Time to share a few things from all around the internet that have inspired me to get creative and help others over this time of social distancing in our home. I hope something here sparks something in you too! What have you been up to lately! Share your favorite resources and I’ll share them in next week’s round-up! Let’s have a safe and productive week!

​

What I've Been Up To: 

Baking batches of hot cross buns for our neighbors but a smile on all of our faces: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/hot-cross-buns/
Ben and I spent a whole afternoon filming a goofy cooking show of us making this. It was so silly and so fun!: https://www.hummingbirdhigh.com/2020/04/dalgona-coffee.html
This delicious bread literally took 45 minutes to throw together and Ben raved about it for days: https://www.halfbakedharvest.com/5-ingredient-beer-bread/
I whipped out my sewing machine and a bunch of old tea towels and made facemasks for our errand runs. Each took about 20 minutes and was perfect with an audiobook and a cup of coffee. So easy!: https://www.carlytheprepster.com/handmade-masks.html
Speaking of Ben, Kroger Clicklist wouldn’t let us get Reese eggs and he was devastated so I made these for him and they are our LITERALLY BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL. Don’t miss making these!: https://www.bostongirlbakes.com/homemade-reeses-peanut-butter-eggs/
I’ve wanted to be able to do dutch braids for years and thanks to Youtube and a little time in front of the mirror, I finally can!:

Also, I don’t want to promise too much, but this might be the PERFECT messy bun tutorial. And I’ve watched a lottttt:

Disney World closing it’s doors was one of the things that shocked me the most when all of this started. This Youtube channels does virtual videos of my favorite rides and is the perfect break from your work from home schedule:

To Create: 

Groceries have been weird around here. Sometimes we get everything we want and sometimes things like flour and milk can be hard to come by. These ideas helped me come up with a healthy dinner quite a bit:

Being pregnant, I’ve had to get VERY creative about how to put together a fancy drink. This list is gold: https://xokatierosario.com/7-elegant-mocktails-that-make-you-feel-fancy/
Speaking of missing drinks, my hometown somehow still doesn’t have a Starbucks, so this list helps us get creative with our at-home options:
