Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

When I was in elementary school I sold tubs of cookie dough. Yes, I was that kid slangin’ treats around the neighborhood. I was all about that cookie dough. My best friend, Jenn and I couldn’t wait until I could finally sell the stuff. It meant that we could sit around and eat the dough out of the giant plastic tub. Looking back on it, it was pretty gross. But cookie dough is really, really good. I especially love mixing a lil’ bit of this in some plain, unsweetened, full-fat, grass-fed yogurt. It’s soo good.

Avocado Margarita

Realistically, no matter how much I care about my health, by no means do I eat or drink 100% clean. And I don’t want to, because that would be boring. While I’ve come a long way with my health and eating habits, I still have a long way to go. And the in-between stuff, I just try to make healthier. Like booze. Truth be told: I drink. I am always surprised when I see bloggers around my age talk about how they don’t drink (like, at all). I mean, if you’re Mormon, I get it. Or if you have kids. That makes sense. But I have yet to find someone openly state that they drink. I do! And usually, I drink red wine because I like the way it tastes and it’s high in resveratol, an antioxidant. I buy organic and sulfite-free from my local organic grocer, and it’s awesome.…
