People around me, as far as I can see Strive to live an ordinary life. This ordinariness is not limited to the ordinary 9 to 5, but to find your own interests and radiate charm and great energy in them. Their lives are not noisy, and they don't even seem to work that hard. They get rid of complicated interpersonal relationships and only interact with simple and interesting people. Even such a simple life requires a lot of effort. The plainness that generally seems more reliable is hard to come by now, and it is far less simple than before. After all, we live in a vast void.

In the morning, I used the red dates sent by my mother to cook red date and white fungus soup, make a red date scone, and prepare to make a red date pound cake for afternoon tea in the afternoon. Because I was slightly anemic as a child, I almost grew up eating red dates. It’s interesting to say that I didn’t feel repelled by the food I was “forced” to eat. I knew it was their love and care for me. Even today, I can still taste happiness when eating red dates. The unique taste of scones is best served with jam or cheese, and must be paired with English black tea. Although the taste is not amazing, it does become more and more delicious the more you eat it, just like the simplicity it exudes in ordinary days. It is a taste that you will suddenly want to return to one morning no matter what kind of delicious food you taste later.
