Turkey Meat Loaf and Oven Roasted Potatoes with Garden Salad

 Quarantine supper tonite...   Live from NYC...

Another gray day...  sun abandoning the Big Apple...  low clouds morphing into drizzle by late afternoon...  heavy rain ensuing by nightfall...   wet leaves plastered onto sidewalks...   collecting in soggy piles blocking catch basins...  squirrels and birds silently enduring the drip drip of another rainy day.  Folks hustling along sidewalks...  shoulders hunched into collars pulled up against the drops...  brightly colored umbrellas... a visual respite from the dull drab surroundings.


Market day...  dashing between the drops...  into the empty store to collect groceries for the weeks meals...  shaking off the rain like a damp puppy...   virtually no one about...  still finding it difficult to locate items in the newly refurbished and reorganized aisles...  returning home... the hubs...  reclining...  leg elevated...  fresh off a call with his kids.  Time to unpack the goodies and prep supper.


Turkey loaf dressed with ketchup and sriracha for a little poke...  oven roasted potatoes...  applesauce...  crisp garden salad with greenhouse tomatoes (December...  still enjoying tomatoes from our harvest...  woo hoo) and a lovely glass of Cabernet Sauvignon...  first glass for the hubs since surgery...  eaten at the kitchen table!!  He even watched the news on the couch for a bit before returning to bed...  progress!!  


New Covid cases rose today by 9853...  almost 10,000 newly reported cases each day...  275,000 souls lost to this virus 🦠 now the number one cause of death in America...  wear your mask...  limit personal interactions only with  your household...  and wash those germy hands 💕😷

How was your day?   What’s on your plate?   Thoughts?
