Notes from the Zombie Apocalypse: Chopped, Coronavirus Edition

I’d have my basket in front of me if I could actually get a basket but here goes.

My ingredients are as follows:

2 pounds of stew mean (that I didn’t order but thank god I received in my delivery, and by god I mean Jewel Food Stores.)

Eight hot dog buns

16 oz honey

One 15 oz can fire roasted diced tomatoes

Dried garlic flakes

Two carrots

Canned fruit cocktail

What dinner am I going to make out of that? I’m not a Food Network Iron chef so have no idea but I imagine things could be worse. I expect some time in the future I either won’t be able to get anything or won’t be able to afford anything.

My little spreader of germs, eater of cat food, and user of kitty litter (at least she doesn’t use toilet paper)

I love when Dr. Sanjay Gupta tells me to disinfect my condo with ingredients posted on the EPA website. He should tell us what to do with the ingredients not eliminated from my grocery list. I tried making my own disinfectant wipes out of paper towels, water and bleach, the only supplies on hand. The water and bleach turned the paper towels into pulp. I’ll ruin a few washcloths in the future. Dr. Gupta also says to wear gloves. I’m saving my gloves for the possibility one of us gets sick. Where am I supposed to get gloves…
