Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies

July 09, 2018 by Monica Arrieta in Recipes

I don't know about you, but when I was a kid, my absolute favorite kind of cookie was of the chewy chocolate chip variety. There was something so comforting and luxurious about them. As I grew up, opened up my horizons a bit to cookies of all shapes and sizes.

I was experimenting in the kitchen the other day and stumbled across a recipe that I thought might be perfect as the base for some kind of pound cake.

A Full Day of Eating Keto: Father and Son Edition

July 04, 2018 by Scott Arrieta in Family, Grocery Hauls, What We Eat

I had been passively aware of the keto diet for years before I decided to take the plunge and try it for myself. Besides the cognitive dissonance of challenging literally everything I believed to be true about nutrition at the time, I found it a little overwhelming trying to figure out what was allowed and what was off limits on the keto diet. I knew that meat was generally ok, but I was skeptical of whether or not I would be ok with ditching the carb-loaded sides that I had grown accustomed to.
