4. Cookie + Banana bread mix

This is not drill. REPEAT THIS IS NOT A DRILL. comfort food is an absolute MUST at the moment and if panic buying toilet paper was not your thing then panic baking WILL BE. This delicious pandemic is one I and every other instagram basic b*tch can get around!

So go on girl whether you’re feeling Betty Crocker, Greens, Aunty Kath or a Coles home brand (we don’t judge) get those oven mitts on and get to baking!

P.s. A sneaky instagram shot never hurts, because if no one else saw you baking- did you even bake?

5. Coffee Machine

During this time, it is essential to stay with your routine, and yes girl that does mean sticking to your half strength almond cap latte mocha-tini with 3/4 of sugar in the morning - because YOU DESERVE IT.

However what will change is your walk into the cafe closest to work to indulge in one of these bad boys and also indulge in the bad boy barista you’ve been making ground work with all year.

Stress less my dear because all you need is one cute AF coffee machine and an apron so you can role play with your housemate and voilà - your morning coffee routine is BACK IN ACTION!

Dating Apps square.jpg

6. Dating Apps

Don’t scroll pass this one bby girl! You know it, I know it and Gary 1.5km away knows it- you love a good dating app. Lets state the obvious - we can’t exactly meet up with anyone without breaking some sort of Iso laws BUT what you can do is brush up on your game for when you are ready to get back out in that wide world.

Pick your poison: tinder, bumble, hinge or Grindr whatever works, remember a little talking never hurt NOBODY! Incase you wanted to track your online dating, we have the CUTEST journal for you - “My Adventures in Online Dating”.

Love may only be a swipe away babe!
