More of the same but it's fine

Every morning I check the King County Dashboard and see that more people are sick and more people are dead. This is my directive to stay right here in my safe little condo.

I do need to take trash/garbage/recycling down to the dumpsters today but that's all the farther I need to go. Next week will be different if only because the house cleaner is coming and I need to not be here. But, also because Krispy Kreme is going to up their game next week. All week a vaccination card will get you TWO donuts every day. And one of them shaped like a heart! But, until then, I'll be here.

My groceries showed up about 5:15 yesterday which really wasn't that far outside their original window. It was fine. And now I have new cakes to bake.

So I'll be baking a cake today and, maybe, cookies. My banana is ready. I might freeze it because I don't really need cake AND cookies.

For the past couple of days, I've been pulling biscuits out of the freezer and baking them for breakfast. This was a tip I got from meowmensteen and boy, was it a good one. Freezer to fresh hot biscuit in 20 mins. I then split them open, butter and broil them for another 5. I like crispy. Pop a fried (from my Dash griddle) egg on top and, honestly? It's the best breakfast in town.

And from delicious to disgusting... Last night I lathered up my feet with Aquaphor instead of Cerave because The Aquaphor is so much easier to handle. It's thicker and comes in a tube. The Cerave comes in a tub and is a mess to deal with. BUT, I gotta say, the results are kind of amazing. Cerave by a mile. I hate that because it's so expensive and such a mess to deal with but results, man. Results.

If you're interested, the other thing we do at work before we bake the frozen biscuits is top them with a bit more cheese. More cheese is always better.

I buy Elemis Oil to help with my pain. Discovered in on a cruise with my inlaws three years ago. The stuff is $60 a bottle but lasts from 4-6 months depending how much pain I'm having so worth it.

The biscuits sound amazing. And now I'm going to go make some.

Would something like a super-narrow, almost super-small rubber-and-silicone or all silicone spatula or spreader from the cookwares aisle of the local dollar store serve to get your Cerave out of the tub and onto your feet? (Although, you'd still use your hands, yes, to rub it into the skin?)

Over here in Kitsap, the emergency room at St. Michael's in Bremerton is still closed because of staffing issues — the options are St. Michael's in Silverdale, which has had people waiting 30 hours to get into a room, or St. Anthony's in Gig Harbor. At that point it's "get on the ferry and try to get to Seattle, it's about as fast and Harborview has better treatment options".
