Anti-maskers Have Taken Away so Much

My grandma died, mostly old age got her. I got to say goodbye Monday but while there multiple family members made sure to let me and my sister, who lost her baby because of Covid, know that they refused to mask. Both my sister and I have little girls too young to vaccinate. Grandma's funeral is Saturday. I've been isolating and masking at home since the hospice nurse informed us she took her infected grandfather to get tested after she partied hard in Florida for a week. At least six family members over the age of fifty have been in the room with her, all with comorbitities. We've lost a few family members and I just want to grieve with the people who knew grandma best. My dad and sister are both immunocompromised and clotting issues run through my family, I fear that this funeral is only going to make more funerals. Pretty sure I'll get some behind my back comments for not going and I just wish someone would say it to my face. My air fryer will be arriving next week, so I'll be eating my feelings since hugging them out isn't going to happen.

Doing the right thing can feel so hard but your gramma would support you in your decision. Sending you strength, @op. Stay safe.

Thank you. I'm actually tearing up a bit. Take care.

Only advice I can offer is to heavily salt and pepper your fries before they go in the air fryer. Sorry about the other thing

Where do you stand on a touch of baking soda to speed along the Maillard reaction? Thanks also.

It's a new one on me but I trust your judgement. I can also recommend some paprika.
