Trying to use the time wisely. Always looking for things that need service or repairs (ultimately everything I own will work properly), things to add to my bucket list for the house & grounds, and lastly working on recipes which will make good foods that are nutritious and cooking in my WOK.
I'm finding a little can go a long ways in the WOK. Cook once eat twice or three times. Often, I find things in the grocery stores, which are often nearly bare around here, that others are not grabbing up as they don't know how to cook or eat it. Thus, with a little beef or pork I can stretch a few supplies into a week's worth of nutritious eating without much effort.
I have about 8 trays of ice cubes in the freezer as I'm making iced tea for a beverage where everyone else at the stores are fighting over 12 packs of soft drinks.
When standing in the check out lines I hear people remarking about how in the past money was their problem at the store but now it is the scant supply of everything. I find it an interesting challenge now, when at the store, to notice what people don't commonly buy and then to buy it and bring it home and cook something different that is still tasty. Usually these things that don't move by their best sold by dates go to the food banks.
But the Asian foods have become a bounty for me.

I'm set for the rest of the CoViD lockdown.
