All Fruit Loops Taste the Same


Apparently it is marketing brilliance that relies on visual cues.

Istanbul


 Who knew this was the most  visited city?  I have been there, I remember we took a wonderful boat ride up the bosphorus strait that divides Europe and Asia.  We did pass by some luxury homes/palaces.  We visited the Haggia Sophia mosque pictured here.  My preference is always the scenic tours.

Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date - Appliances and Silken Tofu with Dressing


 Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art and Dinner Date 'Appliances' theme!  I did an electric kettle, I liked the sleek lines on this one.  It was $275 when I googled months back not inexpensive.

For the Dinner date, I made a silken (soft) tofu with dressing.


1 package of silken tofu, sliced.
Dressing:
2 1/2 tbs soy sauce
1 tbs Chinese black vinegar (can substitute rice vinegar)
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbs chili oil crisp (or use your favourite hot sauce)
1 tsp sugar
3 cloves of garlic minced
2 green onions diced

In a bowl, slice the tofu into 1/2 inch sections.
Top with dressing. I like to microwave it for 2 1/2 minutes until it is deliciously warm.

This is my inspiration link from Instagram.
