Modern Farmhouse Eats
Brian got us some “Matcha Lattes” around noon today. They are made with Japanese tea, coconut milk and sugar. I was a bit skeptical, though I have no bias against the color green. I was very pleasantly surprised by how good it was!
It’s supposed to be good for you, as well. It has been said it lowers blood pressure and high cholesterol levels, both of which I have. 👍
The fact that it tasted good, as well, made it a winner for me, and we plan to get some often.
My housecleaning person, Kuhn Nong, is due here from 2:30 till 5:30, so we will leave soon to run some errands and “become scarce” while she does her thing.
The main thing she will notice is that my place looks pretty spacious right now, since the movers came and took the old people-swallowing sofa away. The replacement sofa is not due to be delivered until June 5th, so it’s a good thing I have several chairs and a brand new bed to use until the last piece of furniture we ordered is set up. I have to admit that I was kind of fond of the sweet old sofa and will miss it.
We have some errands, plus Brian tries to find something else in the area we’re going to any given day so that we can see something interesting while we’re in the area. This can be a coffee place, an old shop he remembers, a shop new to him, but found as we walk around. I love the mom and pop type places the best, rather than the fancy modern type stores.
I’m enjoying writing reviews for these places on Google, hoping that a favorable recent review will be a further thank you and might bring them more business. I just wrote reviews for the man who cut my hair and the lady who made my new tote bag.
I hope that you’re having a happy day or evening. It gets confusing sometimes when I’m writing and am on a different day than many of you. 🤣

I hear you about missing the old sofa, Linda. Sometimes I wonder if half of life, the meaning of life, is about “letting go.” Ugh! I feel like we learn, love, get attached, then poof! Gotta change, and let go—like it or not. And I feel angry, sad, and thankful, often all at the same time!
Anyway, yes, your place is now spacious. Cleared for the wonderful new couch to arrive. And waiting patiently. I might dance around a bit just to thank the place!
Oh, and I love matcha tea too! I drink it often. I buy a bag from a mail order company a friend works for to help support her small business.
I love that you’re writing Google reviews! I do that too.

I will take your advice and dance – plus continue doing my yoga stretches – to celebrate the temporary spaciousness. I’m looking forward to the new while sighing about the old. The new one doesn’t have arms that have collapsed in the middle,m making a spot for my glasses, my book, my phone, and a bottle of water. I may have to figure out where to put all that….🤣. Somehow I’m not surprised that you’re already enjoying the Matcha Tea!

https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/matcha-latte. This gives directions for how to make Matcha Latte hot. Brian and I prefer it cold, since it’s hot and humid here. You would mix up the ingredients and add ice to a tall glass. You have to keep stirring it or swiveling the glass to keep the mixture from separating.
