Thoughts and flashes of brilliance that enter my head from nowhere.
Enjoy. Or abhor, depending on the effect of my "wisdom".
Let us discuss Schwan's home delivery of frozen foods.
I have used Schwan's since 2005 as of this writing. This service is great for a single person, or just a couple.
The prices are not incredibly cheap but they are quite affordable. And the convenience of home delivery is worth it.
The company provides prepared foods but I caution, generally they must be amended.
A frozen container of prepared macaroni and cheese is ample but very plain. I always add diced tomatoes to my macaroni and cheese but additions for this meal staple vary. Some add pepperoni, green peppers, other ingredients to boost the flavor and add protein.
They have very good "snacks" in that it's nice to throw four hot-dog stuffed bagel rolls to the microwave and after two minutes, pull out, add a squirt of spicy mustard and enjoy with your favorite TV show.
They have been very dependable during the corona virus crisis.

House Dems' emergency coronavirus stimulus bill includes $35M for JFK Performing Arts Center
I think it takes quite a bit of nerve for Nancy Pelosi, representing the Democratic party, to ask for many things that have nothing to do with the corona virus.
$35 M for the JFK center? Money to aid the U.S. Post Office? $100 M for NASA?
It's like they are flipping us citizens who carry this country on our back the bird while demanding that their pet projects get money NY needs for hospitals and the elderly need for hospital care.

House Democrats are being criticized on Monday for allotting expenses in their proposal of an emergency stimulus bill that has nothing to do with the coronavirus outbreak, including $35 million meant for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington D.C.
Following the Senate Democrats derailing the pursuit of a bipartisan-drafted stimulus bill, the House led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., offered their own version of a bill meant to save the economy as the pandemic has pummelled the stock market. However, buried inside the over 1,100-page emergency proposal is money meant to upkeep a popular destination at the country's capital.
"For an additional amount for 'Operations and Maintenance,' $35,000,000, to remain available until September 30, 2021, for operations and maintenance requirements related to the consequenees of coronavirus: Provided, That notwithstanding the provisions of 20 U.S.C. 76th et seq., funds provided in this Act shall be made available to cover operating expenses required to ensure the continuity of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and its affiliates, including for employee compensation and benefits, grants, contracts, payments for rent or utilities, fees for artists or performers, information technology and other administrative expenses," the bill reads.
The next page of the bill indicates that $300 million would be allotted for the National Endowment of the Arts and an additional $300 million for the National Endowment of the Humanities. The bill also provides $100 million for NASA and $278 million for the IRS.

Congress and White House say deal appears close on $2 trillion coronavirus aid package
Nancy wants her prizes so she delays.

Congressional and White House officials said Tuesday a deal appears to be at hand to provide sweeping aid to businesses and workers facing ruin from the coronavirus pandemic.
Both Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and the top Democrat, Sen. Chuck Schumer, said agreement appeared close on the nearly $2 trillion package. “I don't see any issue that can't be overcome within the next few hours," Schumer said. "Last night I thought we were on the five-yard line. Now we're on the two."
Negotiators labored in the shadow of what McConnell called "the most serous threat to Americans' health in over a century and quite likely the greatest risk to America's jobs and prosperity that we've seen since the Great Depression.”
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and congressional leaders engaged in final negotiations after a tumultuous but productive day on Monday. While the two sides have resolved many issues in the sweeping package, some sticking points remained. A Senate vote could come later in the day.
A one-time payment of $1,200 per person, or $3,000 for a family of four, would go directly to the public.
Hospitals could get up to $200 billion for the expected influx of sick patients, said Mnuchin.
Democrats said the package would help replace the salary of furloughed workers for four months, rather than the three months first proposed. Furloughed workers would get however much a state usually provides for unemployment, plus a one-time $600 add-on.
