Why would chocolate chips be a must-have item? I understand you like 'em but others? That's a demand?

In other news, the helper told me she found everything she needs at the market.

I like Caress.

Bar soap I like Yardley Oatmeal Almond soap. I liked it even better before they added the almond.

Just before this started I had ordered Yardley Oatmeal Almond soap in a pump for me. Keith doesn't like it. Once we found the Coconut scent of Method I began alternating which soap I use as I have to buy the Yardley pump bottles on line.

Baking. People are baking at home, which is why I didn't expect these to be the first to go.

While I was pouting in front of the chocolate a man told me he needed flour and there wasn't any. I felt worse for him though I really do not want to deal with a chocolate withdrawal.

Jane · « **Reply #65 on:** March 17, 2020, 12:30:39 PM »

Now I know I might not be able to get more chocolate I should be able to control how much I eat better than usual. I want this to last.

Interesting item from a well-respected doctor at UCLA - Advice from UCLA Emergency Department physician, and a most dear and extraordinary person, Dr. Mark Morocco.

"Well social media friends, I'm out. This is a storm, not a hurricane -- you can ride it out: stay inside, be kind and calm to each other, use common sense and stay away from doctor's offices and Emergency departments UNLESS YOU ARE 'can't get out of bed' sick. Fever? Cough? Sore throat? Body aches? Mask and self isolate. Stay at home. Ride it out with tylenol or motrin and plenty of fluids. Call your doctor before you call 911 or leave the house when sick. Use the time positively to gather and love those you live with. If you live alone, call a neighbor or friend daily for 'wellness checks.' RIDE IT OUT while we work it out as far away from you as you can be. BE KIND, BE SMART, BE PATIENT. We appreciate you thinking of us in the ED, and know that we are thinking of you, and appreciate you're doing your part by staying in and staying away. See you on the other side."

I think more and more should do exactly what he and I have done - stay away from social media AND any media that is hell bent on causing panic and hysteria, which they do because that's what they do - clicks and ratings. They don't care about anything else.

Good advice from the doctor. It would be nice though if testing was easily done.

I forgot to mention, while fred Meyer was busy it was not the zoo we saw on Saturday. I did notice people distancing better since there was plenty of room to do so.

They did not expect the Ghirardelli 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate Chips to be the first chocolate chips to disappear off of the shelves. They had everything else. Of course that is what I wanted. When I eat these I eat less chocolate overall.

They didn’t have the Ghirardelli 92%, my favorite.

Keith ordered photos on line to be developed at Walgreens. Tomorrow we will pick them up. I need to send a good friend, that can't use email or texting anymore, a photo of Freyja and the good news of her birth. I have a birthday card to put the photo in.

I worry about my good friend as she is in a nursing care facility. I do hope her family can visit her on her birthday.

Just sent this eBlast:

Hello, wonderful and loyal customers. As much as it pains me to have to do this, we have to take a bit of a break due to what's happening in the world. It will get better and hopefully sooner than later. This will, of course, delay shipping - I think we've only been late on shipping by a few days once since we opened our doors. Pressing plants are down and so are the printers, but our shipping department (well, our shipping person) needs to stay healthy and safe, too. We realize that it's irritating on certain levels, but we hope you'll all be patient and understanding, as we all must be right now.

We're trying to at least get the last of our orders out that we have in stock, but that will stop after today. It's hard to predict how long this will go on, but I'm a cockeyed optimist and keeping positive thoughts, always.

You can still order CDs and books at this time, which would actually be very helpful to all us labels. They just won't ship for a couple of weeks.

Please stay safe and look towards the light. Don't fall prey to panic and hysteria. Perhaps take a break from Facebook

We'll keep you updated and please know how thankful we all are for your loyalty and business.

Been cleaning a little, since she of the Evil Eye wasn't here on Saturday and won't be here for two weeks.

I got home from my trip and immediately took a hot bath. Everything went smoothly until I got to Columbus Circle. I lost my balance stepping off the curb and fell backward onto the sidewalk. A very kind youngish gentleman with a foreign accent helped me up by the time the taxi driver had come to my rescue. I treaded very delicately after that.

So, because of the rain, I ended up with a completely wet backside from the fall and on my way home from the doctor I got more wet waiting for a bus at 57th Street. I thought the hot bath would help.

Oh. I hope you don't have to go out again for awhile.

No pain from the fall vibes!

~~~Ditto and Ditto!!~~~
