If they're outside with the boys, they can bring the baby monitor and hear when Ivy wakes up.

I really appreciate you explaining it. I had no idea there were different flours. I probably have the store generic brand all purpose; but next time I need some, I'll know what to look for.

I took a question over to Small Talk.

I didn't know how to get the post over here, so I hope this is ok. @Jynnan tonnix - I'm not much of a baker, but I started following a cake decorator on Instagram (@neuroticmom) and she posted a recipe for cinnamon rolls that I decided to try. They turned out very tasty and I'm thinking of trying a soft pretzel recipe next. Why King Arthur flour? I don't know if I'd even be able to tell the difference, but I need all the help I can get! I don't even have a stand mixer and have borrowed my DIL's to see if it's something I'd like.

I belong to a facebook group that is about 3,000 members from my town. I really thought I lived in an area that would have no problem complying. Nope - A LOT claim their rights are being violated and that if we're scared to get the virus, then WE should stay home, but they think everything should open up.

Yes, people have gone mad. Some seniors from the high school were protesting at my town's "downtown". The group looked like the epitome of white privilege and in reading the thread posted on facebook, most of their mommies were heartily defending their right to protest. IMO - they were mad they didn't get their senior sendoff. Too bad. I saw this posted somewhere else. "If you expect elementary school children to endure the trauma of active shooter drills for your freedoms, you can wear a mask to Costco. "

I think you all would understand. I had to place 2 grocery orders because my regular store doesn't offer alcohol for curbside pickup. Walmart does, but they were out of stock when I picked up my order. I went to the store just before they closed and picked up 2 bottles of margaritas and some Mike's hard lemonade. I'm trying to alternate between hard liquor and malt beverages so it doesn't seem like I'm drinking all of the time. Walmart also has those theater size candy available so I have Mild Duds and Mike and Ike's too.

I found the Leslie Odom version; it was probably uploaded later. https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/11979033/hamilton-star-sings-ynwa-in-nfl-draft

Or not finished and it's missing grout completely.

This was wonderful!! May I share it with a friend? Not via social media, just someone I know who would be be screaming - she gets it!!!

My DIL works in purchasing for a hospital and said they can’t take any donations of masks that are sewn. The needle holes from sewing is the reason. Virus can get in those microscopic holes. Their masks use glue. Who is using the homemade masks? My other DIL sewed our family some masks that we’ll use for going to the store, but not hospital grade.

My DIL made masks for me, DH and my brother and SIL. She bought shop towels that we can insert. Here's where she got the idea. She said the towels are re-washable twice. https://www.businessinsider.com/homemade-mask-using-hydro-knit-shop-towel-filters-better-2020-4

Thank you so much for this!! I took my family to see this with Donny Osmond and am looking forward to reliving it!

I just had my math major DH confirm it!. If we're reading our county information correctly, we have 6.6 per 10,000. A suburb of Chicago. So population high, but still suburban and not dense like a city.

I think your county is only 1 in 10,000. Maybe someone can double check my math.

For anyone working from home, a friend sent this to me. My son and DIL say they’ve had most of these things today!!

Here is something to entertain us. I hope more artists share this types of event. https://twitter.com/johnlegend/status/1239666268627546112?s=21

Our library has closed for at least the next 2 weeks and we can't even drop off our books. We switched to no fines a while ago and I tend to hold onto books a little longer. Maybe I'll actually get them finished by the time they're open again.

I rarely feel sorry for influencers losing gigs, beliefs aside. Some day, people will think for themselves and not need every piece of clothing or makeup that someone else recommends.

I hope anyone who has family in nursing homes is able to teach them how to use FaceTime on the phone. It's a reminder to me to try and keep up with technology in case I'm isolated. I hate facetime as I hate the way I look on screen (or pictures), but I haven't been able to see my 2.5 year old granddaughter so I'm giving it a try this week.

I had good news and bad news. Good is that both my sons offered to do any grocery shopping or errands we needed. Bad news is it's because I'm in the "fragile" age group. I'm 64 and still feel young! I even babysit my twin 14 month old grandsons for one of them. It's going to be interesting. Son I babysit for will be working from home for 3 weeks so my hours will be shorter since I won't have to be there for their commute time. My DIL works for a major health system and is part of the team that gets supplies; specifically surgical. She has been swamped with finding suppliers of masks, gowns, sanitizer. I did go out yesterday just to get some normal shopping done and I found it fascinating to see what people were buying. I don't get the bottled water as we have fine tap water. I also saw someone buying about a year's worth of coffee. What have you all seen that struck you as odd? (besides toilet paper!)

Maybe I’m reading this wrong, but it looks the passengers will be quarantined for 14 more days.

Do you mean the Grand Princess? Isn't Diamond the one that was stuck in Japan?

What is Henry's middle name? Weird she'd hashtag one full name and not the other.
