Pandemic Potluck Tea

I think the versatility of the human race has certainly been illustrated with the advent of COVID-19…..

Everyone has had to custom-tailor their lives…..

I’ve watched choral and orchestral adaptations on-line…..

…..and wonderful ballet compositions posted on YouTube…..

(I’ll see if I can find one)

Our Fox Hunt Club has made adaptations too…..

…..we are still hunting…..

…..the great outdoors is a safer place to be…..

…..one of the last Hunts had a 7.5 mile coyote run…..

…..it was on a large ranch…..so it took some mileage for the coyote to out-strip the pack and cross the property’s border fencing…..

(Addy and I weren’t on that run…..I told her about it and she immediately got the vapors and passed out)

The “Social Distancing” between riders seems to naturally work out pretty well…..

…..our post-Hunt Teas have needed some adaptations…..

My younger daughter and I were recently at a Tea at one of our fixtures…..

I made Chocolate-Chip Irish Soda Bread (again)…..

…..but I pre-cut the slices and made them available for easy-individual pick-up…..

…..I’ve seen cookies and rolls and muffins put into sandwich bags…..so no one needs to touch the adjacent food…..

My up-coming Tea is on Halloween morning…..

(at the infamous Croom Forest)

I’ve purchased some of those (biodegradable) doggie bag containers…..

…..I’ve got ones for the main course and separate ones for dessert…..

Versatility and Adaptation that’s what’s necessary…..

Yesterday’s chocolate chip bread went over well and was happily consumed…..

The day was breezy and beautiful…..

…..it was remedial just being outdoors…..

FYI…..There IS “something” brewing in the Caribbean Sea…..

………………………and I don’t want to talk about it………………………
