Lockdown 279

Lockdown Day 279 - 30 December 2020

With the last box from storage done and dusted, we were left with two 'give away' boxes and a couple of large items which I dropped off at a depot where donations are welcome and is put to good use for those in need. 

As far as clutter goes, everything I now have unpacked and in its place will be used. I have decided in a year's time I will reassess and throw out every unused item. (whisper:  I can totally do another hard lockdown now 🤫) 

In preparation for tomorrow evening's pizza making, we took our list to the shop and came home ready to tackle the first step: making the dough. I have to say it didn't take long at all. First, you calculate your pizza number and size in weight, weigh out the corresponding flour, yeast and salt, combine in a mixer and after vigorously kneading the dough it is left to prove untill double in size, wherafter it is divided into dough balls and left to cool and then rest for 24hours in the fridge in cling wrap.

After dinner I donned my cozzie, went for a swim and did a little night baking, loving every minute, feeling like Lockdown has left for the night. With ABBA ringing in my ears, I baked Nutella brownies for junior's birthday and made my own tomato base spread for the pizza bases. 

And I decide my resolution for 2021 will be to dance and sing my way through lockdown plus this is how I will spend new year's eve and new year's and every day after that. And when I forget, I pray that God will remind me. 

Now in bed, ready to get some well deserved shut eye, I felt a shimmering  hope well up in my spirit..... a hope borne of faith in our God Who will never leave nor forsake us, Who has eternity in His control and Who's got this.
