Any positives in stir?

In response to your post here that I just removed...it would take a bit more to get banned but it did somewhat violate one of the very few rules we have here - no politics. Its just something we don't discuss here. I've also edited your signature line so we don't ruin this one refuge...need you here ….hope it is OK with you...I rarely edit this way.
I understand the need to speak out and I know this is the only place online some of us post...but otherwise if you are on facebook...I think there is a thread around here where you can post your page link. maybe you can get some folks paying attention there. To keep the peace here, it would be appreciated if you keep contributing but not stir the pot.
I actually believe we have some of the world's smartest amongst us here and can fix a lot of problems together, but this isn't the place. Thanks Jane

A good, long break from any Harry & Megan news stories.....

Good practice for retirement - at least we've found out at home we can put up with each other all day for more than 10 weeks.

Found out after 4 weeks of furlough that there are some jobs in the work place that are independent of Microsoft and that nearly 40 years of employment are not entirely wasted like a Golgafrincham 2nd space shipper…. (Read your Douglas Adams - Hitch Hiker's Guide...)

Still gathering new recipes and avoiding restaurants or their takeout like the plague (sorry, no pun intended). I really feel bad for folks that cannot cook or don't have time to cook. Other than the regular 40 hour work week I have plenty of time to research recipes and cook something new. So instead of wasting money on takeout food I found a place in Kentucky that sells some great American Wagyu beef, Black Hawk Farms. Family owned and operated since 2013 when they decided to switch to the hybrid Wagyu. I am not advertising for them but I really like beef and so many other sites like Snake River are very expensive and seems like always out of certain items.
So on Saturday I made the $18 meatloaf with 2 pounds of their ground Wagyu. My son really isn't big on meatloaf of any kind, he turned his nose up until he stuck a piece in his mouth. I kept it very simple not wanting to overpower the flavor of the meat, went with some fresh garlic, roasted red pepper, and a little fresh jalapeno along with some other seasonings, a few ritz crackers and one egg for binder. You could use all sorts of other stuff in it if you wanted. I noticed my son was back into the leftovers yesterday making a meatloaf sammich, that didn't take long.
So we just received another shipment last week and next up tomorrow night is the inside skirt steak with flour tortillas and black beans and who knows what else.
Take care all, protect yourself at all times, don't give in to the no mask theory expounded by many. Get to cooking and it will be time and money well spent, and a decent diversion to all of the shart going on.

Sorry Rick I didn't see this before. Yeah I'm too old to start that vegan diet but I appreciate that it's healthier. Not big on tofu however it's pretty good if stir fried and spicy. Hang in there, down a steak when you can work it in
