   Hallo Christian!   
      
    CJ> Wearing a mask for protection against viruses is like throwing a   
    CJ> golf ball against a soccer goals' net.   
      
   Especially the homemade ones which are showing up around town.  I can see them   
   being somewhat more useful in some of the major cities where air quality is   
   low but even then the fine particles are getting through, so I am guessing   
   that it is more of a placebo than anything effective as far as protecting ones   
   lungs.   
      
    CJ> I myself am shopping on two days a week:   
      
   That is more of less my regular habit and the virus hasn't changed anything   
   there.  However I just have myself to look out for so it simplifies shopping   
   trips greatly.   
      
    CJ> what I COULD get is chestnut flour   
      
   Interesting.  What are your plans for this?  Wild hazlenuts would be more   
   doable in most parts of Canada and probably would make a good flour.  Also I   
   seem to recall seeing a British documentary about stone age peoples using   
   hazlenuts for cooking so there might be something to it.  You've piqued my   
   curiousity.   
      
    CJ> nor fresh yeast.   
      
   I stumbled across an article online about 'growing' your own.  I should have   
   paid it more attention so I could pass on the link to it.  I am sure a search   
   of this topic would produce a hopefully credible link.   
      
    CJ> Yesterday I visited our drugstore accidently at the right time   
    CJ> to get a oackage of toilet paper. First time in three weeks...   
      
   Me too except it has been more than three weeks since my previous purchase.  I   
   decided I had better grab a package while I was at the store as I had to help   
   out a neighbour when she ran out when this whole thing started and toilet   
   paper was suddenly hard to find.  I now should be good for quite some time   
   barring any additional neighbourhood emergencies.  So far so good.  :::knock   
   on wood:::   
      
   Stay well.
