Day 1 of the Lockdown

When I got up on the morning of day 1 I could here the horses galloping around next door. I looked at my clock and it was already 10:00am. that's one good thing about being stuck at home, sleeping in.

I have created a routine:

• sleeping in of course
• then making my bed and getting dressed
• get up have a shower 
• have breakfast
• do a little bit of schoolwork
• go for a walk up the hill across the road
• come back and do more work
• then finally relax

over the past few days I have made russian fudge, dad got us disney+ for a week and bought a lego set to keep me sane.

We made beer bread which is a type of bread that doesn't use yeast. It's easy to make and takes about 1 hour. 

Here's the recipe:

• 3 cups of flour
• 2 teaspoons of baking powder
• 1/4 cup of sugar
• pinch of salt
• 1 330ml can of warm beer

Method:

sift the dry ingredients. make a well in the centre. add the can of beer. mix quickly and lightly (this is a sticky dough). put into a bread pan lined with baking paper. bake at around 175c for around an hour.

(the alcohol cooks off so not alcoholic).

even though being stuck at home has its down sides, I think we can all get through it.
