What color is your dinner tonight?
I'm sure you remember a home-ec teacher telling you that a meal should include different contrasting colors. What color is dinner tonight? Our dinner is orange and magenta.

You should at least add a side of broccoli.

21. If I can count the blue mold growing on unrecognizable leftovers,
blue and I'm not really sure if it was leftover lasagna or what. Red, I guess.

22. at the moment, invisible. I have not prepared it yet, but white and green
seems to be the potential

I have a nice piece of fish, some fresh spinach and greens for a salad and that is as far as I have gotten.
