My aunt went to the farmer's market almost every day, so we always had fresh fruits and vegetables to eat, which were delicious! She also put little chocolates on my sister's and my pillows before bed.

On days we didn't go out to eat, we all had fun preparing dinner together in the kitchen. Looking at all of this food is making me hungry (as usual), so I'm off to make a little snack!
