Well Fed and Leg Day

I wanted to make a pitch for a great book that I recently purchased. It is called Well Fed: Paleo Recipes for People that Love to Eat. I am not 100% paleo by any stretch of the imagination, but these recipes are very easy, there are step-by-step instructions and are very tasty. Last night we had the Ginger-Lime Shrimp and it was fantastic. The best part of the book in my opinion is the idea of prepping what you can ahead of time so that when you are busy and in a rush for dinner you can still make something delicious and healthy.

Today's quote is from Dave Barry:

"Eating rice cakes is like chewing on a foam coffee cup, only less filling."
