sunny day extra foam plz

tomorrow i was supposed to go snowboarding. instead, the sun decided to shine it's sweet, sweet rays into the day and crush my heart into 32,000 of those microscopic-annoying-as-hell jigsaw puzzle pieces. :(! i do not understand! why is it 55 degrees on a winter NIGHT?! it hasn't snowed in long time aaaaaand tomorrow the forecast calls for rain. snowboardin + rain = no thx!

instead, nigeria and i are planning to go snowshoeing! i am muy muy muy excited :)

today, we took advantage of the sun and went to check out brothaaaaa's uw life/campus/seattle and went to this awesome coffee/chai house called trabant. this place kicks ass, especially since they got me to really think deeply about fair trade and what it stands for/means/both impacts it potentially can make and fails to make. maybe i will make a semi-boring-but-serious post about this in the future! i got an americano to taste their coffee naked:

psst! seattle weekly advertising the muse concert i'm goin to in april! my mom bought us tickets for hanukkah :)

anyways, they pay double the fair trade price, which is awwww-sum. this place is the kind of coffee shop that makes a cute lil design in your coffee so that you throw a few more quart-az in the tip jar! hahah. their coffee is delish. and they have SPICY VEGAN CHAI! it inspired us to make homemade chai sans sugar (our family isn't soooo keen on thy sweets). the chai was delish, but i def think it was more sweet than spicy. ours will definitely have a kick! it was super foamy though, so it was more fun to drink than playing a carnival game and winning four JUMBO SIZE stuffed snakes! +8 pts!
