Another week of writing, cooking, and walking awaits. I have to admit there is some comfort in my social distancing routine. If you need a little change of pace in your own routine, check out my favorite procrastination links from around the web this week…

• Next week, assuming I can find chicken, I’m trying this recipe for “Marry Me Chicken.” (No wisecracks! We don't eat our hens!)

• “You’re allowed to Enjoy Something.” (Thank you Thirteen!)

• Ava Gardner coping with the pandemic. (Thanks Ann!) 

• Advice for all hair types during shelter at home.

• This 20-minute story about the race to produce ventilators was such a feel good. Please if you only click one link, make it this one.

• She’s your favorite aunt leading a backyard workout.

• This clip from Singing in the Rain, will make you smile! It features Donald O'Connor who, according to the YouTube comments, invented breakdancing and parkour, broke a rib on one of the falls, smoked four packs a day, had to rest three days after this shoot, and then was forced to reshoot because some footage was lost. 

• These are chickens you could try at home.

• Also, this writer's Zoom background might look familiar...

• This has to be one of the meatiest interviewsI've ever read. If you're a New Yorker, you'll love it.

• Facetiming or Zooming with Jesus or the Brady Bunch.
