Day of Firsts

This seemed to be a day full of firsts for me.  This blog for one is a first, sort of a spontaneous first.  Also, I bought a crockpot and a food processor yesterday and used them both today...pretty excited about it...yeah I'm a dork.  It was my first time cooking anything in a crockpot and I'm pretty satisfied with the results.  I studied for hours today to prepare for the carving of my first chicken...turns out it was all for nothing...the chicken carved itself.  It was so moist it pretty much just fell apart...who knew?

I followed the recipe from a Paleo book I just bought (Everyday Paleo).  From the same book, I also made a yummy mango coleslaw (that I chopped with my new spiffy food processor).  This was my first homemade Paleo dinner!  Voila...

 

Not too shabby if I say so myself!  Now I'm off to clean my messy kitchen, pack for this weekend, go to bed, and wake up at 5:15 (yes, A.M.) to do some Crossfit...you know I gotta love it if I'm willing to wake up that early!
