We’ve been trying to support our favorite local restaurants with take-out, distilleries and breweries with cocktail kits and crowlers, and now we get a day of eating some of our favorite food in the city from @createcaters - we’d prefer it be in person at one of their amazing Sunday Suppers but while those are on hold, this will do nicely. With this pandemic happening just as wedding season should be kicking off, catering companies are likely to be struggling and I love this innovative idea from Create.

Tonight’s “man I miss having other people plate my food” photos featuring pizza, pasta, and more from @trattoriamucci - so delicious. @aproperpour was working the takeout window and seeing a friend in person (from a safe distance) just drove home what a change this has been and will continue to be. We can still get our favorite foods, we have a well stocked home bar, and we’re having a lot of fun video parties - but we thrive on hospitality, both providing and receiving. I’m thankful we can support so many of the places we love, but I can’t wait until we can *experience* them again.

Tonight’s “Night Out, In” involves family dinner from @hodgesbendmn (Cubans, burger, kale salad with steak), their house made tonic kit (stewing upstairs), and drinks from our @norseman_distillery Staycation Cocktail Kit (delicious mixers, awesome vodka (though you can order several other spirits), for a good cause). We miss everyone but are trying to bring home as many of our favorites as possible.

And now, your moment of zen.

How’s our #stayhome going? Well, we made the teenagers knead bagel dough, I used my new zoom lens on the cat, I played Untitled Goose Game (or tried to), and we’ve now hosted three virtual happy hours that felt desperately needed by everyone involved. How are you doing?

A little civility in these weird times - end of the school day “tea time.” It’s not quite high tea, but it seemed like everyone could use a little something to celebrate a successful day.
