Can you believe that it’s been 6 months since Joe and I moved to England?! I SERIOUSLY can’t believe it! It’s a strange feeling because when I think back it doesn’t really feel like we’ve been here for that long but I swear the days just fly by! I went back today and read over this post I wrote just before we left the States… Joe and I miss a lot of things from our life in America, I think after 2 years it was starting to feel like home there and then we decided to come here and now we are working on settling down here. I’m not sure it will be a permanent thing… us living here but for now this is where we have to be 🙂 Who knows what will happen in another year, if we’ll be on the move again or if we’ll decide to stick it out here. In any case I often feel like a modern day nomad… the suitcases that have travelled with us since 2011 from Australia are big reminders of that for me! Anyway you gotta do these things when you’re young right! 😉

Now onto more important things like FOOD hahaha! I thought it would be fun to share with you my top 5 favourite vegetables, I know when some people think of the “paleo diet” they think we all just sit there eating bacon and eggs, and well I’m not saying we don’t but we (well I hope we do) also eat a lot of veggies and fruit! I’ve read from a couple of other paleo bloggers that when they made the switch people would often ask them what they ate if they couldn’t eat bread or pasta… as if these are the only two foods on the planet! Paleo for me personally has opened the doors to a much wider variety of food and things that I may not have ever tried before. Now I enjoy picking up a different vegetable or even fruit when I’m out shopping and I have fun experimenting with different ways to cook/use these things. For e.g. I recently picked up a cassava/yuca, I’ve NEVER tasted one before let alone cooked it but I wanted to try something different so I picked it up.
