drank Caramel Matcha by Red Leaf Tea
1220 tasting notes

I prefer this iced with milk more than hot. I needed something good after I just went off on a commenter on a Formula 1 blog.

Don’t mix sports and politics. Of course first of all because it looks like sport is a pawn, but also because someone has to take the situation and one up it with stupid. Someone will always drag Obama into it, and in this case it was comparing “a disregard for the constitution” and also the healthcare act to human rights violations in Bahrain. Last night there was a petrol bomb incident involving some mechanics from a team. So you’re telling me that not governing a country based on a document from the 18th century is comparable to surprise petrol bombs and tear gas. RIGHT. Sometimes I think studying political science and economics is the worst decision I have ever made because now I want to slap so many people.

To stop myself from wanting to slap people (until I move to Paris with my job with the OECD because at 3am this morning I decided that’s what I am doing with my life), I made an iced matcha latte. I also always want to type matte latte. Actually, given the color of the drink, that might work.

I still love this so much. I pretty much only drink coconut milk, but when I use half a teaspoon of matcha, I don’t get the coconut taste. In fact, with this, I’d be pretty fooled that I hadn’t put cream in here just like if I was making caramel.

I am trying to think of a way I could work this into a caramel candy recipe that’s in the Baked Explorations cookbook. I think maybe a visit to Super H Mart is in order to see if there are any matcha caramels there to try out first! But I think that would be amazing.

Also the Atlantic like, insulted corgis in an article so I would also like to slap them. KEEP SIPPING, AMANDA, KEEP SIPPING.

Sounds really aggravating. Arguing with people on the internet is something I had to stop awhile ago to keep my blood pressure down. :)

NOT CORGIS! :( They’re so adorable.

They were trying to say the internet only likes corgis because they are ridiculous like the internet and were trying to compare them to other dogs. SO WRONG.

I usually reply to people who say stupid things and then never go look at it again. Except stupid YouTube always emailed me the reply from some idiot. Did you know 19 years in Winnipeg is like 50 years in Atlanta? Very scientific stuff.

I don’t argue on the internet either. I know people can have passionate opinions, but I just figure I could do something better…….like drink tea!

Besides far too many of the blogs/comments are so divisive and negative, I just try to be more positive, and sometimes that means not commenting at all…….ya know?! :))

momo

I couldn’t let this one go. I have screencapped it because it turns out I hate the constitution. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2r2o4TjNi1qz5e5oo1_1280.png
