This week’s Tofu Tuesday is a recipe for: Tofu Salad Ingredients 1 large cube of soft tofu 1 leftover bag of salad greens Preparation Open bag of salad. Present to soft tofu. See what happens.

Tofu Tuesday: Narrow depth of field

Published by

I haven’t experimented much with live subjects on my new 50mm lens because I’m not quick with manual focus yet. I’m getting better though. I love the narrow depth of field, but it’s the hardest setting to manual focus with. Narrow or shallow depth of field means that only a small area is in focus. The rest is blurred.

Tofu Tuesday: Bunny bath time and Monocle Morph

Rabbits are very clean animals and spend a huge amount of time grooming. But from time to time they can get a bit messy underneath due to diet and/or weather. Usually, we trim away offending dirty fluff and dreads. Bunny bath time Last Thursday we gave Tofu his first bath ever. It wasn’t nearly as traumatic as we thought it would be, but it was a 2 person job. One to hold him firmly and dip his bottom into the sink and the other to shampoo and rinse. That was pretty successful and we got all the brown bits out. But then come Friday evening, Tofu was wet all underneath which is unusual for him and very uncomfortable. He was eating as usual and running around the backyard quite happily but his fur was wet, smelly and dreaded and the skin inflamed.

Tofu Tuesday: Pro Skateboarder from way back

Published by

Sorry for neglecting my weekly Tofu Tuesday blog posts. I know he has many fans across the world. This week’s edition is an oldie but a goodie. If I told you that Tofu was a good skateboarder back when he was only a year old, you probably wouldn’t believe me. Simon a.k.a. Cracked Ink took these photos about 3 years ago and they have only just now seen the light of day. Simon is an amazing artist and his work can be found here.
