Keto Convenience Foods

If you read any of those “10 Reasons Keto is the Worst” articles out there, the common anti-keto argument you’ll see is that it’s too hard. The premise: keto must be unsustainable because eating meat, eggs, avocados, veggies, nuts, coconut, etc. is just too arduous long term. I’m sure you can guess how I feel about that. Nonetheless, when you switch from a SAD diet to Primal or Primal-keto it genuinely becomes harder to grab convenience foods. It’s not that you can’t . The selection of packaged foods being marketed to keto folks has exploded in the past year or so. Rather, your growing awareness of ingredient quality, coupled with a desire to control your food and nutrition, makes it feel harder… and probably less desirable.

Of course, as so many of you have learned, it’s possible to achieve tremendous gains to health, body compositio

My Writing Desk

This sweet little secretary desk once belonged to my grandparents, as did the chair that I had recovered back in 2009 . My mom says it’s over 100 years old, and it has followed me from house to house. (See it in my closet room here !) For a while it has housed things like extra jewelry and accessories. Today it stores my Beautycounter samples (who wants one!?) and some of my travel-related accessories and nail polish in the drawers. What I recently realized is that it makes an awesome DESK! Imagine that. Sometimes when my babysitter is here I escape away to concentrate on work but the downstairs office desk is too cold this time of year. Upstairs is always warm, and it’s super cozy up here too! Secretary desks are the perfect answer to the question “how do you have a nice looking desk in a room that is not an office.” Laptops make that so easy. Another thing that I’ve realized is that it’s actually really nice to have carpet when you have a baby. I never want to put Birch down o
