Beef - Why is my chuck roast dry?
Getting organized- a whole month’s worth of meals via crockpot freezer cooking. I have to admit, I am a little bit overwhelmed right now. May is normally a busy month for us (mother’s day plus Burke’s birthday, Keadryn’s birthday, Drew’s birthday, my brother’s birthday, & Adam’s mom’s birthday).

And planning for a month’s worth of COLORFUL (wink, wink) goodness for the blog while we’re away, and life feels, well, overwhelming. My sweet friend Alicia posted about getting organized last month and I was inspired to follow suit. First stop in my “Get Organized” agenda- figure out meals.

I think there’s too much moisture in the turnip. Similar to above, but cut the sweet potato into thin slices and omit the chili powder. Got the recipe from here: We used olive oil and substituted a mix of spices (thyme, sage, rosemary?) These were *amazing.* Would make them again in a heartbeat even if I stopped doing paleo tomorrow.
