Its just so hard for me to sit down and write.... :S
So to pay for my debt...I am finally giving all of you a recipe that you have been long waiting for and that is....
my Fudgy Decadent Paleo Sweet Potato Brownie Recipe!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Woot Woot! I know a lot of you have been waiting for this recipe for months now.. well today is the day it has finally come; Enjoy!!! I hope this makes up for my absence ;P
I have just been extremely busy since I've come down from WA. I was on Orcas Island with my friend for about 2 weeks before I decided that I should come back down to So. Cali. I made this decision based on some factors: 1- is my health is not completely in order yet, 2- the transition of moving out would be easier with the help of family, 3- I want to go surfing this Summer ;P.
So at the moment I am living with my brother, sister-in-law, and niece in a small apartment I feel bad for staying this long but I really did my best when it came to trying to find a job as fast as possible.
I finally got a job which in my opinion is a great steady job that has many opportunities! I will be working at Sprouts as a Supplement Specialist! Not only am I getting paid more than when I working with the Chiropractors...I will also have the opportunity to help more people in the community and if they have a more chronic health problem I could help them outside of sprouts through my Nutrition consulting! Win win!
I start tomorrow at Sprouts so I thought I had to write a post before I start work :P
Now I'm gonna spruce up on my Advance Nutrition while also trying to find a place...one thing at a time... at least I've got a job now! :D
without further adieu here is my....
