Reinventing comfort in times of Covid

Covid has made life stressful, and has taken away many of the things that give us comfort and joy - I am thinking mainly about how limited we are to be spending quality time with our loved ones. So here's some ways I reinvented a sense of comfort. Every week, my husband and I plan a gourmet recipe and share it with our daughter and her husband who live elsewhere.The four of us gather all of the ingredients and then we open a Zoom session as we cook together and then eat together. We have been doing this since Covid started and it has been a regular event that we will continue doing even after isolation! Another activity that we used to do when our kids were younger - everyone built a gingerbread house and we had a family competition with prizes for the best. Since we can't do this together, this year we all decided to build our own, and we will invite other family members to be the judges in a Zoom session where all of the gingerbread houses will be "on display" .

We all have to survive these times. How can you reinvent comfort during this season?
