The Label Says Paleo

As a freelance writer, I spend a lot of time eating out — checking out new restaurants, schmoozing over lunches, and networking at happy hours. I’ve also been traveling more recently, so I’ve been having to eat out more as I’ve gotten more strict with my Paleo diet (I also strictly only eat free-range chicken [...]

This past weekend I had ever intention of making a how-to video of Veronica’s recipe for cooking a whole chicken. My friend Daniel was over at my apartment for 4.5 hours trying to fix my laptop with no luck. While I had plenty of time to clean my office, kitchen, and living room, I still [...]
