Mission (failed)

Last night was the designated shopping day for the week. Our cabinet with the morning and afternoon snacks was almost empty, so the bags quickly filled up with countless snack items. Even in the store, a grumbling feeling crept into my stomach - so much plastic and so quickly it gets devoured. When unpacking at home, the final decision was made: We're going to make more snacks ourselves! So, last night at 10 PM, we started preparing and brought out the dehydrator. Apple rings and dried mangoes are always a hit.

This morning, the girls had eager eyes, but unfortunately, the drying process took another 6 hours. Of course, I caved in, and each got a little 'tester'. I quickly grabbed something from the cellar and, poof, it turned into a hamster action 😡. This won't do for filling the morning snack box on Monday!!!! They earnestly explained that the mangoes were just soooo delicious... Catalina probably meant that as a joke, because shortly after, she vomited everything, in one big splash, all over the dining table (she probably finds the mangoes sickening 🤪). So, take the child, put her in the bathtub, clean the dining room, start the washing machine, and then oh no, who has turned the clock, is it really that late?! Nayara has to get to training. Showering and putting on makeup is overrated, so off we go at full speed, everyone hustle into the car (Catalina has also fallen asleep in the meantime 😅), as we drive off, realizing that I'm actually airing out the house and all the windows are still open (yes, thieves, help yourselves again, you know our openness already 😂), but there's no time left. We arrived 5 minutes before training started. But why does everything look so deserted?! Off to the locker room - there's not a soul. Call Alessandro to see if he received any news. Nothing... So, again, all 3 girls back in the car and return to the well-ventilated igloo 😜.

And who expected anything different: At 4 PM in the afternoon, the last apple ring was also consumed 😂. So on Monday, we'll be back to the plastic-wrapped snack items in the morning snack box 🤪. Maybe there will be a spontaneous baking session tomorrow.
