It had been probably 35 years since I had eaten Jello until I had to get on SCD Intro and gelatin was one of the few legal foods. Since that time I’ve eaten a LOT of homemade jello using organic grape juice and grass fed Great Lakes Gelatin. I usually eat two servings per day of it as a desert or snack. Initially I just assumed the jello was added to give you a decent snack but I’ve since learned that gelatin is a key part of the healing effect of SCD. While the GAPS diet uses lots of bone broth, SCD relies on jello for the same basic effect.

The Marathon of Painting
New supplies, ready to paint
Last year our friend Teri Capp participated in the Seattle 30-Day Art Challenge and we went to the show during the first Thursday art walk in Pioneer Square. It was a fun event with 8×10 paintings of all types and quality plastering the walls of the gallery space. It got so crowded and hot in there we finally left to walk around outside to go visit other galleries. The show was very inspiring and I actually started doing some pastels again as Teri was working on her 30-day paintings and I thought “hmm, maybe I should try this next year if I’m not doing contract work.”
It is now next year and I signed up this week to do the 30-Day Challenge. Since I’m just working on my own iOS apps right now and haven’t been able to do my usual physical challenges of a marathon or ultra I decided this would be my “marathon” challenge this year. The Challenge starts tomorrow when I pick up canvases and ends on November 17. The show will be on Dec. 5 at the T.K. Artists Lofts in Pioneer Square.
