Friday is our pizza night, the girls and I make our homemade pizza it's delicious and fun. I don't normally use wheat flour, to tell you the truth I don't like wheat anything, but since there's barely anything in the store shelf I caved and got some wheat flour just in case.

Another thing that's hard to find now is active dry yeast, my regular flour recipe call for active dry yeast, this one only calls for baking powder. That was a lifesaver.



I'm trying to keep life as "normal" as possible for the girls, for me, that means keeping our routine. A simple thing like Friday night pizza makes a world of difference.

We've been home for seven days now after a while days start blending in, you don't even know what day it is. Friday night pizza reminds us it's Friday! It's a little thing.

Regular pantry items are getting hard to find, we all have to learn to use substitutes and pivot.
