Ms. Wildeman's weekend
I did many things over the weekend. On Friday I was cooking pasta when the bell rang. I walked to the door and got a flower delivery. I went back to the kitchen and finished cooking the pasta. After dinner my boyfriend and I watched a movie while I was putting on a face mask. On Saturday my boyfriend and I drove from Utrecht to Maarssen and went to an escape room. While we were escaping we got stuck in one of the rooms and security had to free us. It was quite the adventure. On Sunday I went to IKEA with my sister. We met up with my dad while we were shopping and stopped for some Swedish meatballs on our way out.
