When I first decided to give Paleo a try, I made it a national declaration in our home….I called the family together, stood tall and boasted we were all going Paleo. Gave them the details and told them this was how we were going to eat from now on…Hmm not the greatest approach when I look back now.
I am usually a much easier going person with life’s changes. I usually laugh at everything. In fact, I confess, I can’t even get mad at my kids with out laughing. Nothing in life to me is ever that serious. Unless it’s serious….if you follow that one!?
*Note from Sarah: Here’s another post by Jason Seib, offering some insight on what we have been up to over at Everyday Paleo Lifestyle and Fitness.
How can we possibly teach proper form at EPLifeFit? That question has come up enough times that I thought it was finally time to show you. With the help of an anonymous member, I am going to walk you through the process of learning proper squats.
We, The Fragoso Family, live a paleo lifestyle; therefore avoiding grains, dairy, legumes, and sugars. We also happen to live in an extremely non-paleo world. However, as a family we have overcome some serious and some minor health issues; all thanks to cutting out large portions of the food pyramid from our diets. Yes, the food pyramid, that thing that hangs in all of the classrooms across our great nation.
As a family; our lives are obviously and vastly different than our neighbors, friends, teachers, and family members. And yet, everyday we stay strong, healthy, active, and vibrant in a world that is waiting at every corner with food that used to makes us sick, weak, and trapped in our lives. Our lives that we considered to be “normal.”
Yes, it’s a big name but way easier than it sounds and holy cow; so darn delicious I’m making this dish twice in one week!!! I made this for lunch yesterday and although I haven’t yet tried the following option; I’m confident that the Salsa and the Cilantro Sauce would also be just as good over other seafood options besides halibut or served on top of chicken!
Simply amazing stuff, really, I can’t say enough or get enough (although I do try to limit my coffee to a cup or two in the morning.) There’s not a whole lot more to say about this coffee except for that you have to try it yourself to believe it. Owner of One Drop Coffee, will fill you in below as to how his coffee happens to be leaps and bounds ahead of any other coffee you have most likely tasted.
You care about what you eat, and we care about what you drink!
Our coffee is hand roasted in small batches to order with YOU in mind. Mass produced coffee is roasted in huge batches and can take over a month before it gets into your cup. One Drop will ship your coffee within 12 hours of roasting in ensure that you are always drinking the freshest and most delicious coffee.
Our coffee is so good, you may find that you are no longer tempted to turn your coffee into a “cheat” in your paleo lifestyle because it can be enjoyed black. You can also drink coffee responsibly, knowing that you are drinking organic and fair trade trade coffee. Also, a portion of our profits will be donated to help keep oceans and rivers clean.
Let us be part of your day, everyday!

A Bicep….
I found one; I have one!!! Actually two, I have two biceps.
I am not talking about the photo I saw from Google images of the human anatomy.
Noooo, I have an actually bicep. It comes out and plays, and it magically forms itself when I lift my arm.
Unlike the Easter crème egg fiasco, I was pleased and excitingly surprised to see this unexpected thing pop up one day.
Many moons ago, pre-children. I was an avid runner, cheerleader and competitive gymnast for my high school. So I knew the competitive drive was in me. I knew the younger version of me had drive, kick and compassion for fitness. But “younger” is the key word.
