Paleo Triple Citrus Ceviche

So my last post was basically an ode to fall. Let’s do a little 180. I go about 50/50 on if I like shrimp. It is so weird. Sometimes I love it. Other times I can’t stand the texture.

S-s-summertime, summertime sadness. While I am sad summer is technically over, fall brings the best food of any season. One of my all time favorite holidays is Thanksgiving. Yes thanksgiving is still a ways off, but it doesn’t mean you can’t start celebrating early.

Paleo Authentic Creamed Spinach

When I was younger, you couldn’t pay me to eat spinach. I didn’t like the taste at all. Cooked spinach was the absolute worst, but somewhere along the line something changed. Spinach isn’t the only vegetable I now love that used to hate.

Paleo Salted Caramel Dip

So now that fall is days away, can I start wearing sweaters and boots? No. I live in Los Angeles where there is no fall or winter. I loved this the first year I moved here, but it has faded with time. I miss fall.

Paleo Mexican Chilaquiles

So I have a strained eye. Want to know how I got it? Evidently staring at your computer screen for four hours straight in bad lighting isn’t so good for your eyes. I really hope the Phillip Lim bag from Target is worth it!

Paleo Apple Pie Cheesecake Tartlets

This past weekend, I had a crazy movie binge. I went to my local Redbox and seriously stocked up. I watched Now You See Me, 42, Mud and rewatched Thor. I love Chris Hemsworth. Those eyes. Do you ever have weekends where you feel like doing nothing?

Paleo Roasted Artichokes on Zucchini Noodles with Lemon Garlic Sauce

Keeping on the straight and narrow isn’t always so easy. I went hard core Paleo for the first seven months then something happened and little cheats started creeping back into my diet. Soon I had fallen completely off the wagon.

Paleo Bacon Walnut Brussels Sprouts

I spent the weekend relaxing. By relaxing, I mean staying up until 1:30AM Saturday night to shop Phillip Lim for Target. With bleary eyes from staring at my computer screen for almost four hours in nervous anticipation, I snatched up the bag I’d been eyeing! Totally worth it! Next to cooking, I love fashion and shopping.

Paleo Spicy Orange Shrimp

Since eating spoonfuls of hot sauce is frowned upon and kind of gross, I knew I wanted to make a recipe for my homemade chili garlic sauce. Ok well maybe I wanted to make the recipe first then made the chili garlic sauce.

Paleo Chili Garlic Sauce

I love condiments. Ok that is not completely true. Let me revise. I love hot sauce! All hot sauces: tapatio, tobasco, cholula, sriracha, franks and of course chili garlic sauce.

Even though this was technically a “short” week, it dragged by. I went downtown to get lunch with my friend. After I attempted to see some of my favorite locations from the movie 500 Days of Summer, only to find out the infamous park bench was closed! How does a park that small close?! I’m so upset.

Paleo Mocha Chip Pancakes with Espresso Syrup

I go in waves of being a morning person. Sometimes I will pop out of bed at 7-7:30 bright eyed and ready for the day. Then there are days when I can barely crawl out of bed by 9AM. To get by I rely on coffee. I’m a coffee addict. Maybe coffee isn’t the best solution, but I usually keep it to one cup a day.
