Us too. It was the first appliance we purchased while we were still renting. We didn't buy anything else until we moved into our house 2 years later.

I thought tofu was something you didn't want to freeze so that is something for me to remember.
Yes, tofu can be frozen. Not sure there is any reason to freeze silken or soft, but firm and extra firm become more porous and "meatier" (I hate using that term when speaking about vegetarian food, but you know what I mean). If you marinate your tofu, the frozen and thawed stuff will absorb the flavors better. It does get a little darker in color once frozen so don't worry about that.
