The COVID Chronicles #64: The COVID Community Salad Bar

 Wife and I were doing our weekly shop at the nearest Fry's Marketplace yesterday when we noticed this new kind of "salad bar"...




This is the greatest "salad bar" in all the land!

Lenten Fast Post #3

On Saturday, I fasted all day. I did have a breakfast in the morning after sunrise b/c I legitimately felt hungry, so I had 1/2 cup of instant oatmeal, some blueberries, an apple, 3 dates, and a banana. I did not eat again until well after sundown when I got some chicken nuggets and chicken fries from Burger King b/c I was waiting on a locksmith to let me in house b/c I had locked myself out.  Sundays are "feast days" in the Methodist tradition so I had a balanced breakfast and then did not eat until after 7pm, when I had spaghetti, salad, and 4 St. Louis style ribs.  I have eaten nothing today, so I'm very much looking forward to dinner, which I expect will be a roasted potato cubed with carrots, leftover ribs, and a salad. Prior to the breaking of the fast, I will of course offer up a prayer and then break the fast.  All for today.

Then I lit a fire of dried grassroots (that were still very wet in the middle):

Theft

I consider myself lucky to not have been the victim of too many crimes in my lifetime and I feel this is because I have not had the misfortune of residing in areas with high crime rates. Flagstaff, Japan, Bullhead City, and now Bisbee.  In high school, someone thought it would be funny to put orange cones on my pick-up while it was parked along the street one night while my mom, sister, and I were out to dinner. In college, someone stole the CD player w/ car combo (remember those?) and some other items in the glove box out of my pick-up overnight, but that was my fault because I left it unlocked. I think someone also tried to steal the pick-up once and damaged the steering column, but that's another story all together. In Japan I never worried about theft and often left the door to my apartment unlocked for days a time. In Bullhead City, I think someone keyed the side of the Yukon, perhaps a student at the school I worked at who perceived I did them wrong in some way.  On Th
