    I'd wash the hell out of them before use or throw them away. No doubt someone trying to be nice, but I eliminate every bit of risk I can.

    We went to the seafood shop today. I called in my order, got the total and wrote them a check. Put the check on a clipboard in the back of the Murano, called when I got there, They brought my order out and put it in the back of the car. Distance was maintained., no interaction.

    Then we went for an hour drive in the country, seeing all the redbuds in bloom and spring busting out all over. It was great.

      Nice gesture! Mik's right about the washing. A little bleach would be good with the detergent. Could Eileen be the mom of a coworker?

        Maybe Karla’s real name is Eileen, but you forgot and called her the wrong name on your 2nd date, and this is how she tells you after all these years.

            @brenda a little hydrogen peroxide goes a long way against this crap. As does soap and water.

              Rachel made masks for herself and the boy. We just throw them in the wash.

              Only non-witches get due process.

                @jon-nyc Everybody keeps saying to use hot water, but:

                1. Hot water alone needs to be over 140 degrees F to kill this crap. Home water heaters are set at 120. You can amp up the water heater, but you had better know exactly what you are doing.

                2. Cold water with soap works just as well as hot water with soap.

                3. H2O2 is the primary ingredient of Clorox 2. It works well on this crap, too.

                    Wash is fine, although I would use the hot water setting (yes, my hot water heater is turned up).

                      Yep. Mine is set to 140.
