Well after a pretty busy work week and a fun filled weekend I can come out saying I feel pretty good with how I have been eating.  My little man turned one this weekend so the family and I and 20 guests took to Boston Pizza for dinner on Saturday.  I had one glass of wine, not bad, and the Bacon Chicken Chipotle Salad no chips, forgot to say no cheese but with how much actually goes on I was ok with that.  So not too shabby, a treat but not off the wagon.  Later that night we headed to Goldy and Shawna's for the Ladies World staff party, where in the past, has gotten a bit out of control.  I had hmmmm  5 glasses of very nice wine and yes one cookie. HA HA you thought you got me but I brought the cookies and yes they were paleo.  These cookies are so good you have to make them, link attached.http://www.againstallgrain.com/2012/12/02/double-chocolate-pecan-cookies-paleo/
Ok so I did over indulge a wee bit in the wine department but with the gorgeous food spread that was laid out and the butter chicken on the stove, yes I said butter chicken, I am fairly proud of myself.  Normally these things would have all made their way onto a plate and into my mouth, especially after only having a salad for dinner and over indulging on the wine.  Made it home by 12am, I know lameO but I was ready and willing to wake up the next day too early but not hung over, which now seems to take 4 days to get over.  Funny thing, as the day went on I was craving the moose roast, sauerkraut, and liver pate in my fridge.  It goes to show if you feed the body good things it will learn to crave those things.
So I said I would post a picture of the cake that I made but lets say Paleo icing is going to need some altering.  I did use conventional icing but was fine with that too. I was not the masterpiece I was hoping for so no pic.
I am enjoying teaching others about my new way and hope one to be able to be so knowledgable that I could answer anything.  Practical Paleo is a great book, beautiful and well written and The Paleo Solution by Robb Wolf was a huge eye opener, just incase you are interested who my sources are.  On to another productive week.
