Four Fun Things I've been up toThis past week I've been keeping myself busy with the following activities. 

1) I've started back to my weekly, now twice weekly Boot Camp, except now it's a social distancing type of camp. It's great to be getting together and exercising with friends outdoor. We are using our own parking spots as 6 ft markers. 

2) I made Psylly Turtles this weekend. OMG, they are amazing. My daughter likes them with mini chocolate chips, by Enjoy Life. I like them with cacao nibs. These turtles are a slightly sweet treat, with side benefits. LOL right. Check out the benefits of psyllium husks:

• psyllium husks are food for your gut bacteria. Yes, even your gut needs to be feed. 
• these magic husks can heal your poop problems, such as change the runny to firm and firm to softer. YAY
• helps clear LDL cholesterol from your bloodstream making your liver and heart happier. <3 :)
• improves insulin sensitivity and blood sugar. 
• here check out what else these beautiful husks can do. Note the recipe is towards the bottom of page. 

3) I made more sourdough bread. This time I made mini loaves to share with more friends. It's so much fun sharing the baking love.

Over the past week we have seen a response to George Floyd's killing as elsewhere in the United States and across the world. After the protest, then riots and destruction. Comes the beauty of rebirth. The artwork on the boarded up windows shows the path we, society, needs to take, because BLACK LIVES MATTER!! Their life is at stake everyday just doing normal day to day activities. Whereas white lives don't have that same fear. I hope you too will take steps to learn what racism is, to unlearn the little things whites do, consider donating to black charities. This is one way to help change the world and read books on white privilege and the black experience.
We can't continue to ignore what is happening to a large portion of our population, the African-American population. 

The last 2 months have left me feeling like I've lost a chunk of my life. However there have been good things that have happened as a result of the lock down. 

1) I am now baking bread weekly. That is HUGE for me. That is one baking experience that has not been successful for me. This week I even made Sourdough Pancakes, gluten free, dairy free but not vegan. Maybe next time. They were the most fluffy pancakes we've had since going gluten free. I love being able to use the sourdough discards in this way. ​

2) I am now running again, 2 times a week. This excites me greatly, because I broke my foot in January and was unable to run for  3 months. I am a bit tired and sore, but I'm much happier getting in regular exercise. 

3) Starting June 17th the Greensboro Farmers Curb Market is starting a program for prepared food and craft vendors to pick up pre-orders on Wednesday mornings. Please message me if you are interested in picking of orders from PaleoLove on Wednesday mornings. 

4) I will continue to offer my online store and offer products on Gate City Harvest online store for the time being. 

5) At this time I still have Momma Bear Shots available. I am considering repackaging them in returnable, reuseable. recyclable containers. I would like your feedback on the Momma Bear Shots if you are still using them and the new packaging is something you would prefer or not prefer and why. 

6) Since graduating from the Functional Nutrition Alliance as an educator/coach. I am starting a Facebook Group called Rethinking Food. Click here to join. or check it out. ​
