Oh hello there. You’ve found some very old content. Please read the disclaimer on this page before thinking I’m still a total sheep who has been sucked into a bone-broth worshipping fad diet. Been there, learned from that and am now a much less rigid human.
It’s been since this post that I’ve done a GAPS update and I figured it was time for another one.
I’m half on full-GAPS, half stuck between stage 5/6.
GAPS Status: It’s complicated.
Do you ever set out to make a basic recipe, only to be overwhelmed by an intuitive plea to modify the recipe to such an extent that you manifest an entirely original product?
I was just going to do a basic date, cashew and cacao wafer bliss ball recipe, but then I saw all the other ingredients in the pantry and completely changed my mind.
Last night I had the pleasure of cooking dinner for my mum and stepdad. Usually I cook GAPS food for myself and mum cooks what she calls ‘regular food’ for everyone else dining at our place that night. I miss cooking some of my old favourites, such as a simple chicken curry with steamed Jasmine rice. I always jump at the chance to cook a meal for the rest of the family.
Have you ever made a mistake and immediately launched yourself straight into a place of regret, shame and embarrassment?
Yeah? Well that makes two of us!
You’d think after having 19 and a bit years on this planet, I’d have accepted that to learn, I have to make mistakes. But no. For some strange, illogical and irrational reason, the mistakes I make almost always follow with guilt and that ‘I should’ve known better’ attitude.
Natural selfies are the best kind of selfies
You may be expecting that today’s post is where I’ll be getting up on my little soap box and banging on about animal cruelty and make-up testing or perhaps about the many chemicals that we voluntarily lather upon our bodies, especially our faces, each day. However, whilst these are very relevant factors, today I’m discussing the cost of make-up from another angle. YOU and your self esteem.
Katie is a friend of mine who made gradual, yet radical changes to her diet and lifestyle and reaped countless benefits for doing so.
Experiencing the changes herself has driven her to educate her community on how to live happier, healthier and more vibrantly – one baby step at a time.
Meet Katie …
You know when you hardly know someone, yet get the vibe that they are a ‘good egg’? That’s Megan. We met at the 2015 Wellness Summit and even though we only spoke a few brief times, I was overwhelmed by Megan’s genuine warmth and humble glow.
Are you a passionate person?
Howdy friend. You’ve stumbled across an old article. I believe in real food and support anyone – celebrity or otherwise – in their advocacy of nutritional medicine. This doesn’t mean that I support all of the views they express on their own platforms.
My friend Kim recently brought up something that I’ve been thinking about for a while now. Chef Pete Evans is under constant scrutiny from the media. Labelled as ‘arrogant’, ‘extreme’, ‘un-educated’ and some go as far as to say, ‘dangerous’.
