Saturday has become grocery haul day during “this time”. My daughter places our order (and my parents’) through Instacart and our Aldi order is delivered to her porch. We’ve generally done pretty well getting the items we need but this week there was no lettuce of any kind, no cabbage and no eggs. David went…
