Oh, well that explains it. The more common phrase is “great minds think alike.”

What can I say? My posse is a notch above ‘great’ :woman_shrugging:t2:

As a teenager, I got a parking ticket – my very first crime. I had broken a law.

I stared long and hard at that piece of paper under my windshield wiper, I said to myself “Is this the first step down the path to lawlessness for me??”

For the record, I mailed a check off the next day.

I have mushrooms to use up before they go bad. I do believe something like this will be on my plate this week!

Ahhh - I usually use GMTA (Great Minds Think Alike). You just went a few steps beyond Great to BRILLIANT! :wink:

Sounds good to me but I have no idea how to do it. Shall I just make a post and @LindaWhit can link to it in the intro of each new What’s For Dinner thread? Or @LindaWhit do you have a better idea?

ONE. STEP. BEYOOOOOOONNNNNNDDDDDD.

Madness.

I think that works. And if I forget, someone else can grab it and link it below the initial start to the thread.

Roasted sesame/ginger/soy/sriracha chicken breast on a nest of sauteed gai lan and carrots.

Pasta e cecci with chicken meatballs and a pile of broccoli with OO (paging @GretchenS) and a little house sourdough. We were out until late with friends and I quickly threw this together. I’m finishing off some German Pinot Noir that I refrigerated (more than) a few days ago (@Vecchiouomo).

Not fancy but decently nutritious and got the job done.

@mariacarmen my doctor said to target cheese and deli meat to help with high BP. I don’t know if you indulge much in either. Also “little to no alcohol” (boo hiss) or tobacco.

Local peach crumble ice cream for dessert:

yeah, been hitting italian subs with my sister too often (although we always split them) and i do tend to snack on cheese.

little to no booze does not compute. i can go to 1 glass of wine a night 2-4 nights a week mebbe… no tobacco for me anyway, as of 2 years ago.

Thanks!
