Worst April Fool's EVEREasy Weight Loss

Back in my day ::tucks Kleenex into sleeve:: April Fool's day involved putting salt in the sugar dish or something equally benign.  What the world has been going through for months now feels like some sort of horrible April Fool's joke gone terribly wrong.  Even the funny memes about bad coworkers (pets, usually) and students/teachers (suspending them for fighting, firing the teacher for drinking on the job) have become stale. 

Just when ennui was settling in, Blue Baker came to the rescue with online grocery shopping.  Yes, our favorite restaurant has found a way to stay in business by not only offering delivery and drive-thru pickup of their standard menu, but since they are continuing to get food from their supplier, they've started offering groceries and paper goods for sale.  Their online ordering menu for groceries gave me a good laugh when I read it, so I thought I'd share some of the gems with you:
Craving a banana. Got a tenner?  It's yours!
How about a bag of ice?  Sadly the rapper doesn't come with it.
Rice.  For when you want 2000 of something, LOL.
Well if they're laid by Chicken Little herself, sign me up for some eggs!
Punny.
I don't care.  They're your oats.  Ha!

And finally, BB to the rescue:
This ain't yo' Mama's Charmin but when in need...

I love that they have managed to pivot and not only keep their employees working, but are providing an alternative to traditional grocery shopping.  We've purchased a pound of fresh asparagus, milk, their homemade bread, ice, and some bagels so far.  We got to yell hello to our favorite employee, Patrick, from a safe distance of our car to the drive-thru window, which gave us a sense of normalcy in this world of uncertainty.  And while we don't need TP yet because I'd stocked up right before my parents visited in February, it's nice to know we have options.  In fact my neighbor drove by while I was sitting on the driveway watching Jeff clean out the garage; she rolled down her window and said she'd been on the hunt for TP with no luck.  I told her about Blue Baker and she was so grateful - with all three of her kids back home, she was hitting desperate times.

We can't wait to gather inside the restaurant with the rest of the Renegades and have breakfast and kibitz with each other, but in the meantime, we'll support BB as much as possible so they will be there when this awfulness is behind us.

Hope you all remain well.
