Just came from a brisk walk in the countryside and the air smelled so fresh,yet felt quite cold and my nose picked up the fragrance of burning firewood.I saw a few deer at the edge of some trees near the field and a hawk I think circling up high probably looking for a breakfast meal.It was a peaceful time and a magical moment between me and nature!

Just finished dinner ... had a late physical therapy session but the good news was , no trouble parking -- the parking lots were pretty empty. I washed my hands twice while I was there and they were spraying down the equipment every time someone touched it, so I felt perfectly fine going. I'm still not in panic mode, but that's probably because I don't watch or read the news much AND I rarely check any of my stock-market accounts ...
Anyway, dinner was great -- pork tenderloin tonight. I decided to go REALLY easy on myself and use Shake & Bake (yep!) -- I've used their parmesan-crusted flavor on chicken before but never on pork tenderloin. I DIDN'T bake -- just coated the pork medallions (a bit less than 1/2" thick each, I think -- total 5.5 ounces) with the mix, then cooked the medallions on the stovetop as usual -- took all of 5 minutes. (I LIKE that kind of cooking! )
Had the pork with four of my usual veggies (carrots, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes -- I'm almost out of most of these, too!) plus a couple of ounces of sliced potatoes. Everything was delicious.
Almra your walk sounds peaceful and refreshing!
Karen your dinner looks wonderful as always. There's always a silver lining of we look for it!
I love going out to eat and I have friends/relatives in the industry. I am not a fan of restaurant take out though. Here in Massachusetts restaurants are shut down except take out and delivery. I feel so awful for the small independent restaurants and their staff. So we ordered take out from our favourite sushi place tonight.
