Tonight I tried to recreate this thing that my mom used to make all the time when I was little involving rice, tofu and mushrooms. It didn’t work, but what I ended up with was okay, anyway:
It looks kind of risottoy, but that’s through no talent of my own. I just over cooked the rice [...]

I made this for dinner again, except this time I kind of forgot to look at the recipe halfway through and just started throwing things together. I have a bad habit of doing that, but it turned out fine:
Once again, I would like to tell you that I am in love with these bread crumbs. [...]

I know. I am an idiot. I forgot to get a close up of the tofu. You’ll just have to trust me when I tell you that Emily is very smart.
Here are her instructions:

Remember when I wrote about how I am really bad at cooking tofu? (Sorry there are no pictures in that post; when I had my photo issues, all of my uploaded ones - which means only, you know, like 4,000 or something - got deleted.) Well, this week I am on a mission.

I have about 42 of Heidi Swanson’s recipes bookmarked, but for some reason I always forget about them when I’m trying to figure out something to cook. Tonight, I finally made her Garlic Soba Noodles and it was SO. GOOD.
But the best part wasn’t the soba noodles. It was the tofu. I usually just make [...]

Sorry for the late post, I didn’t eat any snacks this afternoon.
Unless you consider about a pound of cookie dough a snack.
I don’t.
Chocolate chip cookies. I made them for my friend’s bbq tomorrow. And then I ate three. And then I stood over the tupperware container, staring at them. Chris finally pulled me away when [...]

I think I figured this little issue out. Or at least a very nice man named Andrew in support did. Apparently I have to start naming my pictures.
Sigh. It’s a whole additional step that I’m just not that interested in taking on, but I guess I’ll manage.
The first picture I have for you tonight is [...]

I don’t understand tofu. I try and I try and I try, but I just can’t get it right.
Tonight, I tried the freezer method, which I thought was finally going to be the answer to all of my tofu questions. You drain it, freeze it, defrost it, then squeeze the water out again.
It was a [...]

So needless to say I woke up with a headache this morning and had a ton of stuff to do like errands, grocery shopping, cleaning, etc. For breakfast I had the same thing as yesterday, minus the banana because we were all out:
Then we walked Jack to the other end of the neighborhood to [...]
