Laurel of Leaves with Lori Winter

I have no idea where the name Shaboo Shaboo came from. A good friend shared this recipe with me years ago and even she doesn’t know who came up with the moniker. All I know is this is one of my and my husband’s absolute favorite go-to meals.

If I had to pick my #1, can’t-live-without-it natural product, coconut oil would absolutely top the list (or at least tie with honey and apple cider vinegar)! I use coconut oil every single day. Without fail.  And it’s one of the best things you can possibly put in or on your body! Score!

Don’t Believe the Lies

I should go ahead and preface this post with a disclaimer. I could wait until the end to make this point, but inevitably someone would breeze right past it to the comments section and leave me a scathing reply about the value of organic food and how could I possibly ignore the benefits of said produce. So here it is:

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – you can’t exercise your way out of a bad diet. But you also can’t sit on the couch and expect a change in diet to truly change your body. I’ve not really ever struggled with my weight, so exercise hasn’t always been at the top of my priority list. Plus, exercise was boring. And hard. And sweaty.
