I hiked the mesa above El Malpaís National Monument on Sunday I noticed that parts of the sandstone trail were dark red It reminded me of the current COVID infection map of the U.S. I had a fleeting, fanciful thought that perhaps the earth itself was turning brick red to match the color of the hot spots This is all just to say that the COVID pandemic is never far from my mind

In pandemic we did online grocery. Sometime we assumed that we are ordering a small squash. But we got a whole squash. We did not know how to cut it. My husband challenged himself to cut the vegetable. But the knife slipped and he cut his finger. It was a big mess. He suffered for 2 weeks. That night his bleeding scared us. We went to urgent care to get Tetanus injection. He got good tight bandage. That time people were scared to go to hospital. It was really scary situation, But we learned a lot and became stronger every day. In one year we know how cut whole chicken, whole pumpkin and watermelon. We learned lot of kitchen skills.
