                let currentDate = Date()
                
                for minuteOffset in 0 ..< 10 {
                    let entryDate = Calendar.current.date(byAdding: .minute, value: minuteOffset, to: currentDate)!
                    let entry = SimpleEntry(date: entryDate)
                    entries.append(entry)
