I placed an online order for delivery from a third local grocery, which was supposed to arrive on Wednesday. For whatever reason, they delivered it yesterday. Luckily it was primarily shelf stable staples so not a problem. Many, many substitutions. I ordered some DeCecco pasta for my nephew, and they delivered a brand I have never heard of instead. I hope it is good because now I have six pounds of it.

We had burgers last night. My husband and nephew each had a waygu burger and a hot dog from Heritage Foods. My sister, niece and I do not eat beef burgers so I made us a quinoa-cannelini bean-chipotle chile burger topped with carmelized onions. They were tasty. The burger buns were homemade. Waffle fries from a bag 🙂

My sister made a scramble for the adults with all of the little bits of vegetables she found in my crisper: broccoli, red onion, mushroom, tomato etc. Tasty and a way to use up some stuff at a time when we are trying not to waste anything.

i have successfully frozen clams. I steam them open, shuck, and cover them in the cooking liquid then freeze. They are goo for things like clam pizza, linguini and clams etc.

I baked up a batch of English muffins that I started yesterday Egg bacon and cheese sandwich that I made for my husband. I ate breakfast when I woke up so am going to have one of the muffins for lunch

Steamed soy-ginger haddock with cilantro and hot peppers with a cabbage salad also dressed with soy and ginger and rice

I got a food order delivered to my house this morning. I received everything on my list with the exception of chicken, yeast, a type of cereal my nephew wanted, and flour. After trying for days, I was able to get a delivery order from Wegmans' set for Sunday evening. Trying again for chicken, but not optimistic. I finally bit the bullet and paid $20 for a pound of yeast on amazon. I also joined a local farm's vegetable share, which delivers to my house starting next Thursday. I can't imagine they have much yet other than greenhouse lettuces and maybe overwintered root vegetables, but it is better than nothing and supports a local farm. King Arthur Flour has their flour back in stock, FYI. Limit two per person.

I just picked up my first curbside order from Wegman's. Order online, and they bring it out and load into your trunk. I was able to get everything I asked for with the exception of chicken. Well, she did throw in one package of boneless chicken thigh cutlets (I did not even know those were a thing), but it is not enough to feed everyone that it staying at my house right now so I put them in the freezer for later, when more chicken is acquired. My list was vegetable heavy and cleaning supply/tp free, which might be why I had such luck. You cannot order wine for curbside but they will deliver it to your house so that is arriving tomorrow. It was exactly noon as my husband and I left, and Trillium brewery is on our route home, so we stopped there and stocked up on good beer. Others were arriving at the same time, but everyone played nice and stood six feet apart. No kids, no coughing people. Husband wore a glove to work the card reader. My next order is coming from another local grocery that will deliver to the house and leave everything in your garage. I'm going to compare the two and decide which I like best for the long haul ahead.
