Just because we are in Lockdown does not mean there is nothing to do. I have a few ideas that I would like to achieve/do in this lockdown. I want to share them with you so you can be inspired as well.

Pumpkin Carving

Due to the fact I was in isolation for Halloween, I never got to carve my pumpkins so in this Lockdown I am planning on carving my pumpkins but in a Christmas/ Autumnal way. Also, I want to use the pumpkin seeds to make some delicious pumpkin seed snacks.

Pastry Making

I decided as it cold and I love food that I want to make some “winter food”… So, I have bought some pastry roll to make my own Pasties. I think I will end up putting cheese and onion in mine or chicken and mushroom etc.. I personally think it would be fun to make them! It will give me something to do rather than just cooking and eating.

Pizza Making

On the topic food I have always wanted to make my own pizza! So why not when in lockdown, while having nothing to do, make my own pizza! Personally, I think it will most probably turn out awful or knowing me I will burn it but once again it it’s something to do and I will hopefully have fun!

Autumnal Walks

With the weather being cold and crisp, and the trees looking more colourful than ever, it’s a beautiful time of the year to wrap up warm and go on an Autumnal walk. Whether it’s a walk around a lake or a field covered in leaves. Hot drink in hand or not. With family and friends or alone. It will be great for your mind and something to do.

A Cosy Drive

If you are looking for a reason to get out the house why not head for a hot drink? McDonald’s? Starbucks? Costa? A local coffee take out? Why not get in the car and go for a drive. Music or not. With family or alone. You can get out the house and go for a drive for something to do.

Christmas Biscuits

I know I am a little early but I love to get in the Christmas as soon as possible. I want to bake some Christmas Biscuits to get me in more of the Christmas spirit. I am wanting to post my recipe on here after I have baked them. Let me know if this is what you are interested in!

Pebble Painting

This is a bit of a random one. But, I think with everything crazy going on in the world there needs to be more positivity and love shared around. So, I wanted to do my bit by painting rocks and hiding them for others to find to put smiles on their faces.

Soup Making

As the weather is getting colder, and the meals are getting warmer. Why not make some home made soup? You could even support small business at this time and purchase the ingredients from a local fruit and veg shop.

I hope this gives you some inspiration for Lockdown. If you have any other idea them please comment them and let me know, and we can share our inspiration for this Lockdown.
