Gifts of Food
Last Updated November 24, 2020
Here are some tips for preparing, delivering and receiving food during today’s difficult times:
- Wear a mask and gloves while preparing food — it prevents you from touching your face and might bring peace of mind.
- Wrap foods in plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or in a washable, reusable container.
- When delivering food, wear a mask, set it down and then let your friend or loved one pick it up.
- Take a deep breath, and remind yourself that the chances of catching the virus from food or its packaging is unlikely.
- So bake that batch of cookies or simmer a pot of soup, and deliver it to someone you love. It’ll do you both good. Just don’t forget to wash your hands when you get home.
