Foodie Friday: Sweet Potato Latte

sweet potato latte

When I was in South Korea I found this cafĂ© and they have sweet potato latte on their menu. Of course I ordered it right away. And it didn’t disappoint me at all. It’s sweet and savory. And it makes you full. I’m no sweet potato addict, but I like it quite a lot. In Indonesia there is a lot of traditional snack using sweet potato as main ingredient. And my mother used to make it for me. 
Anyway, when I back to Indonesia I tried to make the sweet potato latte. And it is super-duper easy. All you need is sweet potato and milk. Here is how to make it:
  1. Peel the sweet potato and cut it into big chunk
  2. Steam or boil it until fork tender
  3. Set aside until it cold
  4. Put it on food processor or blender, add some milk (you can adjust the amount of the milk based on your preference), and let the machine do their work. 
  5. Done! You can add ice block or just put it in the fridge. 
I find it perfect even without sugar so I think it’s good for your diet. Check nutritional benefits of sweet potato at positive healthwellness. Please make sure to let me know how do you think when you try it :) 

Tips: If you live in dorm and don’t have access to a blender just use you fork and mash it. Or you can use a grater.

I'm not a Postcard Person

Postcard


For me postcard is a memento, a souvenir, not a way of communicating. Therefor I’m prefer a letter to communicate. Call me ancient, I don’t care.Since I love fancy stationary and of course fancy letter set. Nothing more beautiful than a set of letter paper with matching envelope. Don’t you agree? And I like more privacy which you don’t get if you write a postcard. Well, I know they have different purpose. But still I don’t get used to the idea to write on a postcard. I do love cute postcard though. But if you left me in a bookstore full of postcard and letter set, I will exit with a handful of letter set and just a few postcard.

Yoga

I feel my physical strength decline as I become older. And I start to hate sweating.

I hate running and prefer walking. But going out means I have to change clothes. Such pain in the ass. Yea, I know I'm only twenties but still.... That leaves me with indoor activity. so I choose yoga.
But I don't go to a class because as I stated that requires me to changes clothes. Fortunately there's an app in my phone that can help me to practice yoga at my own room. Although I have to move all the thing to make a room since my room is so small. It's fun though. You can choose your preferable class and mostly the basic class are free. Yeay! *give me applause*

Download for your android phone here! :)

Tuesday Date




Let me introduce you to my date for today, she's none other than my cousin. Before she going back to her campus in another city, I ask her to go on a date with me. It's really been a long time since we hangout together. Kinda miss when she was a high schooler and we can hangout anytime.

Can you guess where are we?
