The long hiatus is over (or, Day 1... again)

Suprise, I've kept up with this blog as fastidiously and regularly as I have kept abreast of political zeitgeist of rural South-eastern China. In other words, I haven't.

But, this being a new year, I felt it was high time to start fresh with this blog and with my commitment to my paleo ways. Start of a new year demands that I start up another 30 days of cheat-free eating.

With this new start, I plan to use this space for its original purpose: record and plan what I'll be eating during the next 30-days. I plan to tweak the original concept, or the execution of the idea, of this blog by committing to keeping it updated with the next day's meals. By doing so, I hope to provide a resource to those who are interested when they are deciding what to eat.

Also, in an effort to mix things up and enjoy a rut-free dining experience, I'll be scouring available paleo books and websites for a Big Meal of the Week. I've created or accrued enough compliant meals to allow for general subsistence, which is fine when going through a normal flow of paleo life with cheat meals in play. However, monotony can quickly wear me down and open up cracks in my resolve to stick with the 30-day challenge. I hope the challenge of pulling off fixing a meal that is a little more involved will keep my interests piqued and momentum going.

Lastly, as I said earlier, this space will be updated daily. However, the usual entry will transform from my typically long winded prose to a more structured meal plan, with maybe a blurb about inspiration for the meal, citation of where I got the idea/recipe, or notes on preparation. This is not to say that I'll deprive you of your secret guilty pleasure of reading my ramblings. It is only to readjust expectations so as to ensure that I can keep everyone involved informed and prepared. Capice?
