1. 0650am outside my apartment
2. the perfect afternoon tea – a silky brew of gen mai cha latte and a green tea donut (filled with a creamy, luscious custard)
3. japanese wishing tree
4. palm trees never get old
an early start to the day (0650am to be precise) is never looked forward to, but the beautiful sunrise gave me pause from thoughts of the flurry of tasks i had to get through that morning. sometimes all we need is to be still, and i am hardly ever that on the weekdays.
so i devoted the afternoon to just that – lounging outside a cafe watching the world go by and soaking up the surfeit of socal sunshine (can’t take this for granted, it is technically still winter after all). something simple that feels infinitely luxurious. even if i now have to go back to finally organizing my haphazard box-strewn apartment (which i’ve been putting off for weeks), it’s okay, my mind is finally in the right place.
have a relaxing weekend, folks!
