Y que, how are your banana loaves coming along?
It’s been very strange being cooped up for… how many days has it been now? 1467, I’m pretty sure. Fewer events and meetings, more DIY haircuts, exercising our right to exercise, Tiger King, and TikToks (if you don’t know, don’t try to find out unless you’re willing to lose many precious hours of your life). My sympathy goes out to all house pets; I now understand the excitement of staring out the window.
