quinoa tabouli, my little ponies and donuts.

Some weekend highlights:

1. Went out for dinner with friends and rocked the ordering.  Thanks to a very kind and patient server who was tipped well, I got exactly what I wanted and it was healthy and oh so delicious.  On my plate were 2 broiled fish tacos with pico de gallo and black beans on corn tortillas with just a sprinkle of cheese.  Then for a side I had quinoa tabouli - WOW.  So amazingly good.  I chose club soda with lime to drink all evening with one little vodka drink (that had more ice than liquid) a bit later on. SUCCESS I say.

2. I attended a My Little Pony 4 year old birthday party, complete with a delicious cake full of pastel frosting and ice cream on the side.  I had to turn down the birthday girl's sweet grandma TWICE, but I did not have any. WOOT.

3.  I attended a super fun workout called a Bike & Brunch.  The caterer brought tons of food - including a huge box full of donuts!?!? Not only did I not eat one, but I sought out the planners and expressed my concern (which of course she supported - she had specifically requested fruit.) Not all that long ago, not only would I have been tempted to eat one or more donuts, but I probably would have let my kids have one too.  Now, I was the one working advocating for healthy options. POSITIVE CHANGE people! Keep on keepin' on.
