Saturday night, still a little isolated. Everyone says if you are older (politely put) you should stay at home.

Today, I would love to go to a restaurant and dine with white table cloths, sit close to others, listen to their chatter and feel light hearted. Have a too polite waiter bend over to take my order. Will the waiter be wearing masks, I wonder?

In a heady state of euphoria, I would even order their best champagne, taste the bubbles, smile as if I were celebrating something special. We need to support each other, after all.

But only ten customers are allowed! Not quite the same atmosphere as a full house, and for me, as I am well over the hill, none of this is recommended.

Instead, in a moment of foolishness, I might light a candle to compliment a plate of pasta (again). Dinner for one. COVID style.

But I can dream of better times, or good old times, can't I?
