OUT TO LUNCH
















Tapes marked the carpet from  the Cyber entrance.  Big blue x's of tape, mark your spot --6 feet apart.  With clean hands and a mask on.  You wait your turn as the line snakes all the way around the hall to the other end of the dinning room.  You are welcomed by a cheerful hostess decked out with a mask and gloves. You go down the food line and pick your choices from many helpers also wearing mask with gloves.  As one moves to next choice you move up one space.  They bag it up and hand it to you as you advance out the door.  Spritz your hands and off you go.  Wonderful catfish yesterday. fried green tomatoes were excellent. Pick out as much as you want of everything, even milk.  No tea.  The food was extra good . Out you go back to your own apartment. It will be this way for a while.  Sitting at the tables with friends, talking, laughing, gossiping, will have to wait and something to look forward to. So I feel like I did go "out to lunch" --sort of.
