On a Brighter Note - Zhanghe 14.5

On the morning of Aug 22, I went to La Morning, my breakfast spot. Usually I try something new or get a slice of thick-bread and peanut butter (which is quite filling on its own if you're not too-too hungry. Since I figured that it was my last day at Zhanghe, I thought I'd change the game. This is what I ordered:

On top we have, 花生 (peanut), underneath 巧克力 (chocolate), and to drink 鮮奶茶 (condensed or evaporated milk tea).

When I first learned what they were, I knew I had to try what I did. So, on the final day, I put the two together. She asked puzzled "你要兩個嗎?" (you want two?). "對" (correct) I replied. Mind you, this was the same person that i had to admit I spoke English to a few days earlier. Anyway, this was the outcome, a Reese Peanut Butter and Chocolate Sandwich:

It tasted good, not as good as I had thought when the idea first came to me though. Both the peanut butter and chocolate spreads that they use are really rich, and didn't mesh too well. But, it was fun to do, hehe.

I walked out after finishing, and received a nod of approval from the woman, a 謝謝 (thank you), and a byebye. #AchievementUnlocked, she figured out what this crazy Canuck was up to. I suppose - not all decisions we make are boneheaded, haha.

Later in the day, after that fiasco in Zhanghe 14, I connected with Astrid. Together we sat at Ok Mart for about an hour, and chatted about music. Last night she went to see Imagine Dragons. Because "Radioactive" is so popular in Taiwan (you hear it everywhere), it was stuck in my head all day. We'd be talking and I'd slip "Radioactive" lyrics into the conversation, haha. I also found that she loves lyricism, one of her favourite lyric being "I'm sorry, mother... I'm sorry I let you down", from their song "Amsterdam". And it really resonated with me too, but for different reasons. It was nice to talk to someone so passionate about song meanings and lyricism.

After our chit-chat, and other tasks, we went grocery shopping. And after that, I treated Astrid to some cheesecake. Here's some pictures of what we got:

Am I still hungry?
