And I’ll be there What’s MovNat, you ask? Well if you don’t know about it and its founder, Erwan Le Corre, where have you been? This is where I fist introduced you to him, nearly a year and a half ago, now. You’ll want to read that post, but here’s a quote from Erwan highlighting……...

Blog Sucks, So Here’s Lucinda Willams
Ha! Well continuing on the theme for now (it’s not going to suck for long, and I only judge by my own standards — but thanks to those who’ve contradicted me). Moving on, here’s what I’m listening to as I’m cooking, right now — ahi grade beef filets for Bea & I, sous vide, rare, later……...

Bench Gains, Finally
Yea, I know. Blog kinda sucks right now. I’m so demotivated; in fact, so much so that I’m writing this from my phone. Life waxes, and it wanes. Embrace, I guess. I’m no more imune to a creative funk than the next guy or gal. But I do have news. After six weeks of trying……...

Progress marches on…Slowly
Feedback on my workouts has been so good and helpful that I’m going to take advantage of it. I have already incorporated a number of changes and improvements from comments to my last workout post, so why not just keep it going? While my benefit is clear, it just might motivate some of the others……...

Sunday Music Selections: Nouvelle Vague
A while back I was in the car and heard an NPR interview of one of the co-founders of the French band, Nouvelle Vague. Here’s the band’s website. What are they all about? Led by producer/arrangers Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux and sung by a revolving cast of chanteuses, the group’s first two albums, Nouvelle……...

Rack of Lamb, Seared Ahi, and Veal Marrow

My friend Robert roasted some veal marrow and Julie did a wonderful cheese plate that I unfortunately didn’t get a picture of. Beatrice……...

Lime and Cumin Crusted Mahi Mahi
Alright Paleo’s, shield your eyes ’cause this one has got — gasp! — white rice. Well, sometimes a fish dish just seems to call out for rice. And since it has been probably at least two months since I fired up the cooker I figured it’d be OK. If you’re going to do rice for……...

So Many Meatza Varieties
And here’s another one, canadian bacon & mushrooms. Lots of mushrooms. First, I chopped a few crimini very finely and added them to the sauce. Then, I chopped up a few more very finely and mixed them in with the mozzarella and then for a final bit of mushroom madness, added slices on top. Ready……...

Workout Report: Wall to Wall and Top to Bottom Gains
Long time readers know that I don’t often post stuff about workouts. For one, the workouts have always been a means to promote some good gene expression, keep lean muscle while losing fat, and so on. It was never really about being in competition with myself or a training log. But for now that has……...

Kick Starting Weight Loss: Protein, Low-Carb, Intermittent Fasting

Russell Crowe: Back in Shape
I went to see Russell Crowe’s new film Robin Hood yesterday. Reasonably enjoyable film, a sort of prequel where the story is about all that took place leading up to his "outlaw" status, so stand by for the sequel. At any rate, some weeks ago when I first learned of the film by seeing the……...

Links, Quick Hits and Friday Bullshit
One of the ways my wife and I deal with each other — other than the middle finger raised vertically — a particular favorite of ours — is when one says something the other finds amusing, dumb, banal..whatever, is… "You’re Bullshit!" "No, YOU’RE Bullshit!" …And so on. Well, today I’m bullshit because I not only……...

Carnitas with Sweet Potato and Cinnamon Apples
I haven’t done pork carnitas in a while and not since way back — when I was doing crappy food pictures — have I done them with fruit. Back then I used persimmons and cinnamon. This time it was with apple, simply sautéed in butter and cinnamon. I included some sweet potato on the side……...

Is Eating Crow Paleo?
Back last September I got all riled up over "All The Stupid Stuff in My Face from the Grant Whores." The main impetus for the post at the time was the many ridiculous articles in the media claiming that saturated fat is making us fat by stimulating appetite in the brain. While the new articles……...

Friday Update, no Bullshit
I’m going to have to renege on my Friday Bullshit! for now. Too much going on, there was a doggie crisis the last couple of days (better now) and I’m working more and more on “the book” and might even have some interesting news along those lines shortly. I’ll do the BS pieces, but probably……...

Big Salad
Something has come up requiring my attention this morning so the post I have planned featuring a research doc who contacted me about something I wrote in a post last September will have to wait for later.
