TOFU LOVIN'

my mom made a yummy post-workout tofu dinner.

this is a perfect dish for you vegetarians out there!

tofu is very versatile and there are many different kinds so it can suite pretty much anyone's taste pallet.

these are only some of the health benefits to tofu:

1. it lowers bad cholesterol

2. it can substitute for meat, however per 150g of lean meat, you need to eat 290g of tofu.

3. tofu is low in fat, calories, and cholesterol.

(per 100g there is only 3.6g of fat, 110 cals, and 0 cholesterol)

4. it is rich in B-vitamins and calcium.

5. tofu reduces the risk of osteoporosis, breast and prostate cancer.

however one thing you need to watch out for when cooking tofu is that it absorbs oil easily. but no need to worry since there are numerous ways to make tofu without using too much oil such as in soups, and stir-fry.

be sure to give tofu a shot, you won't regret it!

COMFORT

step brothers and he's just not the into you are some of my all-time favorites.

they just move you in ways that make you wanna wear unicorn shirts and find a boyfee like ben affleck.

it doesn't get much better than some sweet and salty popcorn and vitamin water to accompany these brilliant movies.

so if you feel glum, and that the world isn't on your side, this combination of awesomeness might make your day a tad brighter.

p.s. comfy blankets and pillows also add a pinch of joy.

MISSING THIS

looking through these pictures makes me miss my friends so much more. now that university life has started, it is has gotten a lot harder to stay in touch with close friends, even one's that are still in the same city, or the same school for that matter. one of my besties has gone out to uni in ontario and i miss her like crazy, and i'm literally counting down the days to be able to see her again. i guess you really don't appreciate what you have until it leaves you, even if it's only for a short while.
