My Cousins Invade Genghis Grill


The last day of my cousins’ visit to Texas went by in a whirlwind. We swam– Oh yes, we DID venture into the cold water!

We took a long walk around my campus (SMU).
We met up with some of my friends, who LOVED the twins.

And then we went to Genghis Grill! While my parents and aunt filled their dinner bowls with meat, all three of my cousins opted for vegan meals! And Charlie kept repeating, “Tofu is my favorite food ever,” as he devoured piece after piece of his teriyaki tofu. You don’t hear that very often out of an omnivore’s mouth!

No one told Charlie that kids aren’t supposed to like tofu. Apparently, no one told Abby either. Look at all that tofu in her bowl! And look at that huge smile on her face!

    Adorable pictures! Now I wish my family would come visit me!

    And BIRKENSTOCKS =D
    I’ve had them since I was a kid, they’re so comfortable. The pair I own now is this one. I never thought I’d see someone my age wear Birkenstocks *high five* 😉

    I love the fact that they enjoy tofu so much!!!

    those tofu-eating-kids are so cute…If I ever have kids, I hope no one will tell them kids are not supposed to like tofu either!

    Looks like lots of fun with the family!! I didn’t even try tofu until a few years ago… congrats on getting your cousins exposed to it, even better they actually like it!
