145.4...Toasted Sesame Ginger Salmon
As I started eating my dinner last night, my son asked me, “Why do you always eat salmon when Daddy’s not home?” I told him that Daddy doesn’t like salmon so I eat it when he’s not around. I offered him a bite of the Toasted Sesame Ginger Salmon I was enjoying and he said, “Yum!! How does Daddy not like this!?!”. ‘Nuff said.

Sesame Ginger Honey Glaze:
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour over salmon.
*Note: I didn’t have green onions so I used parsley. It’s green too right??
Monday night while my son was at basketball practice, my daughter and I went to dinner at Sammy’s Woodfired Pizza. I ordered the Chopped Chicken Salad, one of my favorite salads ever.
Breakfast yesterday was scrambled egg beaters with spinach, parsley and jack cheese.
After I took the kids to school, I had an appointment, then a PTO meeting at the school. Lunch was a delicious Grilled Chicken Greek Salad at Marketplace Grill.
I seriously love the Toasted Sesame Ginger Salmon that I had for dinner last night.
I happened to have leftover white rice to go with it. Added some steamed broccoli and dinner was done.
I had the leftover broccoli this morning in my eggs.
After school drop-off, I went to the gym for an hour. Then it was off to Lisa’s to celebrate Valerie’s birthday!
Lisa has become an expert at throwing these birthday breakfasts!
Happy Birthday Valerie!!
I was only there for about 45 minutes before I had to head back to the school for an event in my son’s class. Lunch was a Chicken Caesar Salad at Urban Plates before running off to my next appointment.
Now I’m at Starbucks enjoying a green tea before picking up the kiddos from school.
I’ve developed this afternoon/evening routine to help me not snack and drink wine (lots of empty calories). Around 3:00 is usually when I want to start snacking. I’ve found that if I drink hot tea, it keeps me busy and takes awhile to drink so I avoid snacking. Then around 5:00 is when I start thinking a glass of wine sounds nice. Instead, I pour Pellegrino in a wine glass and enjoy that. Not exactly the same but it seems to be working. Just thought I’d share. :)
What are your tricks to avoid unnecessary snacking?

Their manager treated my husband and I like his children, and my family like his family, and he put forth his best meeting rooms for us. A bit dramatic, but TRUE!
