Boxed water is better?

Boxed Water (3K reviews 4.4 Stars @ Amazon)

Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Some fancy water. It tastes the same though but it IS paper… #betterplanet

I guess this water doesn’t have any weird after taste or filtered taste. It tastes just like the Bay Area water I like. However, at $1 per bottle from website and $2 per bottle from Amazon, I probably wouldn’t buy it if I were to shop for grocery. That said, if I was extremely thirsty and getting a bottle of water from a gas station, I will probably get it if the price point is similar compared to other options.

Taiwan Professional Tea in the Bay Area

Sharing my love with boba! Apparently this is one of the best tea places in Taiwan, and they have several locations in the Bay Area! I already tried it twice already. The tea is very strong!

Thai Brûlée Tornado @ TP Tea

Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thai Tea with Brûlée Cream: Not too sweet because my husband got me 30% sweetness, but the brûlée cream definitely made up for it.
Boba: On the smaller side, but chewy and have the right sweetness

Matcha Brûlée Tornado @ TP Tea

Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Matcha with Brûlée Cream: Not too sweet because my husband AGAIN got me 30% sweetness, but the brûlée cream definitely made up for it. The Matcha is legit for those who enjoys the little kick it gives.
Boba: On the smaller side, but chewy and have the right sweetness

How to eat vegetable without eating vegetable

~ msanglee ~ Leave a comment

We’ve been doing a modified keto diet following what everyone is doing in this facebook group. However, I’m not a veggie person, and after 12 long weeks, I’m definitely not eating as much vegetable as it’s advised.

I’ve been seeing this young barley grass powder in Asian grocery store so I decided to to give this top selling supplement a try to up my veggie intake!

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

I add this to milk / soy milk along with some almond powder, sesame powder, flax seed, and chia seed, and it actually tastes pretty good! It’s not too pricey at $0.375 per sachet. This only has grass powder and nothing else so it sounds healthy. I will definitely keep taking this. I’m giving it only a 4-star because, as a lazy non-vegetable eater, I would like to look for other options that offer more vegetables in a bag…

Califia Salted Caramel Cold Brew Coffee with Almond Milk

Califia Salted Caramel Cold Brew Coffee with Almond Milk

⭐️⭐️⭐️

It’s alright. I can taste a little of salt, a little of caramel, but I would like it sweeter because I’m a sweet tooth. It’s almond milk though so it’s good for lactose intolerant people, but I still think I have stomach ache from this. It also doesn’t wake me up…
