The Best Thing is our weekly discussion thread where we share the one thing that we read, listened to, watched, did, or otherwise enjoyed recently.
My best thing for the week is Puffs Plus Lotion tissues. I’m in the waning days of a cold and the only reason my nose isn’t rubbed raw is these tissues.

My most recent best thing was not a recipe that I made up, though that did turn out very well. It was figuring out a systematic way of putting together a recipe — a recipe checklist. I have now used it, and it works great. Details in this post with a downloadable copy of the checklist: https://leisureguy.wordpress.com/2023/04/10/broccolini-brussels/

I love a good checklist.
I love the story of how the checklist came about: http://www.atchistory.org/how-the-pilots-checklist-came-about-2/
I learned of this in a New Yorker article by Atul Gawande, who called for a hospital checklist: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2007/12/10/the-checklist (or, sans paywall, https://archive.ph/ktPmc )
