embrace the leisure!!! those afternoons where you literally have no social or practical obligations are so delicious and even more so with food and entertainment.
during the holidays my family would always make dumplings for korean new yearโs soup, and then freeze the rest to eat later but this is also something you could totally do by yourself too! find any type of dumpling recipe you like and make a double or triple batch of filling, then sit and fold your dumplings while u watch a good movie (linked my list of wintery movies). the best part is eating them as you go along and having a wealth of dumplings ready to eat later on when you donโt feel like cooking!
after writing this i realize this may not be helpful if you actually hate dumplings ๐ญ but i think any simple but productive task would be great to spend an afternoon or evening at home to unwind! (puzzles, cookie decorating, making decorations to put up)
