that! I'm reminding myself daily to keep on looking for those things of beauty (my Mum used to call them 'blessings').
    Looks like it was a super weekend, all round.
