Cut in thin, 1/8" thick slices. Top with mashed potatoes, add a tablespoon of orange marmalade on top of the potatoes. Bake in the oven until the potatoes are slightly browned.

Hey, you beat me by eight seconds.
I never get a scoop around here!
Yes, I do love me my pressure cooker! I’ve made some elaborate meals for my daughters and their boyfriends with that thing in the past.
But now it’s just me and beans and rice is just fine. I stocked up on beans!
Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center notified that man who tested COVID19 positive was playing table tennis there
Today, 04:21 PM
Paddles sanitized, tables shut down for now.
Senior center notified of visit by someone who tested positive
It’s possible that attendees at an event at the Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center, a community gathering space in downtown Winslow, may have been exposed to the virus. Executive Director Reed Price said that the center had been notified on Monday that a man who had visited the building on Mach 2 for a table tennis event later tested positive for COVID-19. It’s not known if the man had the virus when he visited that day, Price said.
...
Price said the center was looking at ways to help those who might feel isolated to stay connected over the internet: “Even if it comes to the point where it looks like the wise thing to do is shut the door, we’re not going to shut down the operation,” he said.
Not one bit surprised...people can be animals..
It will get worse if this thing doesnt turn around soon.
As of now, they are counting these as snow days (to be made up in June). Most colleges have already gone virtual, hopefully the el-hi community will follow suit.
Managed to get the 3x Majors with kids in the office to listen to an old Soldier with a Service Ribbon from the 2d Battle of New Orleans. The Colonels can’t focus for more than 45 seconds at a time, don’t like that this is interfering with their very important “priorities”, and are a lost cause.
from Dr. Seheult’s video, and a NOT PEER REVIEWED study:
“overall stability is very similar between HCOV-19 and SARS-COV-1. We found that viable virus could be detected in aerosols up to 3 hours post-aerosolization; up to 4 hours on copper, up to 24 hours on cardboard and up to 2-3 days on plastics and stainless steel. HCOV-19 and SARS-COV-1 exhibited similar half-lives in aerosols with median estimates around 2.7 hours. Both viruses show relatively long viability on stainless steel and polypropylene compared to copper or cardboard; the median half-life estimate for HCOV-19 is around 13 hours on steel and around 16 hours on polypropylene.”
Question: does positive flow ventilation spread virus to HCWs?
Dr Michael Odterholm, U of MN, just blasted the Trump doc....Seena Verma....who refused to answer Tucker, about the respirator situation, as one of the most incompetent interviews he’s ever heard....after working for numerous administrations, himself.
He said this is like triage, on a battlefield, with the military. And, we don’t need double talk.
Why are we now just coming up with these plans, after knowing about this situation, for 6 - 8 weeks. He’s deeply disturbed...and, wants to know, Who is in charge??

Coronavirus “cluster” at Uptown New Orleans retirement home growing bigger, authorities respond
BY JOHN SIMERMAN | STAFF WRITER MAR 13, 2020 - 6:20 PM
The tally of elderly residents reported positive for COVID-19 reached nine at the Lambeth House retirement home in Uptown New Orleans on Friday, more than doubling over a day even as test results on more than a dozen other residents awaited.
...
Independent-living residents normally come and go as they please, and as recently as Thursday, some continued their excursions off the gated grounds — for exercise, groceries, even haircuts, said the frustrated son of one elderly resident.

Really? SK had a huge number of positive 10-13 days ago, padding their numbers. Those cases are now moving toward "resolving". In just 3 days, their CFR, or "death rate" as you call it, has crept up to 0.9% It will continue to rise, probably settling at 1.2% - 1.5%. We will only be like South Korea if the actions we are taking are effective and people listen to the advice they are getting.
I’d never heard of a sauerkraut cake before. Looks like it gets rave reviews!

You’re great neighbors!
Floridians are experts at storm preparation. It is an annual ritual. We're giddy that we don't have to board up the windows and prep for electrical outages for COVID-19.

Trump said Walmart, Target and CVS would be setting up testing tents in their parking lots. Uh, huh, they think they may have CV so go to Wallyworld to get tested and decide they need to go into the store to buy tp. Sorry, I just wrote WM off my shopping destinations.
I am so sick of their nonsense and personal attacks. Getting fed up with it.
What you did is a good thing. Many people only have groceries for a week or two because that is what they can afford...sometimes because they choose to buy other things
But if you know you really need it..you might forgo a few of those other things you dont really need in order to get what you do need
A friend of mine heard a version of that more than once in the store today.
She told me that there were a lot of dazed looking people...just stunned at what they were seeing with shelves cleared.
“follow up based on responses. Many people are saying there’s a huge amount of uncounted mortality due to pneumonia. The @CDCgov tracks this, and we don’t yet see this in the data (https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/#S2 ). I expect #COVID19 to start to show up here, but it hasn’t yet”
