my first homemade matcha latte
I have decided to share my thoughts and tidbits of the day here (instead of texting a man as often as I do) and today I made a matcha latte for the first time! I added a bit of half and half to make it creamier and I'm so delighted.

Iced Matcha latte at home
learning to make an expert iced matcha latte had long been on my list, and i cracked the code about two years ago. the catch is, getting good matcha powder and working with water at the right temperature! i whisk my matcha with a little bit of homemade vanilla syrup or local honey and water that’s 176 degrees Fahrenheit, gradually adding in a little more water at a time. once i have about a shot’s worth, i pour over ice and top with the milk of my choice. if i’m feeling extra domestic, i might even make my own almond or cashew milk!

key to perf at home matcha latte
its not rocket science but…i like to think i have this perfected -good quality matcha (i like ippodo or akira) -sift! matcha into small glass, and whisk with hot water -pour oat or almond milk in separate glass, matcha on top -**splash of vanilla syrup -whisk all together, add ice, and BOOM :)

About Making a sweet treat at home
in order to be more accountable of my consumption habits i've been really finding the small joy in lovingly crafting my little fun drinks at home. something about making an iced vanilla-rose matcha latte or a cà phê sữa đá/vietnamese iced coffee (thank u to my parents for getting me a filter) in my kitchen in the morning while listening to some musicz (thank u to fiona apple for providing the music) has been really special (: highly highly rec

city lights from the plane
There's nothing like seeing the city from a plane windows. Sparkling like stars down there. The little people in their little cars and twinkling homes. Feels so bittersweet and human somehow.

staying up late watching rom coms and delivering commentary via text
More specifically, watching your favorite rom com and then your crush's favorite rom com (is there an adult word for crush), back to back at the same time as they are watching them. But instead of the social exhaustion of video calling you just text while you watch them. Even better you guys like each other mutually, so it should be exhilerating, but they cannot and will not be with you so instead it's just a lesson in your terrible self restraint. Exhilerating anyway. Good movies, good conversation. Unbeatable.
