In front of me tulips reach out of a mason jar. Their bright red buds awakening.. their life springing forth even in light of their ending. All that joy and celebration in the very same moment as their transition back to the earth. I feel their contentment. I feel their celebration. They are making use […]
When the road begins at a journey’s end..
Many times in life we are given the opportunity to begin again. Sometimes in the midst of deep pain and sorrow, other times as a chapter closes. I feel that my life’s journey has had many new beginnings. Some a struggle and some full of joy and surprise. Both have forged the trail to who […]
Status Update
So it has officially been 3 months since I went Paleo and 1 1/2 months since I have gone AIP. With the exception of coffee for the first two weeks, it has been almost a full 30 days of strict AIP. I don’t know if I am ready for reintroductions yet. My scalp is still […]
Entering the New Year Feeling Hopeful and my Energy Bites
The holidays are finally at a close and the new year has started. I began my Autoimmune journey back in November and have made it 6 weeks. In all honesty I really haven’t found it to be that great of a challenge, but it has taken effort. After the past three years of modified diets […]
Week 3: Success With Recipes and the Orange Greencicle
Rounding up on week 3 of the Autoimmune Paleo Protocol here! I am curled up in bed eating 2 slices of uncured bacon (the boyfriend shakes his head, “Bacon in bed?”), who could complain!! Grateful that I have always enjoyed if not loved to cook, and that I have essentially lived on a restricted diet […]

It is not easy to make changes, and it takes determination to be sure those changes really happen. I couldn’t imagine following the autoimmune […]
Macaroon Recipe Review and My Quick Hot Carob
Let’s be honest for a minute. I love dessert. Growing up as a kid my mother was always baking pies and cookies, cakes and pastries. Even to this day when friends or family are around there is a dessert buffet. She makes everything from scratch and whips it up in such a hurry that you […]
Not So Matzoh Soup and My Weekly Groceries
Cool weather has finally come. Not so sure how long it will last, we usually have a few warm spells before it really manifests itself. It’s soup weather for the time being and what a great way to stretch your money and get your bone broth in at the same time. I personally haven’t gotten […]
Conception
And so it begins. The blog. I have wanted to do this for a while, but it got put on the back burner. I filled my time with other things, the pot boiled over and so it starts now. I was diagnosed with Psoriasis 3 years ago. It is mostly on my scalp, but can move […]
