Mostly. In my county there’s a rise in new cases, hospitals are overrun, and deaths are up. Not many, but some of the cases, hospitalizations and deaths are vaccinated people, which is very scary. I may go back to quarantining.
It doesn’t taste the same, at least in part, because the ingredients have changed. Heavy cream (where a lot of the flavor comes from) is now ultra pasteurized. The blueberries, peaches, and strawberries have all had the flavor bred out of them to make them last for long truck rides, or to increase their size. Do you remember those tiny wild strawberries and how sweet they were? The giants you buy at the store look amazing, but they have very little flavor. They disappoint me every time.
Right? Who gets into a tub that way? Ohhhh – yeah. A drunk. He’ll have two headaches in the morning, and a good-sized goose egg for breakfast.
