Yup!  All the time. YUMYUM!!  We usually marinate our tofu in a soy
sauce/ginger/garlic/chile mixture for a couple of hours before cooking
it up.  Very tasty and the chiles and garlic are good to eat straight
out of the marinade although I like the garlic better after it has
marinated for a week or so in the soy.

On the plant side of things, the chiles that survived the aphid invasion
are starting to really perk up and put on some leaves ya!  I even have a
few jalapenos already.  I've planted some new seed (fresno, rocoto,
thai, habanero, and some others I can't 'member) but I'm a bit doubtful
on my luck this year.  We cant seem to keep them warm enough in a place
where the cats wont knock them around and I think Stan will NOT be happy
about having to move the seed trays in and out of the oven all the
time...

Cheers,
Shona
