Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 Bring a large pot of salty water to boil and cook the pasta until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta cooking water before draining. 2 In the meantime, steam the broccoli or broccolini until tender. Alternatively, add it into the pasta water for the last few minutes of cooking. 3 Return the pasta to the empty pot and add olive oil, lemon juice, and half of lemon zest, tossing to coat. Add broccoli, goat cheese, and half of oregano. Heat over low heat while stirring until goat cheese melts, adding reserved pasta water as necessary to create a silky sauce that coats the noodles.

Food Joke

The housewife answered a knock on the door and found a total stranger standing on the doorstep. "Excuse me for disturbing you, ma'am," he said politely, "but I pass your house every morning on my way to work, and I've noticed that every day you appear to be hitting your son on the head with a loaf of bread." "That's right." "Every day you hit him on the head with a loaf of bread, and yet this morning you were beating him with a chocolate cake." "Well, today is his birthday."
