Quail, it's the other OTHER white meat

It's sad to say that my titles don't come w/their own echo machine...but when both of my kids ate it I heard it in my head! Tarik had found some frozen quail at Costco (or what the kids call the Pizza Store) I wanted to try something different. I mean I was simple-defrost, pull out of the package, blot off the moisture and stick on a wire rack and put in the oven for 25 minutes!

It was pretty good too. But I was pulling off the meat for Elyas who couldn't get enough meat but he is like that. A human garbage disposal more like it. We did enjoy it but it's small and there is a lot of bones to try and eat around. Not something I would recommend for anyone that has an aversion to eating meat off of bones. But for those manly carnivores, you would be in a major place of euphoria for hours. And when the kids ate the quail, brocolini AND wild rice w/mushrooms I think I should go to Vegas? Ok they didn't eat a lot of the rice and veggies but they ate some and that's all I ask! Go us for having great kids. Now if I can just keep them from eating the furinture.

So not to digress at all from this lovely topic of meat to bone ratio meals, I wanted to take some pride and admit to doing some type of workout yesterday...I found some "Total Body Sculpting with Gilad" show on the Health Channel...ok this dude is German and I swear to GOD I kept waiting to hear "I am here to PUMP YOU UP" insert claps in the approapate places. Then that afternoon I walked down the hill to get the mail...I usually drive because I am a lazy ass and it's what I do. Today I only got the mail, yes I walked. I will also add that last night I did this thing called sleep!!! I have only seen pictures of it but last night I got some, the sleep was a thing of beauty. About 11 hours of it...yeah I think I want to try that again.

So let's see if I can keep up this work out thingy that my doctor is SO on my arse about!!!!

Live Laugh Love,
Kristin
