Doesn’t this thinking ignore the fact that either “consenting adult” could be asymptomatic, now you’ve passed it to one/other and could be actively passing the virus to others outside the two of you? You’re now going outside the ring of “2 consenting adults” and possibly sharing virus with other, unknown 3rd parties.

Honestly - and I know this is quite opposite for many of you - I rarely even hire or feel comfortable doing overnights. Let alone a long term Covid live-in Mintboy! When I got married many many years ago I told my spouse “marriage is fine but having a roommate is going to be a problem...” and this proved true ten years later when I became single again. I’ve lived alone the majority of my adult life, and I’m ok with that.

I found these stats from the New York City official website encouraging.....check the bar graph cases/hospitalizations/deaths https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/covid/covid-19-data.page Isn’t this THE HOTSPOT?

I’ll be darned yeast from potatoes. Makes sense, when I brewed my sourdough starter 10-12 years ago I put some organic black grapes into the flour/water mix for the first week or so. Supposedly the natural yeasts on the grapes got my starter “started”.

So mail it with no return address. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Even if sending electronically be sure and include your forum “handle“. When I sent via cashapp at first didn’t know who it was who donated until I emailed them and confirmed my user name

I already was getting a pretty close to the scalp cut....so I set my adjustable beard trimmer to “5” and took it to hair! First try pretty good, but when I shampooed I could feel uneven spots. Tried/trimmed again the next morning, got an acceptable result??

Options to donate here PayPal info is there, but not a preferred option.

Yes it’s strong and quite smokey at the end of the roast...there are a few that enjoy the smell of roasting coffee beans. I do not. I have a high power hood over my range and would place my Behmor Roaster under that...but it’s not enough. I roast outside now. I know that’s a limitation for some.

Well I know I’m an oddball....but I buy green coffee beans from all over the world and roast them myself about twice a week, then grind roasted beans per cup, and use a pour over filter cup by cup. Might be one of the few food-crazy things I do that actually saves money after amortizing the cost of the roaster. I rarely pay more than $6-7/pound for my green beans.

Jealous you found the wipes! It’s the one hole in my pantry that’s driving me nuts.

I just got back from running some errands and getting a doc notarized. My pharmacy offering curb side pick up! Pulled in to the yellow loading zone in front of the pharmacy, give them a call on the phone with my name and a gentleman came out with my two prescription refills and took my cash I let him keep the change and I was on my way everybody wearing masks and gloves. Small Mexican market chain here in Los Angeles area called Numero Uno. Not as large or widespread as Northgate which is a bigger Mexican speciality market, but there’s a Numero Uno very close to my house. I must say this is my second visit here during the pandemic, and they are pretty well stocked on all the supplies like toilet paper, paper towels, bleach, that are hard to find elsewhere. The prices are no bargain, but I got things I needed plus a couple Mexican spices and specialties for some cooking I’m doing. They had a security guard checking for masks and gloves and funneling everybody into one entrance. Plenty of social distancing enforced at the checkout lines. My local butcher shop was open, all the gents there wearing gloves and masks...was really fun shopping there for the first time in weeks. “Where have you been??” they all shouted in unison when I walked in!

Should be safe in freezer and ok to use ??

Very difficult. All apocalyptic baking supplies like flour and yeast have been next to impossible to get. I use my own sourdough starter for breads, but use yeast for aforementioned pizza dough. Even supply of whole wheat berries to “grind your own” have been in shorter supply. Like hand sanitizer and masks...I have found some of my orders made online for flour… Get self canceled! I found a 50# bag of high quality bread flour online finally yesterday and it shipped via UPS, my brother and a couple others will divvy this up with me. Yes freezes well and never gets bugs!

Today I made semolina bread and croissant dough from own sourdough/leavain. All ferments overnight. Will continue with croissant tomorrow and bake the semolina bread. Made some almond flour shortbread cookies. Fed the sourdough starter. All done fully clothed ?

Frozen pizza makes me shudder. I make my own pizza dough from scratch using Italian Tipo 00 flour and never look back.

I get soooooo tired of the “buy him a sandwich” here in The Spa and elsewhere on the forum. If a provider isn’t your type, move on. How is commenting on your personal opinion of a person’s physique helpful in moving a topic forward. Thanks @Dmitri

I’ve had two different couples offer me a live “show”. I could sit back with mask/etc., protected across the room while they put on live sex show with proper social distancing.

We SoCal babies love us our See’s! I had a very close friend always touted Helen Grace chocolate here in SoCal...not the same! My senior dad who is always looking for a legitimate reason to break his Covid isolation....wanted to go to See’s a day before Easter....luckily we caught him and kept him know the stores were closed!

Or just don’t watch porn at a public library ??‍♂️

I have the hots for Kenny in his shorts all the time.

I just started watching Line of Duty streaming on Prime. I’m into season 3 and and really liking it. British police show centered around their Anti Corruption unit.
