This was the weekend of salmon, apparently. National Salmon Weekend, at least at the Catrin Household.

Saturday

B: frittata, black coffee
L: 'Waldorf' salmon salad, roasted brussel sprouts, banana
roughly 90 minute walk in the woods with friends - hard to call it a fitness walk Fun though!
D: baked wild salmon fillet, sauteed cabbage/carrots/onion, bamboo stalks - this last was rather odd but not bad! I had no idea that bamboo stalks have chambers in them. I took fresh pineapple/strawberry/organic raisin salad for dessert.

L: Lox, olives, banana at church coffee hour
30 minute fast workout at apt. fitness center (rain prevented riding, no time to head to gym)
