On the transition from the Silicon to the Tanana Valley, from urban to rural life, and from working in industry to being a full-time student to working in academia. If you see your name or photo on this blog and want it removed, please let me know and I will do so!

Miscellaneous photos, dumped here for your viewing pleasure
On Friday, Denali poked its head out and was visible from campus:
Starbuck and her paws, enjoying the fire on the couch:
The family that cleans its fangs together stays together!
Camera timer selfie fail. I wonder why the lighting turned out so bad!
A surreal moment at the laundry mat:

PUT THE BEAN CURD BOX IN YOUR FREEZER OVER 24 HOURS OR A FEW DAYS. BOIL THE BOX CHICKEN SOUP, THEN ADD IN NAPA CABBAGE, FROZEN BEAN CURD, EGG, CARROTS for a few minutes, then add in BEAN THREAD (A MUST), AND SPINACH OR ANY SIMILAR GREENS for another few minutes.
Dip the food in soy sauce OR peanut butter/soy sauce mixture, drink the nice warm nutritious soup. Great for winter evenings. Have a safe and healthy winter.
Mudder, what does freezing the tofu do? Or are you talking about a different form of bean curd? I've accidentally frozen tofu before, and it turns into a weird spongy thing. Japanese shabu-shabu uses a sauce similar to your peanut butter/soy mix, but it's sesame-based. Kind of like tahini. I would also add bamboo shoots, shiitake mushroom, thinly sliced meat, bean sprouts. Hmmmm, now I'm hungry! Do you ever get a chance to eat seal, btw? I'm curious to try it!
And speaking of delicious things, you haven't posted about any neighborhood moose lately. Are they still around?
@Rena, spongy is the goal. Spongy tofu in soup is tasty! But you really have to wait until it cools down before you eat it, because the hot broth squirting out is... OUCH!

@Rena, Oh, I've never tried seal, but I have tried muktuk, which is whale. It tastes like fish-flavored rubber bands. :)
As for meese, I have not seen any lately, which is okay by me. :)
