    Thanks Obama, Daycare cost is ridiculous.

    We currently pay $780 a month for 3 days a week. My wife will be working an additional day this fall and our cost will go up to $1040 a month. Though the rate goes down approximately $200 a month once he hits 3. This is in northern Michigan at a daycare/preschool that has a mile long wait...

    Why live in Michigan?

    +1 I live and work in Traverse City. Very touristy in the summer but calms down during our other three seasons. Tons of outdoor things to do in the summer, though people who live in the northern lower peninsula tend to flee to the upper peninsula in the summer months. In the winter we...

    Permanent Wood Foundation

    I'm looking at a home with a PWF (permanent wood foundation) and wanted to see if anyone here has or has had a home with a PWF? From my research it appears proper drainage is key to maintain integrity, however from what I can tell the basement is extremely dry and I didn't see any signs of...

    The best gluten-free flour I have ever tried

    We typically purchase bulk almond flour (25lbs) from Honeyville, and you can typicaly get a coupon that drives the price down to $5/lb. It looks like the 25lb package of Cassava is $6/lb. Since your purchase have you received any promotional codes or coupons? We have our son on a Paleo diet...

    Any Pizza Lovers Out there!!

    Almond flour crust is ok, however I think it makes the pizza have a nutty aftertaste. I've had good luck with cauliflower crust though.

    Keto isn't for me and I'm confused.. please help

    I started the Carb Nite Solution about three weeks ago. Its a mix of ultra low-carb (30g a day) and a weekly carb intake of 6-8 hours for one night. So far its going OK. I haven't really lost much weight, but my pants are a little looser. I'm also in the middle of SS so perhaps that's why I...

    Runners, Running and enjoying it

    Start out with a slow pace. Don't try to run a 8-9 minute mile right off the bat. As blackdogdeek said, try to couch to 5k plan, it worked great for my wife.

    Why cant we solve the real estate agent 6% ripoff?

    My wife and I used a realtor to buy our first home. She was ok. We were a young naive couple and were ripe for the picking. IMO she pressured us into the sale, even when we raised a concern about having the funds available for the closing. She asked us if we could borrow from our parents...

    Improve my 1/2 Marathon Time...

    Bingo. Not much you can do training-wise. How did you feel on your two training races? Gut ok? Body feel ok? You mentioned that you left a little in the tank, so that's a positive. My only word of advise if to take what the course gives you. Slower up hills and faster going down. Do...

    Anyone do Paleo, or have thoughts on it?

    They both have their uses. I don't really have a preference. Almond flour doesn't have as strong of a taste as coconut flour I guess. We typically buy Bob's Red Mill coconut flour(Amazon) and Honeyville Almond Flour(http://shop.honeyville.com/blanched-almond-flour.html).

    Anyone do Paleo, or have thoughts on it?

    That's it. Fairly easy to make too. You can toast it and put on some homemade preserves or use it for french toast. Very versatile.

    Anyone do Paleo, or have thoughts on it?

    Funny you mention that, my wife's friend actually just bought us that book a month ago. My son is addicted to her banana bread recipe. It's nice too because it uses minimal coconut & almond flour ($$$). We've been fans since we stumbled upon her "White bread" recipe while back...

    Anyone do Paleo, or have thoughts on it?

    So you're eating breakfast at 4am? You'd almost need to treat your 8-9am thing as a meal since its 4 hours between. I try to bring a shake with me to work if I've worked out that morning. Maybe you could do that? I throw an avocado, banana, almond butter, raw honey, and a little coconut milk...

    Anyone do Paleo, or have thoughts on it?

    My family has been doing Paleo/Primal for the past few years. We slowly, over the course of 6 months transitioned to strict Paleo. My son has had several food allergies since birth, my wife did an elimination diet while nursing and we found out he was allergic to corn. Corn is in everything...

    My goal was under the 2 hr mark. I came in a 1:58:19, a 9 min pace. I was pretty conservative at the beginning of the race and then was in the middle 8's the last 3 miles. Felt good the whole race, and this was my first race running Paleo.
