We covered a lot of topics today. Ultimately......Tap the brakes on this thing called life, BYOS (bring your own stuff instead of using consumables), try this scampi recipe, and use your manners people. Notes: Business Insider article showing Silicon Valley execs are choosing low-tech life for their kiddos Gratitude journal -365 days Thinkbaby Sunscreen-EQG score of 1. Protection without the toxins. Shrimp scampi- about 30 shrimp, I started with frozen shrimp so I put them in a cool water bath to thaw while I melted ½ stick of real butter, a dribble of a few ounces of white wine, a dollop of garlic, 2 TBSP pesto of choice, and simmer it for awhile. Add the thawed shrimp and let them lightly brown. Remember to toss them so they don’t burn and not for too long bc you don’t want them to get rubbery. If you use more shrimp, just add more goodness --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wewerejustthinking/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/wewerejustthinking/support
