[ENG/ESP] A Sunday of family preparations.
This week that is just beginning will be a bit busy for me between work and upcoming family celebrations. I hope that it will also be a productive week for you, full of achievements, good times, and pleasant surprises.
Last Sunday was a particularly beautiful day, with bright sunshine that seemed to caress every corner of the landscape. We decided to leave the house mid-morning with a clear purpose: to buy food for my beloved chickens. They are an essential part of our routine and well-being, so we couldn't let them go without food. The natural landscapes these days look especially radiant, as if nature itself had put on its best dress to welcome us. Vibrant trees, paths full of light, and that warm air that invites you to enjoy the walk, all contributed to the charm of the moment.
Esta semana que recién comienza estaré un tanto ocupada entre el trabajo y las celebraciones familiares que se avecinan. Espero que para ustedes también sea una semana productiva, llena de logros, buenos momentos y gratas sorpresas.
El pasado domingo fue un día particularmente hermoso, con un sol brillante que parecía acariciar cada rincón del paisaje. Decidimos salir de casa a media mañana, con un propósito claro: comprar la comida de mis queridas gallinas. Ellas forman parte esencial de nuestra rutina y bienestar, así que no podíamos dejar que se quedaran sin su alimento. Los paisajes naturales en estos días lucen especialmente radiantes, como si la naturaleza misma se hubiera puesto su mejor vestido para recibirnos. Árboles vibrantes, caminos llenos de luz, y ese aire cálido que invita a disfrutar del paseo, todo aportaba al encanto del momento.
We arrived at the farm supply store where I usually buy food, and just then they were unloading trucks full of products. We had to wait a while to be served, but far from being inconvenienced, we took advantage of that time to talk and make plans. Meanwhile, we watched the comings and goings of the staff, the stacked sacks, and the hustle and bustle typical of such places. It's amazing how even everyday scenes can have their own magic.
While we waited, my husband had an excellent idea: since this week we are celebrating the birthdays of two very special people—my father on Wednesday and our son on Friday—we decided to go buy a case of malt. There's nothing like that delicious cold drink to toast the years of life. At home, malt has a special place in our shared tastes.
Llegamos a la agropecuaria donde usualmente compro el alimento, y justo en ese momento estaban descargando las gandolas repletas de productos. Tuvimos que esperar un poco para poder ser atendidos, pero lejos de incomodarnos, aprovechamos ese tiempo para conversar y hacer planes. Mientras tanto, observábamos el ir y venir del personal, los sacos apilados, y el bullicio propio de ese tipo de lugares. Es increíble cómo esas escenas cotidianas también tienen su magia.
Durante la espera, a mi esposo se le ocurrió una excelente idea: como esta semana celebramos el cumpleaños de dos personas muy especiales—mi padre, el miércoles, y nuestro hijo, el viernes—decidimos ir a comprar una caja de maltas. Nada como esa deliciosa bebida fría para brindar por los años de vida, en casa, la malta tiene un lugar especial en nuestros gustos compartidos.
Once we finished buying food for the chickens, we headed to a warehouse in the city. The journey was truly pleasant. The road was bathed in soft, golden light, and every bend in the road revealed a new corner full of beauty. Those landscapes spoke for themselves, reflecting the tranquility and fulfillment we felt that Sunday.
Una vez terminamos la compra del alimento para las gallinas, nos dirigimos hacia un almacén en la ciudad. El trayecto fue realmente placentero. El camino estaba bañado por una luz suave y dorada, y cada curva del camino nos mostraba un nuevo rincón lleno de belleza. Esos paisajes hablaban por sí solos, reflejando la tranquilidad y la plenitud que sentíamos ese domingo.
When we arrived at the Chinese store, we discovered that they didn't have Polar malt, which was what we were originally looking for. However, we found regional malt, which is also delicious. Our son isn't picky about brands; for him, the important thing is to enjoy a cold malt. My husband, without hesitation, took the box with the largest bottles and carefully placed them in the car. With a knowing smile, we knew we were setting the stage for happy moments to come.
Al llegar al almacén del chino, descubrimos que no había malta Polar, que era la que inicialmente buscábamos. Sin embargo, encontramos malta regional, que también es deliciosa. Nuestro hijo no es exigente con las marcas; para él lo importante es saborear una malta bien fría. Mi esposo, sin dudarlo ni un segundo, tomó la caja con las botellas más grandes y las colocó cuidadosamente en el auto. Con una sonrisa cómplice, sabíamos que estábamos preparando momentos felices por venir.
We were both very happy. Knowing that we will be able to treat my father and our son to something they enjoy fills us with excitement. We are also organizing a special dinner, simple but with a lot of love, which I will tell you more about later this week. It will be an intimate family gathering, full of flavors, laughter, and stories, just the way we like it.
Thank you for joining me on this little tour of my day-to-day life. I hope you can also share beautiful, meaningful moments with your loved ones.
I wish you an excellent start to the week.
See you soon.
Bye!
Ambos estábamos muy contentos. Saber que podremos agasajar a mi padre y a nuestro hijo con algo que les gusta nos llena de entusiasmo. Además, estamos organizando una cena especial, sencilla pero con mucho cariño, de la cual les hablaré con más detalle en el transcurso de la semana. Será un encuentro familiar íntimo, lleno de sabores, risas y anécdotas, como nos gusta.
Gracias por acompañarme en este pequeño recorrido de mi día a día. Espero que puedan compartir también con sus seres queridos momentos lindos que sean significativos.
Les deseo un excelente inicio de semana.
Hasta pronto.
¡Chao!

How was your son and father's celebrations, It is important to buy food for chikens because they need for it. I love orange's juice and its taste. I hope it will be not forgotten and not the day.
We are preparing everything for your celebration, there are still preparations to be made.
Orange juice is very healthy, it is good to consume it.
