Release the beast: Eat Like a Dinosaur is officially released!

Posted by Stacy on Mar 20, 2012 in 2012, Featured | 18 comments

Today is March 20th! Do you know what that means? It means it’s time to Eat Like a Dinosaur! Our book is released today, so run out to your local bookstore and pick up a copy! Or buy a copy from BarnesandNoble.com or Amazon.com And buy it NOW for your e-book, iPhone, iPad, Kindle, Android or Blackberry! Can I recommend you buy both versions? I’ve been told that kids kidnap the softcover paper book! I’ve seen more than a few fan photos with kids reading the story book in bed. And with it on the kitchen counter. With an e-book, you won’t have...

Eat Like a Dinosaur Week 2 Recap

Posted by Matthew on Mar 8, 2012 in 2012 | 5 comments

First off, a short note for those who are asking where your book is. We’ve been getting a lot of confusion from followers of ours when they see people already getting their copy of Eat Like a Dinosaur when their pre-order still says they’ll be getting it at the end of the month. Let me explain. When a book is a month or so out from publication, review copies get sent to many people to review as part of publicity for the publication. With our book, rather than sending hundreds of copies to mainstream publications that would never in a million years review a book that is so far...

Hearing that our message is ringing clear in...

Week Recap, ELaD Pre-Release Buzz and Apology

Posted by Matthew on Mar 3, 2012 in 2012 | 6 comments

Straight away, a word of warning about the upcoming month. I’ve heard how frustrating it is for blog followers when the blog they follow starts focusing on their book release. All of a sudden the blog you used to follow is no longer doing the same things they did to get you to follow them. Some people don’t want to participate in giveaways. Some of you probably don’t intend to buy or read our book, either because you’re not interested or you’re not able. This is okay and we understand! I’ll make a deal with you. This month we have a lot of book related...

Eat Like a Dinosaur has arrived!

Posted by Stacy on Feb 25, 2012 in 2012 | 20 comments

We were SO excited when Matt arrived home Friday afternoon to this at our front door! I rushed home from work, so that we could open the box and touch our first book for the first time ever! The boys were SO excited to see their names, pictures and recipes in the book! The concept was just too big for them to understand until they saw it in front of them. We had to share our day with friends and family, who came over to celebrate with us! There may have been a lot of wine enjoyed during the celebrating… If you’re excited too, stay tuned! Because we’re kicking off a...

Eat Like a Dinosaur: Video and More!

Posted by Stacy on Feb 13, 2012 in 2012, Featured | 2 comments

I’m too excited to make this a long post. In case you hadn’t heard me on repeat for the last few months, we’ve got a book coming out soon. We’ve got a section of our site dedicated to more info on it, but here’s the gist: it’s about eating real food, as a family; getting kids excited about cooking; spending time together and bringing joy to things that sometimes can make you feel different. But I’ve written enough about that. How about a video that explains it better? p.s. can we give a big round of applause to Matt for doing that himself? p.s.s. can...
