Living Alone Diaries ｜ Days in my life, my daily routine, exploring williamsburg

Good morning, you guys. I'll take you guys along with me to make my morning drinks and my supplements. But first, we're making matcha. Making a matcha americano. I'm starting to speak now. I'm gonna make my supplements. Forgot I don't do this every day, but some days when I do remember, I like to do bone broth in the morning. This is in the microwave, forgot. I also like to add salted sea salt just a little bit. There you have it. I have my four drinks. the celtic sea salt really does it too. ready to go to the gym. today is back day. i just did corn. i actually air fried this and chicken balls with japanese barbecue sauce. these are ground chicken and then i have breakfast sausages also air fried and then i boiled chicken breasts and i put salt and pepper and i put the celtic sea salt. really ground. salt pieces that are actually common in korea i think. spring onions and i also have red onions but i think i want to make them into pickled onions. but this makes my life so much easier to have all my main ingredients prepped up like this. so i'm having a lot of hormonal acne right And I did get tretinoin and this other acne gel. But I don't think it's working because this is like a hormonal issue. It's not like a topical kind of solution. It's not a solution for just topicals. Like this is internal. I feel like I need like hormonal solutions. Another beautiful day today. I'm so excited to go on my morning walk and get coffee. It's not open. Just cash. Going to get coffee. I don't know if I'll bring much stuff. I think I'll just bring my keys and earphones. I love my new Asics. These are my favorite shoes. Has some great keys. Waxie is also a really good bagel shop. That's actually one of my top three favorite bagels. spots in New York. Apollo Bagels is number one. I would honestly say Black Seed is number two, but only in select locations. Really cute dog stores too because there's so many dogs here. That's gonna be on the left. Okay, I'm back home and about to go to Cycle. It's in like 25-ish minutes, so I am gonna take a pre-workout snack. I make these like energy balls. They're like rolled Cold Oats. um smashed um dates and cacao nibs and sunflower seeds real good but i'm gonna um deciding between which milk to use i've been really loving the banana milk i discovered this back in april and now they have it at coffee shops at like Blackstone in the West Village and Love Cafe also has it so that's really exciting It tastes so good. It's made with natural bananas. It's only made with water, organic bananas, and organic sunflower seeds. So it's super clean, no added sugar. The sugar, like the sweetness is from the bananas, but this one's made with honey, almonds, and filtered water. So yeah, I don't know which one to do. I think I'll do the almond. I already added milk in my coffee, but they didn't I didn't get enough milk, so. It's like very watered down because all the ice melted. i also don't like when coffee shops don't do the espresso to water or espresso to milk ratio well and it's just like heavily watered down or milked down so i saw a tiktok where people said sometimes they would just order like an iced latte with less milk so that the espresso is stronger so that might be a hack but then people were complaining to just order an iced cappuccino but some cafes don't do So, and cappuccinos, they have a foam, so it's different. I don't know, maybe I should buy a coffee machine. But part of the fun is going out to the coffee, but going to the coffee shops is part of the fun of mornings. And that was really good. Also, I don't know if I did a proper supplement video, but I recently added this to my supplement stack. It's psyllium husk, but it's a whole husk fiber, and it looks like oat flakes. it's just like very flaky and i think it's because it's the whole husk fiber so it actually tastes really good it kind of tastes like oats or like oat bran and i love adding this to like with ice and milk and just shaking and just drinking it like that and psyllium husks like sometimes they can be like there can be added sugar in some brands and sometimes it's just very thick and like not really a fun experience to drink but this one i really like and actually also add this to like my baked goods or like oatmeal um literally anything and it doesn't taste like anything and it almost tastes oaty or nutty in a way if that makes sense Um, I also like this collagen peptides. I don't know if I would buy it again though. I like Paleo Valley's bone broth protein. and that's also collagen so um i think i like the taste of that better because it is sweeter and i love the vanilla flavor this one is vanilla but it's very subtle and i don't really like how it mixes and it gets very like it like clumps together it doesn't really mix well so yeah but i have it so i have to finish it the reason why i got it though is because it is hydrolyzed so it kind of absorbs into your body quicker and more efficiently um and it has all natural flavors it's actually sweetened with monk fruit um and the asian term for it is luo han guo if you guys speak chinese i think that's chinese but yeah i also love this um cacao powder it's like my night sweet cap i love finishing the night with a hot cocoa literally it's like my favorite thing i look forward to this almost every dinner almost after for every dinner. And it's literally just organic cacao powder, natural flavors, also sweetened with monk fruit extract. It has chamomile, magnesium, L-theanine, and electrolytes. And it's really important to have electrolytes at night, too, because you're not drinking water for, like, seven to nine hours, so you're going to be dehydrated. But this one helps you hydrate overnight, and all the really good calming ingredients like L-theanine, chamomile, magnesium helps you sleep. And honestly, I just take it because it tastes so good, but also all the added benefits are really great too. A major perk of living in the U.S. is there's a lot of like healthy supplements and foods and pantry items, and I think I will miss that if I ever leave the U.S., but yeah. That's my little haul. These are my two actually top. Yeah. Yeah. They also have I don't know what. Since when? Oh my goodness. They also have a split 59. I think it's like an LA brand. I've been wanting to feel their workout gear. Pretty soft. A bunch of different unique brands that I've never heard of. I'm going to brush it. These are cool, like, work casual comfy pants. They also have this Bori top that I was... Is it Yuri or Bori? I don't know. But they have this top that I was thinking of a few months ago. There's this person, woman, playing the clarinet, like, every morning. And she's been doing it, like, a few times now. Every time I pass by Equinox. Just gonna chill here for a bit. Wow, is this not a stunning view or what? This pigeon is awfully close to me, I think it's staring at me. Wait, they're all staring at me. This is my cute little workout bag. It's a cute small duffel, got it like three years ago. There's always people playing volleyball here, it makes me want to play. But beach volleyball is so difficult. Oh my gosh, someone just got married. This is so cute, oh my goodness. They're all clapping. I got my baguette, it's pretty big. There was a lot of good reviews on the train sandwich at this place called, I don't know if that's how you pronounce it, but wow, that looks great. They have really good reviews on this. Also their matcha looked really green, so I might try it. First bite. Wow, that's really good. Oh, I think I know why it's so good. It's the sauce that makes it so good. on the bottom i don't know what it is it's like a tomato based sauce but it's so good honestly summer is for baguettes and sandwiches it just hits so much better the arugula on this is so good such a perfect such a good pairing i'm sure because i did a massage and i did hot pilates in the morning so and then i was like out all day so I did a mid afternoon late afternoon shower and honestly I kind of really like midday showers like right before dinner because I remember whenever I used to travel somewhere tropical like the girls and I the family we would just shower before our dinner and it was like the best feeling ever and it kind of feels like I'm on vacation when I do that so I want to Maybe start doing that so I feel like I'm on vacation, but it's so rejuvenating to just wind down really early in the evening. I'm looking very yellow right now, but I just want to show you guys this Chanel, Coco Chanel thing I got on the streets. They're passing out these newspaper magazines. It's so cute. I think I'll use it as home decor. but there's a Chanel store opening up in Williamsburg so i think they're just advertising it. my dinner is protein pasta with tons of fiber in it with just salt and butter and a little bit of cottage cheese. i'm making a cherry blueberry blackberry spinach avocado and almond butter smoothie right now. and she goes in the blender. i feel like i should have done We've done less milk, it's very liquidy. but it looks like acai because from the cherries and blueberries. really good. i topped it off with cinnamon. i'm just gonna add chocolate chips because chocolate chips are really good with smoothie bowls and like acai bowls. so yum! this is my sweet treat.
