I hope you are having a lovely start to the week <3 I have also just come to the realisation that this is the second last Monday of the holidays and I have done no preparation for the new school year...
Anyways, since my last blog post I have tried so many new places and I actually vlogged a lot of my outings but those will never be shown hahaha, watching back on them were not so cute -_-
Burgers
My new kitten.. we named him Chuck (as in Chuck Bass from GG) and he is yet to make his debut on my Instagram; if I can get him still for a photo....smh
Really authentic ice-cream
Frank Ocean (this is a reoccurring phase)
Nails
Exercise clothing - although I have no motivation to exercise

Ok, so my "haul" type, review on my favourite drinks: #thirsty
*ps the very fancy, iconic Babooshka Bar Krispy Kreme milkshake is not included because rather than being called a drink, it is a meal for a family of 4 !! but it still deserved this mini mention ;)
1. Little Angel - this place deserves my paragraph long analysis. !Warning! It is home to the LIQUID NITROGEN AFFOGATO and omg it is honestly the most heavenly drink. Personally, I'm not a huge coffee drinker - half a cup of a weak latte is probably my limit. I love how they have the ice-cream separate from the coffee shot so you can control its strength. They have cool flavours including : hot butter popcorn, pandan and cookies and cream... So I tried the popcorn flavour to change it up. 5 stars!! Little Angel does a beautiful VIOLET HOT CHOCOLATE, this was actually recommended to me and it was very smooth and the flavour had nice balance. Please please please check this place out, it deserves more customers!!
2. Toastface Grillah - this small alleyway is home to ToastFace Grillah and Henry Saw... so it is always the hardest decision to decide where to grab a quick drink. They make just a classic, cold iced chocolate and it is very refreshing. No cream but it doesn't need it because it is just simple and light. <333
3. Tropico - time and time again I mention Tropico in my blog posts. It is my favourite beach cafe as I have mentioned before and it never fails with its drinks. My goal is to one day walk along the beach long enough to actually reach this cafe (by foot not car) and order my green smoothie ahaha.
4. Henry Saw - this place has become a regular visit, I at least go there once or twice a week... I think I missed out on my weekly Strawberry Fields smoothie and I was reminiscing through photos on my camera roll of the iconic strawberries on the straw. This is the place where I first discovered cold drip coffee and you can order it with milk (almond or regular) or sparkling water - both tasting quite lovely. The chocolate peanut butter was also really nice but I will always go back to the STRAWBERRY FIELDS <3
5. Tao Cafe - they have a wide range of mocktails and they are sooo good! Some might say this is bias as I do work at one of the four Taos in Perth..but these make me want to work at the Subiaco store (and just drink these all day long) ! They also just released their smoothie range which I am super keen to try out :D and their Cafe Suda is my favourite drink ever! It's coffee with condensed milk and it really wakes you up (and keeps you up until 3am)..
6. The Brooklyn Lounge - this bar has some really awesome super shakes. We ordered s'mores and the TWINKIES super shake made us feel like we were in America aha. They are very, very indulgent and can be shared - or you can have one to yourself;) I have to say that this place is the highlight of Claremont and you should all definitely try it out <3
Hope you guys enjoyed this review that I have been working on for a while x
