Natty, you're so pretty! How do you do it? No nose hairs! I'm so jealous.
Well, life isn't supposed to be perfect. Life is supposed to be difficult, actually. But there are some moments when everything is just fine, when I don't want anything, and I don't need anything. It could be a time when I'm just looking out at my environment, or petting my kitty, or putting along on my motorcycle. Or when I make a perfect dish. I rarely do anything perfect, at best it's 90 something percent. But yesterday I made the perfect fresh tofu in soup. I had a fish head in my freezer, so I boiled that in anchovy bouillon with garlic, onion, and cilantro. Then picked the flesh off and put it back in the pot. I added corn starch to thicken it up. This was right before breaking fast, so I was doing other things at the same time. After breaking fast with a couple of dates then praying the sunset prayer, I reheated the soup and added fish cake and an egg. Then I poured it over a block of fresh tofu. It was a beautiful sight! And the flavor, oh my God! Alhamdulillah! I didn't even taste the stuff when I made it. Oh no, I should have taken a snapshot!
My outfit wasn't perfect though. That blue green dress made me feel like a drag queen.
