Well that's new

Some comfort food to enjoy as Mad King Donald fiddles the country to ruin.

Until a few days ago I had never eaten or made a meatball sub. Those are pretty tasty. I can see myself eating more of those in the future. Although they are rather a bother unless you already have meatballs and baguette lying around. It's certainly comfort food. Food seems to be a very important comfort these days. Much needed.

Although as I get back into regular morning walkies, all the comfort food from the last few months is..... literally.... weighing on me. I really need to get back in shape. Get back to normal.

The Belgium trip in Oct is looking pretty dubious. Obviously we're not going to get Covid under control in 9 weeks. So it's unlikely the EU (actually nearly all countries at this point) will lift the ban on Americans. I'm starting to think about other options. I wonder if Hawaii is letting people in. Serbia? Antigua?

So back to comfort food. Maybe some homemade pizza today. I did the walkies thing, so I earned it.

Since people will text and ask : I'm fine. Other than the obvious Mad King Donald stuff I'm happy and healthy. Playing video games, rebuilding my playlists, planning a photo trip. Hoarding quarters.
