Big hands ... big heart. Yeah, let’s go with that.The reason why I asked is because a week or so ago I took a friend to the Farmers Market in Raleigh. There she bought a 4 oz bottle of hand sanitizer for $5.00. A price that I thought, at the time, was price gouging. Of course one has to remember that I have never bought hand sanitizer in my life. It still seems unreal that anyone would think an expensive bottle of that would be any protection at all. One would have to take a bath in it (full body) to have any impact at all and then remain naked. Our hands are only a small percentage of our bodies (unless you are @JenniferS, sorry Jennifer I just couldn't resist). We still have all the rest of our bodies, our clothes and everything that we touch. In order to cover it all we must wear gloves, which will also pick up the virus so we still can't touch any part of our bodies. It's just a guess but I would say that if the virus is anywhere near you, the length of time that hand sanitizer is effective is about 10 seconds tops. Just my opinion I know, but I've never heard an argument that proves otherwise.
Hospital workers, sure and even then it is repeated hundreds of times a day and other protective garb is used as well, when available! But for everyday life, it is somewhat effective on bacteria, but not so much on virus. I believe that is pretty much the job of our immune system to protect us from. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. Anyway, here's hoping you get to the store first in line.
I miss Aldi but unless I can rope drop it I avoid it because it's like Best Buy on Black Friday
Sunday mornings seem to be the best because of the amount of people live streaming church

Most of my veggie plants go in earth boxes on my second floor deck
Make sure to properly space them and they take a couple of years to really start producing
Thank you the tulips are beautiful and I wish I could grow some but here they're called deer chow
I missed the cherry blossoms in Newark
My sewing is the same way right now. I have a half finished dress I need to get to this week after making myself a mask or 4 out of cute fabric if I have any left. I still have elastic
That stuff has been almost as hard to find as toilet paper

So glad the arboretum allowed driving through. It would have been a shame if no one would have been able to see the beautiful tulips and daffodils. They are around for so short a time as it is.
I tried strawberry's in one location in my garden. Within two years the entire garden was taken over by the strawberry's. I didn't plan it that way, they just spread on their own, and the strawberry's were always tiny, about the size of a marble. I finally gave up and and built a storage shed on the spot my garden was and made the rest part of my lawn. I also had critter problems initially and found that spreading "dried blood" around the plants keep most of them away. Before that the best my string beans could do was to come up about two inches tall and two leaves on them and the next morning all I had were little green sticks sticking out of the dirt.
