Paleo News Segment Featuring Yours Truly

Yesterday, I talked with Channel 33 news about the Paleo 30 Day Challenge. I was worried I would go blank during the interview or I might say, ummm, likeeee, you know..I'm a videographer and editor and that is my biggest pet peeve. A little umms are okay, but I've edited some rough stuff before. Ummm, you know.

First they interviewed Lee and Isis. It's funny because the first time I saw them was last year on the CW news. (Here is the blog post from that). Now here we are, kind of full circle. Since that story aired a year ago, I've ran with them numerous times. They are seriously a cool couple, I'm so glad to call them friends.

HERE IS THE NEWS CLIP! 
 
The reporter and cameraman were at my house for about 30 minutes. They walked in and were like, wow - you have a nice house/kitchen. My kitchen is amazing, I know. I love it. It's the main area that convinced me I wanted to live there. The Building of Our Home

The Building of Our Home
After the interview, they asked if I could make something in the kitchen. I threw together my lunch for the following day. That was fun! I felt like I was on a cooking show. Note to self: If this video stuff doesn't work out, fall back on my food/hosting skills. Joking. Maybe. Hey did you see my Rachel Ray moment, when I walked away from the fridge with an army load of food? See I might have a future in TV/Food/Hosting, after all. 

During the interview, I mentioned one of the main challenges, for me is I "have to" shop at three different stores to complete my weekly paleo grocery list. It can be a pain, but this is honestly how I'm able to save myself money.

Paleo Shopping Hotspots
1. My Local Grocery Store
This is where I buy my family's favorite, staple items. Cereals, breads, can goods, some meat, sweets, etc. Just because I'm doing paleo doesn't mean my family is too.
2. Sam's Club
Can you say bulk? I like to get nuts and produce there. Mountains of produce.
3. Central Market or Sprouts
This is where I can find quality meats, herbal tea, Chey's organic milk (which is so cheap - 3 half gallons for 6 dollars), specialty items like almond meal, chia seeds, some raw nuts, and some produce.
