happy cinco de mayo! ;) 

it's a fun day for us down here in san diego... so i thought i'd share my friend Arsy's amazing skinny margarita recipe. she orders these all the time and she's gotten me into ordering them now too. 

they are so yummy and don't have the added/unnecessary sugars that most margies have! 

arsy's SGM

*good tequilla is a must (her fav is don julio)

tequilla on the rocks (with salt)

add fresh lime juice

soda water

splash of cointreau

give it a try next time you're out... the cointreau adds enough sweetness!

and if you haven't checked out arsy's blog,  30 days of paleo, yet... you must head over and check it out! so much great info!

have a great day! xo

30 days of paleo

have you heard of a paleo diet? I had never until one of my long time friends, arsy, told me about it.
it's very interesting and she just started a blog to help people focus on eating this way. i would attempt to explain more, but instead you should just head over to her site to read about it.
...and if you're up for the challenge, starting on September 19th she's going to walk you through a 30 day paleo diet.

i'm tempted to try it out for the 30 days... although i know it will be tough for me! but i'd love to see the results and how different it would make me feel. what do you think? would you be down to give it a try?
