(365/29)

I am not sure if all you guys are familiar with Kinder Surprise. If not then I’d like to assure you that it is one of the coolest things ever. Because a delicious chocolate egg hiding a lovely surprise inside cannot be called other than cool and awesome, I think.

And on top of all those things, that fact is that this phenomenon has been in my life for more than thirty years, which actually is MY WHOLE LIFE! So as you can imagine, I’m pretty addicted.

Just lately, to my great amazement, I noticed that there’s a new PINK Kinder Surprise available. It’s pink because it is for GIRLS only. ‘So great!’ I thought.

‘What could be inside?’ I wondered. ‘Lovely, lovely princess stuff, for sure!’ I imagined. ‘No more airplanes, trains or cars for me… Yippee!’ My life seemed to have suddenly taken a completely different direction.

So today I went to a store all ready to give this new big thing a test…

 

I came home, unwrapped the thing.

 
 

I opened the chocolate egg and ate one half immediately, because that is what you need to do. It’s a rule.
 
 

And then, all excited, I opened the yellow egg.
 
 

A puzzle.

‘Okay, I’ll leave this one for later, when the chocolate kicks in’ I decided. ‘I’ll be smarter then.’

 
 

Luckily, there was one more egg available for testing.

 
 

So I opened that one too… and, of course, I ate one half of the chocolate immediately, because that is what you need to do. It’s a rule.

And look, this seemed a bit scary. Construction seemed to be needed again.
 
 

O-oh!

 
 

O-oh!

 
 

O-OH!

 
 

Actually, I kind of remember this thing from my childhood. Which does not seem to have ended, actually.

 
 

You can make art with this. All you need is a sharp pen and a little patience.

See?

 
 

My art. I signed it in case someone was interested.

 
 

Oh, well, here’s the result of my epic testing: Fortunately, I still like surprises and the chocolate still tastes really good. That’s why I’ll still get my Kinder Surprise from time to time… like tomorrow, and on Friday too, I think. But I still expected some princess stuff.
