Wednesday Noms: Paleo Drinks!

Hey guys. A lot of people have asked me what us Paleos drink. Which struck me as a strange question… You see, Paleos enjoy mainly unprocessed food. Meat, veggies, and fruit/nuts too. No grains, or chemically processed food. As you can tell from my recipe posts, it’s not like we’re suffering, haha. It’s not restrictive at all, and I feel better than I ever have. Especially in summer, I see … Continue reading

The other thing is that most people have a fair idea of the flavours they like in the first place, and your nose will tell … Continue reading

Hey Strangekittens. Anyone that knows me, knows I’m a Giger fan. If I could, I’d have my entire home look like Giger’s works. Recently I saw Prometheus, and drooled the entire movie. My husband suggested this, so after a couple of tries, I had a go at it! Giger’s works are intricate and detailed, but as the fingernail is a very small canvas, I took some artistic liberty with it I went for the … Continue reading
