The Rich Man's Tuna



Mike and I have discovered a wonderful treat. Salmon, made up like tuna fish. We have been grilling salmon for awhile now, and Mike puts the perfect spices on it, lets it marinate and....YUM. Well, the other night we had some left over in the fridge, so Mike put some mayo in and and we put it on crackers, like tuna. It was scrumptious. Not a cheap treat, but worth the splurge! I bought some canned salmon tonight, but I doubt it will compair to Mike's delicious grilled version.

So. Let me share another story. We were at Mike's cousin's graduation party this weekend. Mike's little sister came into town for it, as well. Well, us girls (yes I still consider myself one of the young girls) decided to take off for a bit and go try on swimwear at Target. Okay, I KNOW that was a bad decision for me to make in the first place, being that I am still carrying around a little (read: all) baby fat. But I really didn't know how poisonous the environment would actually be. I somehow endured watching them and their perfect, untouched by children, bodies try on bikini after bikini and look fantastic...while I basically hid in the dressing room. So, due to this very traumatic experience...Mike and I joined a gym today. HOORAY! I am going to take naked before and after pictures of us, and post them on the blog. Haha, you wish. :)

Target has awful lighting! No one looks good in there. Good luck to you and Mike getting buff.

You are beautiful and have two wonderful girls to show for it! The other day when I went to see my Mexico doctor, he took one look at my stomach and this was his comment..."uhh are you using any creams for those stretch marks?" my reply... "Nope, only me and my husband see them...and a doctor every now and then." He was not too thrilled!

Anyhoo, how did you get Rachel potty trained? It is so time for Zach. Diapers are out of control expensive down here and are smaller so I have to buy a bigger size and get even less for my money! It sucks.
