So after all that writing about tofu, I realized I had a great desire to wok and roll. Indeed folks, the time was nigh to whip up a classic tofu stir-fry for Mr. M and I.
It’s been such a crazy start to the week – in fact, I cannot believe that today is only Tuesday – and I wanted something healthy, and tasty, and that I could put together with my eyes closed.

And since I wasn’t too keen on the idea of eating banana bread for dinner (only because I ate half of a lemon meringue pie for my supper last night), stir-fry it was.
À la tofu.
This morning, while riding skytrain, I did two things – two things that can be perfectly summed up by just one word:
Mortification.
Holy doodle, it’s a boon and a half that I don’t embarrass easily.
First, I was SO into my crossword that I actually drooled onto my paper.
Or maybe it got on my purse – I’m not sure.
And although it wasn’t a ton of drool, and I desperately tried to keep it in, once I realized that I was leaking from my mouth – alas.
To no avail.
I’m pretty sure the girl sitting to my right was busting a gut for all of Canada, because the seat was vibrating pretty steadily for the next ten minutes.
(The fact that I too was laughing my face off could also have something to do with this.)
I couldn’t look up for the life of me, for fear that I would make eye contact with someone else who had espied my errant behavior because this would have undoubtedly propelled me into the most epic case of the “laughs” ever recorded in the history of the world, from which, I’m sure, I would never have recovered.
Then, about five minutes later (although in my completely cracked mind it seemed like these events happened simultaneously) my umbrella got loose from where it was resting between my knees.
I watched it fall in almost slow motion – although again in real life it was moving at quite a clip.
(This along with its steep angle of trajectory alarmed me.)
It kept tumbling forward, before making contact with the the legs (or you know, bum cheeks) of the man standing in front of me, only to come to rest, wedged in his crotchular area.
This, in the parlance of our times was very, very awkward.
Like, the most ever.
EVER.
The look he gave me may have taken years off of my life.
Good thing all that laughing just piles them back on.
So there you have it. My Tuesday started out on a high point, hilarity-wise, and will end on an equally stellar note, health and taste-wise.
And knowing M and I – there will be a ton more laughs too.
Let’s get down to business:

Chop it!

Wok it!

Sauce it!

Add spinach:

But seriously, add more:

For a brilliant, final result of:

So there you have it folks – tofu stir-fry for the skytrain rider’s soul.
How were your Tuesdays? Anything crazy happen around your parts?
I would really, really love to hear about it.
