Groceries and Covid-19 Humor

I spent yesterday afternoon, three or four hours, working on a mask.  I'm pretty dang sure I picked the most complicated mask pattern on the internet.  On the good side, I actually looked at all of my sewing machine's presser feet and discovered that I do have a top stitching foot.  That was good since 90% of the sewing involved top stitching seems.  Since elastic is no long easily available, we're going with long shoe laces to affix the mask to one's head.  You run the shoelace through the channel next to the ear.  It will be interesting to see how it works. 

Here is mine, made out of a cheerful fish pattern, with a flannel liner.  I'm using a pipe cleaner to get the nose piece to stay curved.

I really miss having a dedicated sewing room with a craft table and a table for the machine and drawers for all of my stuff.

Note the teeny tiny ironing board.  It folds down and hangs on a closet rod.

The cactus bloom is beginning.  This is a trichocereus in our neighbor's yard.  These are so impressive.

Here are some Covid-19 related things from the internet.  I'm not even going to start in on how stupid the governor of Georgia is, he just learned that Covid-19 is transmissible by people who are not symptomatic.  Has he been under a rock?

Another genius.

We went to Fry's this morning, apparently they had just gotten a truck.  They were in a shelf stocking frenzy.  It's a big grocery store, it takes awhile for us to find things.  We took the first load home and went to Safeway, who has a lot more on the shelves than they did, for the all important extra crispy crinkle cut french fries.  Now we are going to make a vat of red sauce so that we know what's for dinner for at least two nights.  Still no sign of toilet paper anywhere.

Update to post:  Me!  In my mask.  It works better with real glasses than with readers, but it's ok.
