Hello! How are you all feeling at the moment? Now that we are basically in lockdown, I’ve had some time to play with my Cricut.

The world has gone mad and the people in the supermarket have gone even crazier. There is no toilet paper, no flour, no canned goods – nothing (except a lot of Easter eggs, which I’m fine with!) If you’re someone who has no idea where to start with a Corona Virus 14 day pantry plan, and doesn’t want to be the woman I saw today buying 20 boxes of Sultana Bran, then I’ve put together a plan and a shopping list for you, as well as some good online shops you can order from.

It’s a worrying time at the moment, with Coronavirus spreading and world leaders recommending social distancing and self isolation. With most of the world now being told to stay home, and only being able to leave for essential reasons, we have a lot of kids who need entertaining at home all day.
