BRAND AMBASSADORS Page Finally Updated!

Featured

Aloha all!

Due to the high demand of inquiries regarding CrossFit affiliates & health food stores carrying Paleo MeeNut Butter, I’ve finally updated the Brand Ambassadors page to reflect all current locations that [sometimes] keep it in stock. I advise calling ahead before making a trip.

If you would like to be added or removed from this list, if any of the links are outdated or incorrect, or if you have any questions regarding my ambassador program, please Contact Mee. Mahalo!

P.S. I apologize for being so M.I.A. lately but y’all have been keeping me pretty busy in the kitchen … I love and thank you all for the tremendous support! I am also in the process of trying to relocate & expand so I thank you in advance for your patience! :)

P.P.S. I hope all you CrossFitters are having a blast with the Open! I sure am! Do your best, stay safe, and have fun!

NOVEMBER SALES TO HELP VICTIMS OF HURRICANE SANDY

Aloha all! Most of my life I have grown up on the east coast. My parents still reside in NJ [they are a-ok!] and I lived in NYC & Long Beach, Long Island before I hopped a plane to Hawaii and eventually to SoCal …

I learned to surf in Long Beach [yes, we surf in NY!] and I have the fondest memories of time spent on this boardwalk that is now a pile of rubble, as are people’s homes, cars, etc. The devastation from Hurricane Sandy is tremendous and my heart breaks for everyone struggling through the aftermath of the storm.

I’ll be donating 3% of all my November MeeNut sales to the American Red Cross Long Island. It won’t be much but every little helps!!! Don’t even go thru Mee – please go to the Red Cross or any other legit organization doing relief work for Sandy and give what you can. Mahalo! ♥http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgkVdnxyGDk

EXPERIENCE LIFE MAGAZINE, BATTLEFIT WEST TEMPORARY SHUT DOWN, CELEBRITIES & THE CROSSFIT GAMES

ALOHA MEENUT FANS!

I need to find some MeeNut elves soon! :) No excuse for my severe lack of blogging. I’ll try my best to squeeze in some nuggets from the past few months in a few paragraphs … !

NUMERO UNO. Drum roll please … Paleo MeeNut Butter made a little cameo in the September issue of Experience Life Magazine! So stoked for the product highlight! Check out the issue and the magazine if you can! Lots of great info and resources both on the website and in print.

DOS. As many of you may know, I am an avid CrossFitter and like to torture myself through local CrossFit competitions from time to time. However I’ve been injured since the SoCal Regionals and it’s been somewhat of a downward spiral since then. I know I’m not alone in the pool of athletes who continue to train through injuries but that doesn’t justify my stubbornness and utter stupidity, because now instead of dealing with one injury, I now have two. Score! I haven’t done a proper back squat since May and I’m going crazy. I just hope I’m recovered for BattleFit West on 9/29! It will be a larger-scale event for Mee Eat Paleo and in preparation for my booth there, I will be TEMPORARILY SHUTTING DOWN PRODUCTION for regular orders the ENTIRE WEEK OF 9/23 – 9/29 so any orders received during the week prior to the event 9/15 – 9/22 will be delayed an extra week and fulfilled AFTER 9/29. I am still an army of one and it will be difficult for me to juggle regular orders on top of making product for the event simultaneously. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding! If you can’t wait that long, please feel free to order via WODshop.com or just stop by my booth at BattleFit West on the 29th!!! Lucky athletes at the BFW side cages will be walking away with some quadruple nut prizes! :)

 

TRES. At the CrossFit Games and the WOD Gear Team Series Competition this past July I was privileged to meet a plethora of CrossFit and Paleo celebrities! Check out some of the eye candy below! ;)

One of my favorite athletes, Camille Leblanc-Bazinet! She is as beautiful in person and was sweet enough to take a pic with me!

First female repeat CrossFit Games champ Annie Thorisdottir!!!!! Elite, beautiful and humble! We were able to gift her a jar of MeeNut Butter ... which I'm sure she loved! ;)

In the presence of Paleo greatness - The Civilized Caveman's George Bryant and The Food Lovers' Primal Palate's Hayley Mason & Bill Staley! I'm pretty sure I gained Paleo superpowers while posing for this pic! George is an incredible friend and one of the best chefs I know! And Hayley & Bill are responsible for paleo bacon chocolate chip cookies, 'nuff said! Check out their amazing blogs at http://www.civilizedcavemancooking.com and http://beta.primal-palate.com/

So stoked to meet Coach Carl Paoli of Gymnastics WOD. I owe my muscle up to this man's expertise! Great tutorial vids at http://gymnasticswod.com/

I love the Modern Gypsies, they are so cool, even minus one! Ever since I saw them win Expedition Impossible I've been itching to apply for the show myself LOL :) Can you imagine Mee flailing about on national TV??

None other than O.G. Firebreather, Greg Amundson! Not only did he take the time to snap this pic, he helped promote my MeeNut Butter to passersby in the process!

Amazing friends from Itsumo Ahi Jerky - Lisa, Daren, Alec, Nichole! Without their help I wouldn't have been able to deliver pre-orders of MeeNut Butter to my customers! So grateful for their support and love! Show them some love at https://www.itsumoahijerky.com/

Got to meet El Presidente of WODshop.com, Jerry Lamigo! WODshop.com is a one-stop shop for all things CrossFit & Paleo and they're cool enough to carry my MeeNut Butter!

Mee finally got to meet Lee of Paleo Treats LOL :) Love this lady! So sweet and encouraging! And if you haven't tried their treats, you're missing out! I wish I had some of their Cacao Now NOW!!!

My paleo-asian sista Michelle from Nom Nom Paleo and her super cute Double-Os! She and her hubby Henry run one of the best blogs out there! http://nomnompaleo.com/

Steve from PaleoKits not only provides great paleo snacks, his heart for inner-city youth has spawned one of the best movements I've seen to keep kids off the streets! Your purchase helps change lives! http://stevesoriginal.com/

Owen from OhMyBar! Super cool athlete and chef providing yummy treats for us hungry athletes! http://www.ohmybar.com/

An amazing SoCal sunset during the CrossFit Games on Friday night

I owe it all to my loyal fans, amazing family & friends, and ultimately The Giver of all good things. :) I love and thank you all! Soli Deo Gloria!

CrossFit Games – SoCal Regionals May 11-13, 2012

Aloha MeeNuts!

This weekend is the long-awaited SoCal Regional qualifiers for the 2012 CrossFit Games! If you’re free come down and support all the amazing athletes! I am not a vendor but I will have my tent and banner up at tent city with some product. First come first serve. Pick up new jars, recycle old jars. Competition will be held from May 11-13 at the Pomona Fairplex. Details here.

Apologies in advance for being slow to respond to emails & messages. This is a crazy weekend for all of us. I promise to get back to you as soon as possible! Wish us luck! Go Team BeachSide CrossFit! :)

RECAP: ROAD TRIP SUCCESS!

What a road trip! As most of you know, I was and am a CrossFitter first, so I know full-well the amazing camaraderie that comes via collaborative suffering through a gnarly WOD. Once that clock beeps zero, even though you may have started out as “strangers”, you magically cross over into a deep CrossFit empathy rooted in an appreciation for clean-eating and the ability to move large loads long distances quickly. :)

So although the primary objective of my first official road trip was to help spread the Paleo MeeNut Butter stoke down to San Diego, an indirect byproduct was WODding at almost every affiliate I visited … 6 WODs in two days! Holy moly I am sore! But if I had to do the road trip all over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. Except maybe schedule in some free time because I didn’t get to surf once or even make it to the beach! No bueno! :(

So here’s what was accomplished in addition to dealing MeeNut-Butter-paleo-crack-in-a-jar for three days:

3 days of travel
8 CrossFit Affiliates
550 miles driven
6 WODs in 2 Days [ridiculous] which in total consisted of:
5400 meters run
358 double unders
185 kettlebell swings
165 box jumps
160 push press
75 abmat situps
60 GHD situps
71 chest-to-bar pullups
50 regular pullups
45 ball slams
25 power cleans
15 back squats
12 deadlifts
1 tree pose [can't leave that one out!]
1 amazing home-cooked meal [thanks again to Civilized Caveman!]
1 ridiculous dessert cheat meal [at Sprinkles!! hehe :) ]

 

 

 

I couldn't have survived the trip without Yoori's help!

And countless photos, videos, memories … all shared with my 1 amazing friend Yoori. Thanks so much for all your help on this road trip!!! Couldn’t have survived without your help and support!

Needless to say I am getting a massage today by the one and only Katie Carlo and am not looking forward to CF Games Open WOD 12.3! The only reason I didn’t do any toes-to-bar on this trip is because I was so tired by my second to last stop that I opted out of the WOD which programmed it. PRAISE THE LORD! :)

 

As exhausted as I am, I got to visit some awesome CrossFit Affiliates and share my Paleo MeeNut Butter with their equally awesome communities. Thank you all for your support! CrossFit Inland Valley, BoomBOX CrossFit, CrossFit Mission Gorge, CrossFit Socal, CrossFit 858, CrossFit Orange County, CrossFit Ero, Karma CrossFit you all rock! To those affiliates I couldn’t add to my itinerary, there WILL be a next time I promise!

MAHALO AND SHAKA LOVE TO YOU ALL! :)

P.S. All you curious ladies – I get asked a lot how I keep my mermaid hair under control during WODs – my friend Yoori caught my transformation here on video. All it takes is one braid, one rubberband, six hair clips and one headband of course! LOL :) The “Transformation”
