About Me

Oh Hi :)

Oh Hi!   I’m Erin.

I’m a 20-something entrepreneur and small business owner with a passion for food, fitness, and fashion.

I live my life Primally, meaning that 90+% of the time I avoid grains, gluten, and sugar.

What do I eat then?  Fat.  Lotsa fat.  And meat.  And vegetables.  Bacon makes my heart smile.

I’m an aspiring yogi and practice Budokon, a combination of Martial Arts, Meditation, and Ashtanga Yoga, on a near daily basis.

A new development in my life is the addition of a Leangains protocol concerning my fasting, feasting, and fitness.  You can read more about these developments here.

I LOVE to bake…which basically contradicts my Primal Lifestyle….but I’m a proud member of the Daring Bakers, where I either indulge in a little 80/20 rule or I try and remove the grains and sugar from my desserts as well as I can :) !

Want to know more about me?  Uh…are you sure?  If so, keep on readin’!

I went to the University of Virginia and graduated in 2009 with a double major in Neuroscience and Cognitive Science and a minor in Studio Arts.

 

My Neuro Class

I’ve always loved crafting and designing/making my own clothes.  Urmm like this flouncy chiffon number seen here .

 

Gratuitous Self Photos? Check.

I’ve studied animal behavior for a good majority of my life and have worked with many intelligent creatures, including birds, horses, dogs, dolphins, and primates.  Dolphins hold a very special place in my heart.  My passion in life is to educate people about the protection of wild dolphins.

 

Little Tanner - a Hallmark Moment

Oh.  And this is Finnegan, my partner in crime.  Also known as “Nani”.  He is an absolute terror, and I love him immensely.  There ain’t no love like a Wheaten’s love.

Alright so I guess that’s me.  And my dog.  I’m signing off.  Glad to have you on board, people :) .

    Love your Blog! Following a similar plan, Paleo-Leangains, and still experimenting with my macros.

    Keep up the good work!

    Nick,

    That is so awesome – you’ll definitely have to let me know how you’re doing!

    Yea, the macros are definitely the toughest thing for me to nail down. I’m glad I have the prior experience in trying to plan this stuff out. I’m hoping that it will become clear after a while.

    Best of luck to you as well :)
