Packin' it on!

I do still get bits of nausea and very occasionally get sick, but for the most part, my appetite seems to be unquenchable lately! And when I stepped on the scale this morning, it confirmed that I've been eating enough for two (or three, or four!) At this point, it's still good news for me to finally be gaining... but I have a feeling that with 17 weeks to go, I may not be so happy if I keep going at this rate to the end! :)

Speaking of food, I thought I'd share one of our absolute favorite recipes that we enjoyed again last night. This marinade for salmon is better than anything we've ever eaten at a restaurant... in fact last night we wondered why we would ever go spend $18+tip/per person to eat out, when the two of us ate a delicious semi-gourmet meal for $8 total!

6 tbs. olive oil
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp. basil
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cracked pepper
1 tbs. lemon juice
1 tbs. parsley

Mix together and pour over fresh salmon (or other fish). Marinate in fridge for at least 30 minutes. Cook on grill (or grill pan, as we use). We served it with sticky-rice and broccoli with hollandaise sauce. Yum!
