Hey ladies, hope you're all enjoying your 4th! I'm just lounging around today, it's so humid I'm just sitting here at the 'puter with the fan on, Michael's playing Shrek 2 on the Xbox and Rick's out riding his bike at the Choppers Only 4th of July motorcycle rally. I don't know if you guys watch American Chopper or the Biker Buildoff series on the Discovery Channel but a bunch of the guys are down here for the event...Billy Lane, Paul Cox, Indian Larry. I
was going down to see the bikes until I found out i'd have to pay $10 to get in, cheapskate that I am
. Instead, Michael and I are making the jello cheesecake shaped like a flag
. I'll whip up a salmon and tofu salad for dinner later on. We're having the usual Sunday BBQ but we're having burgers and grilled shrimp along with our apple pie.
Angie, you probably already cooked yours up but I usually put my salmon filet in a foil pouch and just sprinkle salt, pepper and garlic powder on it, maybe some dill and just pop it in the oven or throw it right on the BBQ grill. Then I squeeze some lemon juice on it when I'm ready to eat. Easy and no added fat. Rick on the other hand, would smear a layer of mayo on it then wrap it and bake it. That's really tasty too but ya know how much fat mayo can have--and I only like the real stuff, no reduced fat or fat free *yuck* Hey girl, you've been doing great and a few pieces of fudge aren't going to kill you. You're doing a lot better than I am. I'm not even trying right now. I will have to soon though, if I'm going to meet Cal in October. Talk about motivation! Don't work too hard today, it's a holiday!
Julie, we enjoyed the movie Two Brothers, that was really cute. Kinda sad at times, but overall a good movie. I stayed out of the popcorn for the most part. I just bought a kids pack (the popcorn and drink) so there wasn't that huge bag to deal with. Hehe, Rick and I have done the same thing w/buying the movie popcorn then going home to watch a DVD... you're salmon sounds great. I love that soy/ginger combination on chicken and steaks too.
Well, hope everyone else is having a blast this weekend> Anyone off tomorrow? I am I am
See y'all around tomorrow.
