Noodle and tofu

Feels like Spring is coming sooner every year up here in Alaska. today was above freezing all day, with huge puddles forming from the melting snow. It is one of the most exciting times of the year I think. where you can feel such change happening all around. 

It felt like a day to make a bunch of my favorite foods all in one meal!
