5 Things for Tuesday- Lockdown

You Asked

Tanya is hosting this fun challenge.

The 5 Things you enjoyed doing during the lockdown?

• Walking

As I couldn’t go anywhere so I spent more time walking around the neighborhood. I wore a mask and kept my distance. Walking helped me to maintain my healthy routine and also gave me the opportunity to get out of the house and in the fresh air.

• Blogging, blogging and more blogging

Blogging is my hobby and passion. The free time made it possible for me to read and write more during the lockdown.

• Saving money

No place to go meant no way to spend money on impulse buys. No movies, eating out, or trips to Sephora. I think I must have saved hundreds of dollars during these 3 1/2 months.

• Cooking and baking

Not that I am very fond of doing either but to kill time I made a few things that I hadn’t tried before.

Whole wheat naan bread

Baked samosas

Doughnuts

Parathas

And lots of banana bread experiments

• Playing jigsaw puzzles game on my phone

I had stopped doing it because I didn’t find time for making puzzles. But now I find it relaxing to complete a 300 piece puzzle daily. I also use the coloring app to color beautiful pictures.

These are fun things that I found time for during the lockdown.

What are yours?

I am writing to express my opinion, share my experiences and to maybe provide some insight. My blog is addressing women at 50 ( but men are welcome to read my posts) ,their issues and the questions that come up at this stage in life. I don’t aim to teach, but to learn together.

    1. I am trying.
      The banana bread experiments were so-so. Hence the multiple tries. But I am getting better. The naans however are pretty good. I’ve made them 3 times now.
