This week has been very bad wrist pain wise, and I have not been able to do much writing. I shouldn't really write a long post here either, but I don't want to break my posting every week streak. So hello, how are you? What tasty things have you eat recently? What fun projects are you working on?

Ahoy!

This week I had some Caramel Cone ice cream which I enjoyed very much. Also, some spicy and garlicky black beans with corn that I ate over baked potato instead of rice which was quite yummy.

I looked up Caramel Cone ice cream and it looks very good! I'm going to have to keep an eye out for it!

OMG SO GOOD. And in a bowl, it can't drip down the side of the cone because the cone is already broken up inside.

I'm sorry your wrist pain is so bad! Recently I've been making a lot of Greek salads, because it's warm enough to enjoy them properly, finally. For fun, I've been writing in a journal every day, and decorating it with stickers. Damn, I love stickers!

My CSA provided way too many carrots for two weeks in a row and so I made a delicious carrot cake. I think I'll make another - it was really good!

My current fun project, for some value of fun, is figuring out what to nominate for crossworks.

Hope your wrist feels better soon!

Wrist pain is zero fun!

Strawberries! We're right about at the peak of strawberry season here, so they've been very good lately.

I am another person eating local farm strawberries, and I've started writing a new book. I'm doing the middle section, the one with the sentient squids, first.

Sentient squids! I'm very exicted!

[mrissa]

Actually me too.

Wow!

Sorry to hear about your wrist. I hope it gets better soon.

I've been trying out different tofu recipes that turned out nicely.

[forestofglory]

Would you recommend any of the tofu recipes?

[dreamy_dragon73]

I quite like this recipe for vegetarian Mapo tofu, I've been experimenting with substituting the minced meat in Mapo tofu before and this is the first recipe that worked for me.

The other dish that turned out rather nicely was this version of Kung pao tofu.

I found both recipes on https://www.chinasichuanfood.com, so I'll probably try more of their recipes in the future.
