Super heroes, soy lattes, BBQ tofu, and creamsicle cookies!

Spent the afternoon hanging with Lacey. We went for tasty lattes at the Crimson Cup. I had ginger spice, nom!  Then after we talked about all things ever we decided to look for costumes. I regret to think that the costume box with all of the children's costumes is missing. And so far I can't find a new Princess Peach costume for Bean. I don't know what to tell her if we can't find one. :( We had a silly time trying on super hero masks. And I posed with Paula Deen. She loves butter ya'll! <3 Hehe... Then we headed back to my house to make some BBQ tofu. Which as I lack tons of experience working with was quite a to do. We had to figure out how to cook it. I had this recipe for a delicious BBQ marinade, but last time I made it my attempts led to really squishy tofu. I drained it with a cutting board on it with a tomato can on top but it still came out really squishy last time. Plus I accidentally splatted my tofu when I pressed down a little on it so it was too broken to make big pieces. This time I drained it without pushing on it. I made nice little eighths out of the block. Then I dry fried the pieces on a teflon flat skillet. I did not use any oil on it. I cooked it low and slow. In the end it came out nice and browned with crispy outsides. The middle had a great texture like a well cooked scrambled egg. Firm no gross squish. And the BBQ, which I marinated it in for half an hour  before putting it back on the skillet to fry, was tasty as well. We had it with spicy oven fries and salads. We finished up by baking what was labeled as a creamscicle cut out cookie. But it tasted more like an animal cracker. And with the little piggy cutters I made and elephants that Lacey made they came  out nomtrelescent and adorable! We just finished up the last batch while rocking out to my playlist. Good times! I am full happy and still on a search for a creamscicle cookie. Because while these are great they don't live up to the name that was attached to them. And that's okay. At least I tried it out before the party! I am gonna relax and hopefully get a call. ;)
