CoVID-19
Our main issue is produce. We have to go about once a week for veggies. I have learned that Safeway (we only have Safeway and a smaller IGA across town) is ok early. But after 3, it's a shit show.
We have ordered take out trying to support places we love both in town and in Portland proper. But Wednesday night was a disaster, so we might not be taking out as much now.
I can cook, cleaning up after however is a real challenge.
I made enchiladas last weekend, everything from scratch. Holy hell, I tried to clean as I went but I dirtied half my kitchen, filled the dishwasher (mine is tiny) and still had a full sink of dishes to clean. The whole process took hours, next time I am just getting most of the components pre-made.
All the better for those of us who know. We have a pretty much unlimited supply of chanterelles and boletes. When grape harvest is early and we can get into the mtns before it snows we get Matutake as well. Nothing finer than Matutake grilled over charcoal until they just start to sweat. No oil and touch of sel gris.
It is fern & nettle season here now. Lot's of good eats to be had in the woods.
There was a food tv show way back where a ‘celebrity chef’ would just drop on by some unsuspecting viewer’s house, and produce a ‘gourmet’ meal out of whatever was in their cupboards. It was ‘reality TV’, so probably all bullshit, but it was kind of fun, as cooking shows go.

I should come to your house and you can make me dinner.
Mind you - those are only the meals I cook when things get DESPERATE. When the pantry is stocked... look out.I should come to your house and you can make me dinner.
COVID-19 Antibody Seroprevalence in Santa Clara County, California
Background Addressing COVID-19 is a pressing health and social concern. To date, many epidemic projections and policies addressing COVID-19 have been designed without seroprevalence data to inform epidemic parameters. We measured the seroprevalence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in Santa Clara...
www.medrxiv.org
Population weighted prevalence of COVID antibodies in Santa Clara County, California, of 2.81% as assessed on 4/3/20 and 4/4/20. Imperfect tests and all, sure, but far from herd immunity at this point.
You mean it's likely going to go horribly wrong when everyone thinks they can go back to work next week?COVID-19 Antibody Seroprevalence in Santa Clara County, California

But the mango king said some states can open up starting yesterday!?
mango wants to reopen the canaderp border. I wonder what will be the mango's ultimatum when our PM says no.

Not knowing how to cook is seriously one of the dumbest fucking things i have ever heard.
GTFO
You really should visit the states sometime and see this place for yourself. You’ll probably want to move here but will feel compelled to hit yourself in the face with a hammer for doing so.
That's different.
I wouldn’t let those diseased, asshole yanks in either.
Dude, Ive travelled all over the world for 11 years straight.
Dated a couple chicks from the US for a quite a while (not at the same time) and met a metric ton of Americans while living in Panama.
But the main thing that stops me from wanting to live in the US is having been on these forums for almost 20 years now.
You guys scare me to death
on the weekly EMS Covid19 Call. Most of the Calif Deaths are from Skilled Nursing Facilities and their lack of understanding of Infection control and proper PPE use. Which has been my experience in 12 years of going into those facilities. The staff are mostly folks that would not be hired by anyone else due to their general stupidity. low pay overcrowding and general lack of training. ALCO EMS and Public health have made it a point to go in and retrain the Staff at all the Skilled Nursing Facilities in the county. If we can get it through their heads we may not have the expected surge here in the Bay Area. Right Now we have plenty of hospital space and ventilators in ICU. Stay Isolated wash your hands and wear a mask.
Been trying to learn Facebook ads by trying to sell this t-shirt. not as easy as it seems.
