We continue to have no problem finding keto foods in Costco and Trader Joe's early senior hours, but spiced it up with take-out from a favorite pub and micro-brewery (daughter is home ). Both are open three weekend days, with only on-line ordering of most popular items, pay by credit card with tip %s, check pick-up time and phone as you arrive in car. Owner came out in mask and handed us a paper bag. We barely slowed to a stop at both places and were back home with hot fresh meal and a cold brew in minutes as there was no traffic...best take-out system ever, wish they would do that all the time The pub has a good supplier of fresh coastal fish, and local meats, so we want him to stay in business.

And a low carb observation that struck me funny this week...N.C. has state run free-standing alcohol stores. 1. It was quite busy for mid-day, mid-week, and 2. I stayed in the car and watched everyone who entered wearing homemade masks, including some bandanas and sunglasses. Two months ago, if the clerk had seen someone covered up by a bandana and sunglasses, he would have called the police.
