Look Ma, We’re On TV!

Posted by Stacy on May 6, 2013 in 2013, Featured | 8 comments

In the midst of everything else we had going on the last few weeks, we got a request from a local news team for an interview about our family’s experience with Paleo. Of course, we were thrilled to help spread our positive thoughts on how real food can affect a family! It’s our hope that other families watching their morning news would be inspired to give paleo a try if it means not just losing weight, but drastically improving health too. So we (nervously) invited a news crew with bright lights and a big camera into our home for a few hours to hang out and watch us prepare a...

What Are We Up To?

Posted by Matthew on Apr 17, 2013 in 2013 | 2 comments

We looked around our own blog recently and realized that we were not writing for it ourselves very often. One of the promises we made to ourselves and to our readers was that we would always be involved in it and be the main contributors. It is unfortunate that writing Beyond Bacon has taken away from our blogging time. But, until we send the book off to print and get back to writing here a whole lot more, why don’t we show you what we’ve been up to? 1. Guest Hosting! Stacy and Sarah, our Paleo View team, took over the Livin’ La Vida Low Carb show this week to share some...

Our Great Wolf Lodge Vacation

Posted by Stacy on Nov 8, 2012 in 2012 | 9 comments

So I mentioned in the Apple Pie Balls post that we made those snacks for an upcoming vacation. I guess I shouldn’t tease such things, because it causes you all to wonder about what it is we’re doing, how we liked it and how we stayed paleo on the road. I’ll admit to being completely lazy about pictures and blog posts lately if you all will be happy with some adorable kid photos as my penance? The only family member I could get to pose for the ubiquitous “family” shot in the lobby was Cole. This is where we spent 3 days. The result, exhausted kids who slept...

Halloween’s Gone Paleo: Our Healthy Party Recap

Posted by Stacy on Oct 29, 2012 in 2012, Featured | 14 comments

This weekend with our good friends Bill & Hayley from The Food Lovers’ Primal Palate was beyond fantastic. It’s late Sunday night and the only reason I am able to find the energy to blog is because we could potentially lose power for a week, due to Hurricane Sandy moving in any hour. We threw our Healthy Halloween Costumed Candy-Free party on Saturday, which took all of Friday and Saturday to prepare for. Then Sunday we helped Bill & Hayley with their Halloween shoot for their upcoming entertaining book, Gather, the Art of Paleo Entertaining. We LOVE to entertain, and...
