The drip coffee at home wasn't doing it for me anymore, and the "stovetop espresso" still didn't satisfy me like a proper shot from an espresso machine.
So, I took the plunge and bought a machine for my own kitchen and have been using regular, store bought espresso grounds while I practiced my shot-pulling technique. I knew there'd be a learning curve, and I didn't want to waste good beans while I figured it out. But now that I've got the hang of it, I'm ready to venture out and try some higher quality coffee.
That brought be back to Tuesday.
chasing the light
18 April 2022

There's about an hour of time each day where the sun pokes through our patio door and creates a sliver of sunlight in our living room. Raven loves to lay in it and sunbathe when the boys are off doing their own thing in their room, but lately, Gabriel has been strategically placing toys in her sunspot.

I stopped by this cute little coffee shop while I was out a few days ago, and I had to restrain myself from not taking dozens of pictures.
Also, I tried an affogato (hazelnut) for the first time ever, and wow, I've been missing out.

A few weeks ago, I got an email from Google advising my free google workspace account (the one i use for this blog) would no longer be free. So, I spent all afternoon a couple days later migrating my domain and email host to a new server. It was a long and tedious process, about which I knew very little. But thanks to the help of a few reddit threads and online tutorials, I was able to figure it out.
you're doing great, babe.

I snuck away for a couple hours this Valentine's Day to nurture my relationship with myself.

Love this city. It's slow-paced and laid-back, and the food/drink establishments haven't disappointed me yet.

I tried Lomography 800 for the first time and whoa, the way it captures the blues in the sky has me all googly-eyed.

my 2022 notion setup
25 January 2022
It's been a year since I shared my Notion setup, and i'm noticing it's getting more traction lately - probably because Notion is becoming more popular among productivity enthusiasts.
While I don't consider myself someone who's enthusiastic about productivity, I do have goals, and I like getting stuff done. For that reason, Notion has been an incredible tool for me this past year.
