Hello! Good evening!晚上好！I’m so happy to see you. I’m树华, and it’s almost time to say good night.

哈喽！晚上好！很开心见到你。我是树华，快到了说晚安的时候。

But first, let’s have a chat.

可是我们先聊会儿吧。

Yangyang, on Ximalaya, asked me:“They say,‘A dinner without dessert is not complete.’ Is thattrue? And how oftendoyou eatdessert?”

洋洋，在喜马拉雅上，问了我，“有人说‘没有甜品的晚饭不是晚饭’，是这样的吗？你经常吃饭后甜品吗？”

Mmm, I love dessert! When I was a kid, we had a rule: I had to eat all the food on my plate or I couldn’t have dessert. My parents wanted to make sure I ate everything, even the things I didn’t like. It worked! I finished my whole dinner and had dessert every night.

哇，我好喜欢甜品！我小时候我们家庭有个规则：要盘子上所有食物才能吃饭后甜品。我父母想确保我会把晚饭吃完，包括我不喜欢吃的东西。很有效！我每天都会把晚饭吃完然后吃饭后甜品。

After I grew up, I still used dessert as a reward to make myself work harder. I would say,“If I finish all of my work tonight, I’ll go eat a treat.” It worked, but after a while, I didn’t enjoy dessert as much. Why? Well, every time I ate dessert I was thinking about work!

长大了以后，我还是会用甜品作奖励，鼓励自己更努力。我会说，“今晚把所有工作做完的话，我就吃个甜品。”这也很有效，可是过了一段时间，我慢慢没有以前那么喜欢吃甜品的。为什么呢？就是说，每次吃甜品的时候，脑子里都是工作！

You know, it’s important to remember that there’s more to life than work. If we make everything about work, then our lives will be full of stress! We deserve to enjoy the things we like just because we like them.

你知道吧，我们要记住，生活不一定都在于工作。如果生活中每个环节都是为了工作，那么我们的生活要充满压力！我们值得单纯地享受我们喜欢的东西。

So when I hear the sentence,“A dinner without dessert is not complete,” what I want to say is: you don’t have to have dessert to enjoy your dinner, and you don’t have to have dinner to enjoy your dessert!

所以我听到“没有甜品的晚饭不是晚饭”这句话的时候，我想说的是：没有甜品也可以享受晚饭，没有晚饭也可以享受甜品！

What about you? Do you like eating dessert? I want to know, but now it’s time to say goodnight. So, goodnight!

你呢？你喜欢饭后甜品吗？我很想知道，可是现在就到了要说晚安的时候了。所以，晚安！
