Happy Sunday! Hope you are having an amazing weekend. Yesterday's class was such a good chance to dust off the cobwebs of shooting/training. It was so fun to see people get outside their comfort zone and try something new. I am so proud of the people in this group that attended with me. I saw each of them grow and learn throughout the class!
Pushing yourself to try something new can be so scary. Having group support can make that so much easier. Even something like Carnivore and/or fasting can be scary when you haven't tried it before and are feeling uncertain of where to begin.
What is something you have done recently that pushed you outside your comfort zone? If the answer to that is nothing...think about what it is that's holding you back. It can be food related or even just trying a new hobby. What is one way you can push yourself outside your comfort zone this upcoming week?
*There will be no Live this week sorry! I am flying to Texas tonight and will be traveling all the way through Friday night. I will definitely do one next week when I get back! I'll be posting early access to my upcoming YouTube video for supporters later today.
I don't typically love cooking with cast iron, despite the excellent results they can bring. It's messy and smells up the house. Add to that, the one we have is super old and not very good. We were recently gifted a really good one from Lancaster Cast Iron so today I decided to give it a try. We have a side burner on our Weber so I could do it outside. I sous vide a steak, then seared it in tallow on the new pan. Man it was incredible. What a difference it made from our old one. Super easy clean up too. Below is the pan, of course I forgot to take a picture of the steak haha.
Do you love using cast iron? What are some favorites you make in them?
Yesterday we surprised the kids and brought home a puppy!! They have been begging for one for years and we felt like the time was right to bring one home.
Meet Angus 🐕 He's a Golden Retriever/King Charles Cavalier Spaniel mix. He's 11 weeks old and currently weighs about 8 pounds, he should be around 35 pounds fully grown. I know it will be an adjustment for a while as he gets potty trained etc but we are so excited. 😂 Wish us luck! 🤪
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Happy Halloween! Hope you are having some fun today. Passing out treats to anyone? The first picture is the costumes my kids have for this year. (Penelope's was just to help at Jiu-Jitsu).
Here are some my favorite costumes my kids have had over the years. Share below any costumes you have had from this year or previous years.
