They run a small place and do a lot of take out. They have short runs of food and often sell out. They do a great job working with their social media to get the word out about all of their specials and when they run out of things. I saw that they were doing car-side service.

After dinner we did FaceTime with Mimi and Dano. The kids called to thank them for a special delivery that arrived today, a basketball hoop. I had planned to bring the kids to a park to play, but that hasn’t happened. Instead Andy took a wire tomato cage and stuck it in the ground. The kids were using that to shoot their basketball. That wasn’t going to do. So, tomorrow we’re going to put that together and the kids will be playing soon enough in the backyard.
