X-post -- I RESISTED! Also a quick sauce recipe!

[Guest guest]

Small victory today. Isaac started kindergarten today. After dropping

him off, the school had coffee and donuts in the quad for the parents. I

had a cup of coffee, and EYED the donuts, but didn't pick one up! I

almost did, but told myself I had already had my breakfast, and that it

was just the emotions of dropping my only kid off for kindergarten, not

hunger. It wasn't that hard (THIS time) to resist.

On another note, a quick tip for a sauce for chicken, fish, whatever.

Last night we had my mother and a family friend over for dinner. I fixed

salmon (broiled) and two sauces. Both sauces were prepared the same way,

and were super simple to make, and super tasty! A couple of large

spoonfuls of plain, full fat yogurt into a Magic Bullet cup, and a bunch

of whatever herb, whiz for a few seconds, throw into the refrigerator.

One was tarragon, the other was chives. Pretty, really easy, quite

tasty. Could also do it with basil or cilantro (but I don't LIKE

cilantro) or your favorite herb.

Sounds good Eleanor,

I use something similar for taco salad. I use equal parts plain

yogurt and mild salsa mixed together. I dribble it over shredded

cabbage, then taco meat and topped with shredded cheese.

I like it!

PS - Good job on staying away from the doughnuts!
