Only on the Paleo diet would you resort to such measures. Let me just share part of my day. Met 2FO for lunch- which entailed chicken, lettuce, grilled mushrooms & onions, guac. fresh jalapenos with a bottle of water. Well I ordered "double the meat" because I was hungry. After eating I of course was trying to calculate the blks which came to 6-1-4. Well I immediately started to panic that I didn't eat enough carbs. Which means I would pay for it later... so I was on a mission, I HAD to get some. So I decided to go get 2 cups of tomatoes from fresh market to round of my meal. (not the cherry ones, the little bigger ones) Well as I am in Fresh Market I bump into Chan. I stop to say hello and check out her cart. (all Paleo!) Then she showed me the coolest thing... I had no idea you could throw some almonds in this machine and then it would spit out almond butter. Pretty cool. I told her I was going to watch her while she made it. ( Neither one of us had ever used the machine before) As we waited for it to come out, we chatted on how we were both holding up, yada yada. I kept waiting, but it was taking forever for it to fill up so I told her it was good to bump in to her and good luck! Now this is where I felt a little weird.... I had to get my tomatoes eaten but I wasn't going home. I had errands before picking up kids at school. So, I just used the water in my bottle to wash my tomatoes. I was really hoping no one would see me. I would open my car door, wash two really quick, close my door, then eat 'em and then do two more. I felt like I was doing something bad like "getting a quick fix" or something.
Anyway, a little later 2FO called to see if I was still at FM because she went to grab something. I told her about seeing Chan and the cool machine that makes almond butter. So she decided to check it out. When I saw her later at parent pickup she said there was a sign on it - Out of Service. So if you go to Fresh Market for fresh almond butter blame it on Chan! :o)
