Granted, since they were spare ribs and not baby back, they were a little fattier than I would have liked.
But I think they came out pretty good. Im still hunting for a good paleo BBQ sauce recipe, but that will come with time.

My Paleo Ribs
I must say that these came out better than I expected for my first time making ribs.
Granted, since they were spare ribs and not baby back, they were a little fattier than I would have liked.
But I think they came out pretty good. Im still hunting for a good paleo BBQ sauce recipe, but that will come with time.
Pin It Now!

First Post of the New Year?
Because I can't remember if I posted already or not! HA!
so, currently on the horizon-
still trying to get my car title/tags/registration taken care of. Thanks to a very good friend, Im SLOWLY working through the process of getting this under control.
One step at a time!
Also, I will be posting a separate entry regarding some new makeup reviews. I will be reviewing Maybelline's "Falsies Flared" mascara and their Rewind under eye dark circle concealer.
Im happy to report that I have broken the 150 pound mark! Im down to 148 and holding steady! I'd still like to loose another 10-12 pounds by May. So Im trying to stay focused on that. I refuse to let it be "those stubborn last 10 pounds"!
Had my first check up since I had surgery back in August. The doctor seemed very surprised at how well I healed up. He said that had he not been the one to do the surgery, he wouldn't have known that anything had been done! I did not go into it with him that I have been taking Red Clover, Red Raspberry and Chasteberry to help things heal and ensure the health and lively hood of my organs!
It just goes to show you, that in some cases, these things do work!
And in my effort to bring prim and proper back, i am proud to report that I am wearing my new flannel bloomers under my skirt today at work. :) As well as my over the knee Cavalier boots. What a happy Piratess I am! I think I shall make myself some more! These were far too cheap to pass up on Etsy.
Oh! Speaking of Etsy- I am having a sale! Go to Gossamer Beams and use the coupon code LOVELOVELOVE between now and Valentine's Day and get 15% off your order!
MMMMM I think that's about it for now. Smooches! Pin It Now!

First post of the new year
Well, 2011 was certainly fun! LOL Im not going to do one of those "recap my past year" for you posts. Personally, I can't stand them. Its akin to receiving the "what My Family did this year" letters in your Christmas cards.
Nope. Can't stand them!
LOL
I also don't do resolutions. I just want to be a better all around person/health/caring/loving etc that I can be. I don't need to segregate out my plan, since every day is a new day and brings different challenges to that goal.
But, on a happy note: or random note: LOL take your pick!
I seem to have some health issues at the moment. I have this darn lingering cold that has been hanging around for 8 days now. I am feeling a wee bit better today. (Maybe because I got off the couch and put down the game controller and went to work). But that will go away with time.
The other issue at the moment, is that I have developed sciatica. Where the heck did that come from!? LOL Not only did I get a cold for Christmas, but I had a fever, and that developed into a rash (on and off) and now this. Im wondering if I pinched the nerve due to the way I sit on my desk chairs. I tend to sit on the edge of them with the edge of the chair aligned with the spot where my buttock meets my thigh. This is from years of being in an orchestra and having "good posture" for that and sitting on the edge of my seat so my back doesn't touch.
But dang! It hurts!
I also cannot wait to get back to dance class tomorrow night. I missed the last two weeks with last minute holiday shopping/prep and then getting sick. Hoping that the stretches and work we do there will help my sciatica.
Have completed one month on my new pill microgestin fe 1/20. Had some moodiness on it at first, but that seemed to level out. My TOM completely skipped during last week. Not even spotting. But, Ive read that this is very common with this pill. So Im not "worried" at all about it.
I will say however, that its seriously curbing my appetite. As in, I have little to none. I can eat just a few bites of food here and there and be perfectly happy, or not eat at all. (currently eating a wee bit as I felt queasy from the tea I was drinking. DARN YOU Lipton tea!!!!)
Funny, we just finished the holidays, and Im already slinking around looking at gifts for my Pirate for Valentine's day.
There's one that he's getting that I had ordered before Christmas, but due to the backlog from the maker, will not be here for another couple of weeks. So its going to become a V.day gift.
Also have my eye on some other things.
And as for gifts for myself, I must say... I have the best Boyfriend ever! LOL He knows me so well. He gifted me a (usb controlled) rocket launcher, missile turret and an xbox for Christmas!!! LOL He also got me some awesome cookie cutters in the shape of ninjas and skeletons (gingerdead men and ninjabread men) :)
He totally spoiled me. I do feel bad though, that he really can't play with his toys I got him until the weather gets warmer. But alas, he will have to wait.
I guess that's it for now. Pin It Now!
