Remember my birthday twin genius that I met at WordCamp?  We not only share the same birthday, but also blogs with "diary" in the title?

&nbsp;

Coinkidink or astrologically predetermined?

&nbsp;

Another coinkidink or astrological predetermination:  Our readers tend to perk up and comment a lot on our cooking posts.  Coming from a Portuguese family whose food obsession rivals the Italians, I understand this phenomenon completely.

&nbsp;

I had the bright idea to launch a couple of he said/she said blog posts.  My proposition to Todd:  Let's choose a chick food and a guy food.  We'll cook them in our parallel universes on two separate nights.  (Todd lives in Vegas.)  We'll then...well...blah blah blog about it.

&nbsp;

Since all men loved to be propositioned in any way, shape, or form, Todd immediately accepted.  "I like the symmetry of the idea," he responded.  (Todd is one of those people who got rid of his television so he could build his brain with old-fashioned pursuits such as reading instead.  His choice of vocabulary almost always reflects his outrageous decision.)

&nbsp;

I was thrilled.  "Awesome!"  (I still have cable which I'm convinced kills more brain cells than pot.)
