Quick Toronto Trip Notes

Yonge street is the worst place to get food in the city, which is ironic, considering half the storefronts are lined with restaurants. Restaurant reviews from Canadia coming soon, I promise!


Hello from the land of omnomnivores!

Hi everybody! Sorry for the lack updates this week. I’ve been wrapped up with the usual ongoings of life, and haven’t had a moment to write up anything. Jen and I will be back in action next Monday, so check back with us then. Hope you’re keeping cool this week as we’re being blasted with [...]


Technical Difficulties

Sorry for the lack of posts this week. My computer had some issues that were finally resolved late last night, but it’s been keeping me away from writing and posting photos. We’ll be back to normal and posting by Friday. Hope you all are having a good week!


Hi folks! I’m taking a little breather from blogging this week, but Jen and I will be back next week with more recipes, reviews, and stories of omnomnomnomnom. Stay out of trouble, and we’ll see you then!

Paleo-A-Go-Go

Most of us in the professional world are constantly on the go, so it’s reasonable that having the luxury of making a Paleo or Zone meal on the spot isn’t necessarily the most reasonable thing in life.  So what if you’re trying to start up on Paleo, and don’t even know where to begin?  The [...]


Happy Holidays!

Jen and I are taking a few days off to escape the remnants of the great Snowpocalypse of 2009 here in DC (see also: your average Michigan winter day) to visit a secret destination devoid of snow and filled with palm trees.  We’ll be back in the middle of next week with more stories and [...]
