Thin Mints

Yesterday began my venture into the three months of eating only Paleo.  And my dear, sweet husband has agreed to play along at least for a month.  (He claims he only agreed to two weeks, but I heard him say a month, so a month it is!)  I've seen a lot of discrepancies between different Paleo diets, so here are the guidelines we are following:

• No grains of any kind (that includes corn [a cereal grain] and rice)
• No beans or legumes (including peanuts and soy)
• No dairy (waaaaaaaaah!!!)
• No processed sugar
• No chemicals added to "food"

So I can eat:

• Meat
• Fruit
• Vegetables
• Seeds and Nuts (which includes Quinoa)
• Maple Syrup and Honey

And my husband and I have agreed on a compromising:

• Wine
• Tea

We've got a meal plan for the first week (which I'll post later in case you're interested.  But as a farewell to our favorite foods, here's a picture of our Thin Mint milkshakes:

So minty and so chocolatey...

Goodbye, my minty, chocolatey loves!
