Change of plans

Gina decided today to make a new recipe that called for canned salmon. But when she opened the can, the salmon looked like this: Yes that's right, that's the skin and bones and the spinal cord and the guts. Here, look closer. Click to enlarge.
So on to plan B. Pasta and tomato sauce.

Great Workout

By some miracle of technology, Wii machines can connect to each other across the country for competitions. Last night we had a great time racing Mario Karts against Daniel and Elizabeth. Just for the record, Thomas won.

Look who showed up this morning, dancing around in Thomas' Wii Fit step aerobics class!
Gina made an appearance too, over on the far left.

Spiedini

This is a great recipe for chicken and zucchini kebabs. You just grill the chicken and zucchini then serve with the salsa, which is delicious. Quick, healthy, and cheap to make (especially later this summer, when our squash and zucchini grow). We omitted the garlic in the salsa because we think raw garlic tastes nasty.
