Just be yourself and don't forget what makes you happy.
We ourselves determine happiness. But, wait, food? Yeep, we decide and we also take control of it.
There are many people who seem to be carried away by just following a good mood and eating whatever they want. But don't think about what is actually good or not for the body. Everyone certainly has different body needs. Also, it is adjusted to what the person can or cannot consume.
So, it should be an important responsibility for us not to get carried away by big emotions. Although, we also have to be in a good mood to be able to remain productive in our daily lives.
Again, I'm busy with my new garden project. Also, I prepared some organic fertilizer from organic waste using ingredients from the kitchen. It's tiring but it's a pleasure. Even so, I've been busy and haven't had time to make any more food. So, I'm sorry if you missed my recipe. But I promise, it won't be long 😊
Anyway, as you know, I'm a matcha drink enthusiast, ever since I cut out sugar. Also, I already know about how good matcha's high antioxidant benefits are.
Since then, I have often looked for matcha drinks in several different places to experience different experiences. Sometimes I find that matcha drinks are made with low quality matcha powder so the bitter taste is not authentic. But thankfully I often find delicious matcha lattes for a good mood.
This time, I enjoyed a cup of matcha latte, from Jcoffee. It feels very comfortable and fills my energy after I'm tired of gardening.
You can see for yourself that this matcha Latte has a very green appearance. And, yeeep, this drink is bitter. Moreover, I gave a message to the waiter there not to add any sweeteners.
Glad this drink is absolutely tasty (in my version) because the bitter taste is authentic. Feels like high quality matcha powder. Yeah because the price of this match drink is a bit high, about more than $2, a little more expensive than general cafe but it's satisfying.
It's quite difficult to find a match drink with good bitterness. Huh, delicious bitterness? Yes, it's not just about bitterness. But matcha drink from quality matcha powder ingredients will produce a slightly savory taste.
There are many types of matcha powder. But I have to admit, matcha powder imported from Japan is the best. However, there are several different grades adjusted to the price. The better it is, of course the more expensive it is because the antioxidant content is higher.
Well, actually I chose Matcha Latte for today because I wanted to eat donuts 🤣. So as not to feel guilty, I also paired the donut with a matcha latte.
There are good things we can get from J.C.O store. From their coffee brand (Jcoffee) we will be given free 1 piece of donut with original taste (with powdered sugar or sugar syrup).
So, I don't need to choose more donuts and I only have enough with one piece. A cup of hot matcha latte and original donut is perfect for a good mood and not too much.
But you have to be careful if you visit a pastry and donut shop like this. You need to strengthen yourself to be tempted by all the pleasures of the sweet things displayed in the window 😛
In this shop, it is always busy with visitors. Usually there are more takeaway donut visitors than dine-in. Meanwhile, I decided to take away a box of baby donuts for my little nephews at home.
A box of baby donuts consists of 24 pieces. These small portions are of course perfect for gifts. Also, to avoid excessive portions per person.
Anyway, after coming home from there, I finally checked out my waiting list from a long time 🤣😅🙏 Finally, I bought Matcha Powder, around $4 for 100 grams. It can be used to serve up to 50 cups. The recommended serving is only 5 grams / 1 teaspoon.
I can't wait for this matcha powder to arrive at my house and I will brew the matcha in front of my garden! Until next, on my daily journaling about food, and also gardening activities. Stay healthy!
