The Obamas recently shook the media table when it was announced they had entered into a huge production deal with Netflix. Now, a Beverly Hills lunch meeting between Kerry Washington and Michelle Obama has folks speculating on whether they're cooking up one of the first creative projects. 

On Washington's way out of Spago Beverly Hills, TMZ stopped her to ask whether the meetup was about business or pleasure.

Washington deftly avoided the question, of course, responding with, “Oh, how are you today?”

The TMZ reporter also asked which one of the powerful ladies paid the bill, and the actress simply wished him a "good day."

Aside from her coy response having us on the edge of our seats, the simple image of the two ladies together was a wonderful image of black excellence.

It's important to note Washington's former Shondaland peeps are over at Netflix, too. 

About the Netflix deal, the Obamas released a press release on the day of the announcement stating, "One of the simple joys of our time in public service was getting to meet so many fascinating people from all walks of life, and to help them share their experiences with a wider audience. That’s why Michelle and I are so excited to partner with Netflix — we hope to cultivate and curate the talented, inspiring, creative voices who are able to promote greater empathy and understanding between peoples, and help them share their stories with the entire world.”
