She’s constantly producing top notch content, and has been a leader in our industry for the last several years. She’s got an enormous heart, and I’m beyond honored to call her a friend and mentor. Today we’re going to talk about her Practical Paleo second edition, and we’ll cover some of the questions you submitted; welcome to the show Diane Sanfilippo!<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: Hello! {laughs}<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughs}<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: Thanks for having me. I like that I can see you, because you’re giving a little “ole dance” to my welcome.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughing} I do, it’s Oprah style and nobody can ever really see it.<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: {laughs} That’s awesome. Yeah, I’m excited to chat with you.<br> <br> Cassy Joy: Me too! I know that readers; listeners are going to be really excited to hear from you. Just in general, but especially about this new project, this new book that’s coming out. Practical Paleo is really one of the most acclaimed books in paleo, gluten free, etc. I’m going there. I’m giving it all the titles!<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: They should see the faces I make; like “oh no!”<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughs} Oh, it really has been. But with all things, content evolves, and you’re getting ready to release the new and expanded version of Practical Paleo. I would love to hear from you; what differences are you most excited about to really share with the world?<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: Ok, so I’m going to start with the superficial stuff, just because I’m holding my first copy right now, and first and foremost because this is what everyone will see when they first look at the book, is that we’re releasing it in a hard cover as well as a soft cover. So, for the people who’ve had the book for a long time, they’re like, “Yes! Finally!”<br> <br> Cassy Joy: {laughs}<br> <br> Diane Sanfilippo: And I’m like, yes! But you know, a lot of people use it as a reference. As you know, only about a third or a little more than a third of the book is recipes, which is still a ton of recipes. It’s over 150 recipes now, which is a lot more than I had before. But you’re flipping through it constantly, it kind of reads and works like a textbook, so the soft cover is fine, there’s nothing wrong with it. There’s a new soft cover edition as well and it’s $10 less on the cover price, so that’s definitely accessible for a lot of people. But the hardcover just feels really special to me. So that, first and foremost.<br> <br> And then second, the photography in the book; I’ve reshot almost all of ...
