Ah, Valentine's. Roses. Chocolates. Jewelry. All the things that make me puke. I know I sound bitter, but I was never into that stuff even when I was in a relationship. Haha. I just find actual mental connection with a person more romantic than a card and some candy hearts. So, this is the V-day I always wanted to throw with my friends but never got around to it.

| we got the beet, we got the beet, we got the beet |
For the tofu, I just did this basic thing. But I marinated the tofu (in four chunks) in pickled beet juice. Then, I sliced it up. I was lazy and have come to realize that boiling the tofu in salted water does pretty much jack...so I just sprinkled both sides liberally with black salt. I also used fresh dill. It was pretty good! And it looked all fancy!

This is so inventive, Mo! Love the colors and textures.
Love the ideas! I know so many people who aren't big fans of valentines day and feel that's it's a greeting card holiday.
I love the sounds of your menu and those tofu squares look amazing :)
