You gotta see this....
Was planning on hot dogs for dinner. But the dogs taken from freezer this morning were fig & feta chicken sausages. So a quick swap of sauerkraut for homemade red onion jam. Super pleased with my 1st ever attempt and without a recipe. Secret ingredient on the to-be-repeated onion jam: coconut aminos.
Yummy

Swedish People's Health Authority: "A vaccine can not replace other measures and will not on its own stop the pandemic."
A vaccine will be an important tool in the toolbox, though looking at how the virus spreads and behaves we need all the other mitigating tools too. Wash your hands, don't touch your face, wear a mask, social distancing, tracing, testing and so forth.

Found it (or something credible on the same subject). And I had it backward -- the cause is less ethanol fuel refining, and the effect is also hitting beer production.
"Most of the ethanol produced in the US is blended into gasoline and used as a fuel. As a result, CO2 supplies is linked to fuel demand and production."
I read something about this a month or 2 ago, but don't remember where. Those rechargable CO2 cartridges you used to be able to exchange at Target, Best Buy, etc. -- SodaStream refills. Why is it they're so scarce now?
Is it that CO2 is a by-product of making beer and with bars closed, less beer is selling/being made? Am I remembering this all wrong?
The audacity of Trumpie is unfathomable...
“We will not be tyrannized, we will not be demeaned, and we will not be intimidated by bad, evil people,” Mr. Trump said, referring to his political opponents and their supporters.
And as an American, I will say to Trump...
WE WILL NOT BE TYRANNIZED BY YOU, WE WILL NOT BE DEMEANED BY YOU, AND WE WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY YOU, YOU BAD, EVIL PERSON.

Here’s the simplest of steps: Wear a face mask.
The White House press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, deflects questions about Trump and masks by insisting that mask-wearing is simply a “personal choice.”
No, it’s not. Refusing to wear a mask is no more a “personal choice” than is drinking all evening and then stumbling into your car and heading down the road. In a time of plague, shunning a face mask is like driving drunk, putting everyone in your path in danger.
