Here we go, the first weekend of World Carnivore Month! Are you nervous or worried about temptations? What are your plans for the weekend and how are you ensuring you will stay on track?
Today we have the Healing Humanity event Meat-Up, hoping to see some familiar faces. 🥰 I will try and get some pictures to share later today!
Have a wonderful weekend!!
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 Tuesday! Yesterday was Chris and my 13th wedding anniversary, we forgot until mid-day when someone text us Happy Anniversary. 😂😂🤦🏼♀️ We don't do presents or do much to celebrate. The last couple of years we've been blessed to take a trip around our anniversary, this year we are going to take the kids on vacation with us but not for another couple weeks. I am very blessed in this journey to have Chris by my side. ❤️❤️❤️
Hope you have a great day!!
Good Evening Y'all!! It's Day 27 of no dairy except occasionally butter and no eggs. Day 17 of no coffee. I'm doing great still. Learning new things as I go. I ate some avocado tonight and I could taste the chemicals in it. So no more avocado for me. That has been about the only thing that isn't meat that I still eat. But not after tonight unless it's organic. Here's my stats. No pictures of my food today. Today has been rough. Please pray for some friends of ours. Our friend woke up this morning and found her husband deceased in the living room. He was 50 years old with 4 kids and 2 grands. BLESSINGS!!
Hey family!! Sorry I was just a fly-by last night during the Live. I really wanted to stay and join in the fun but it was off and on showering and we had equipment to get home and covered. Harvest will end eventually.
I'm in the middle of a 72 hour fast, hopefully. Really trying to dial in and buckle down my eating. I think things are shifting. My clothes are starting to feel not as snug.
As I told Karas, I will be giving up my HWC as soon as the carton is empty. I don't know if I can do no dairy, but cheese and sour cream will be condiments only.
And I will be trying to add in fishies several times a week again.
I'm feeling good, work is not bad and soon harvest will be over and I can be around more.
Hugs to you all.
