My friend in Des Moines has been furloughed for the week. He will be furloughed two more weeks in the near future. Three weeks on, one week off is better than four weeks off.

They had big bins full of hand sanitizer in the front of the store but I actually am ok with that as I already had several bottles in the house before all this started

Our 24 hour stores cut their hours

Every time we drive to Florida I buy a bottle for the car, then we us maybe an 8th if the bottle and when I get home I put it away.

vixmom · « **Reply #160 on:** May 01, 2020, 09:53:29 PM »

Then when we plan the next trip I forget we already have some and I buy it again

My forgetfulness stood me in good stead

I always buy hand sanitizer to use after jail visits. They don't clean those places very often. I still have some at the office

Also when the dollar store down the block was closing down I bought a dozen bottles of soft soap

vixmom · « **Reply #164 on:** May 01, 2020, 09:55:02 PM »

So that was helpful

When we were last on Florida we visited a speciality store that had all sorts of flavored olive oils and vinegars.

I completely forgot about the stuff I bought there and just noticed it in the cabinet tonight

vixmom · « **Reply #167 on:** May 01, 2020, 09:57:14 PM »

So dinner tonight was chicken breast cooked in black truffle infused olive oil

vixmom · « **Reply #168 on:** May 01, 2020, 09:58:41 PM »

accompanied by sautéed onion, mushroom and grape tomatoes with a dash of the same oil and some sunny Paris seasoning

vixmom · « **Reply #169 on:** May 01, 2020, 09:59:01 PM »

How I love that salt free blend!

vixmom · « **Reply #170 on:** May 01, 2020, 09:59:08 PM »

And rice pilaf

vixmom · « **Reply #171 on:** May 01, 2020, 09:59:24 PM »

The chicken was outstanding

vixmom · « **Reply #172 on:** May 01, 2020, 10:00:07 PM »

The other olive oil I bought is infused with blood oranges...I’m thinking that might be nice on pork....

vixmom · « **Reply #173 on:** May 01, 2020, 10:01:10 PM »

I also bought a chocolate infused vinegar..perhaps a little mixed with the blood orange olive oil would make a nice salad dressing...

In completely unrelated news, all my clothes seemed to have shrunk in the wash

vixmom · « **Reply #175 on:** May 01, 2020, 10:02:29 PM »

Dang I forgot to charge my iPad. I’m down to 6%

vixmom · « **Reply #176 on:** May 01, 2020, 10:02:41 PM »

I may disappear without warning

It open at 6 am for old people shopping, opens to the rest of the populace at 7
