Mad, mad cravings this weekend
. I think it probably started with ice cream cookies, you know, the ones with vanilla ice cream wedged in between two chocolate chip cookies. And then it switched over to spicy Mexican chips, and now..matcha
. I would've probably threw a bitch fit if I didn't get any of the food that I craved (thank you Calvin
). Now, onto my rant about how much I love matcha. For those of you who don't know what it is, I'll kindly provide you with a googled definition
of matcha. Matcha refers to finely-milled Japanese green tea (courtesy of wikipedia). It's super yummy and it's supposed to be really healthy, which is always a major plus
. A lot of people don't really like the bitter taste, but I personally don't mind it much. I used to drink just the instant matcha latte's before I read how Eki of Ekiblog.com drinks her matcha. She has a lot of really cute stuff on her blog as well, so go check it out
She also has a cute shop where she sells handmade swarovski jewelry and other things (Ekilove.com). I stopped by Mitsuwa to grocery shop for ingredients, tried her version and loved it. So yummy
. The condensed milk really added a lot of sweetness. I definitely recommend anyone who likes matcha to try out her recipe
. I also picked up green tea-flavored mochi and ended up eating the whole thing today
.
Please excuse the bad manicure
