May came home on Tuesday and then this happened

If you have children, it often happens that you think of yourself last. So it can happen that I have wrapped up the whole crowd with a scarf and mittens and suddenly stand outside without a coat. On Tuesday, I rushed from work to home because it was open house night at school. While I struggle through the traffic jam, I call the house number. A trembling little voice comes through. ‘Mom, you're coming, right? I was so scared you forgot or had to work.’ That mother image of mine apparently needs some repairs. I can reassure her. ‘I'm in the car and on my way. But if you all put on your coats and shoes so we can go right away, that would help.’

I look at drawings from the first library visit, admire the letter ‘o’ and gently stroke the puzzle of Haarlem that consists of a thousand pieces that group six has put together in a week. I chat with mothers of friends and get swept out of the school at a quarter to eight. At home, a girl is waiting who needs to take a bath. And the dog needs to go out. By nine o'clock, I'm downstairs. In the evening, that is. And I don't know how it is for you, but I just don't feel like it anymore. Maybe for food and a sip of wine, but not to cook. Really not. So I lay down under a blanket and asked towards the kitchen if maybe a cup of tea could come. It did. But I heard more rummaging and stirring. And twenty minutes later, a perfect, spicy Eastern soup came out of the kitchen. With my beloved following behind. Voilà, one of the many advantages of HelloFresh: it only has to be there or something is being cooked. Usually by me, but now by my dearly beloved, because he was also hungry and found that brown bag containing everything you need for a perfect meal particularly inviting. My parents, who happened to be there too, wanted a bite. And that's where the HelloFresh jukebox began: those are the phrases that follow when you put a HelloFresh dish on the table. ‘Go ahead.’, ‘To taste.’, ‘Oh yes, just a little more.’ and from: ‘You won't get fat from this’ to: ‘Wow, this is delicious.’ and: ‘Really, something different again.’

And then suddenly everything is empty and gone and everyone is satisfied and content, and I the most of everyone. And with the code HELLOAMAYZINE you get 50% discount on your first box, so what are you waiting for?
