There’s nothing like a week of travel in one of your favorite food cities or a long holiday weekend by the pool indulging with friends to make you want to come back home and do a little detox.  Put those two things together, though, and you’re just begging for a little Whole30 re-start! I’ve actually been wanting to do this for months now, but tomorrow seems like the perfect day to kick it off. We don’t have any major travel planned for the next month, just a few smaller occasions to navigate sans sugar.  Speaking of sans sugar, if you’re not familiar with Whole30 you can get the Cliff’s notes of what’s in and what’s out here.  Even possibly more than the food detox, May was a crazy month and we need a detox from eating out so often and a reason to be home for dinner and winding down to our normal routine every night.  This post is labeled week two because we published week one here over a year ago.  I’m planning on flip flopping the two and starting with week two this week and week one next week. I will be sure to publish week 3 here, too, with a few days to spare.  Now off to insta-cart some groceries!
