About Me

Hi! I’m Kayla! 

I am 28 years old and live in Tucson, Arizona with my fiancé Benjamin.

We met in the Summer of 2012 and got engaged just six months later and our wedding will be in April 2014. It is a short relationship but when you find the one, you just know! We have both been married before so it’s pretty exciting to finally have a real adult mature relationship. Yay us!

I have been living in Tucson since 2005 after growing up in Washington state. For 10 years I worked in the dental profession doing everything from dental assisting to managing a million dollar practice. But dentistry is now behind me and I have moved on to blogging and working as the Executive Assistant at Jade Star Acupuncture.

My goal with this blog is to share my experiences and recipes while living my life as a Paleo/Vegan. My inspiration comes from Mark Bittman‘s book Eat Vegan Before 6:00 to Lose Weight and Restore Your Health. Being paleo truly has it’s benefits and there are some amazing health success stories out there showing how great it can be. Benjamin loves meat and usually eats the majority of my meat based meals. But I honestly am not a huge fan of meat and I agree with the ethical views of vegans. Plus I have read so many personal reports about how being vegan gave people a new life that was full of energy and free of sickness. So this is my journey living life 80% Vegan and 20% Paleo.
