Common lantana
Barbeton daisy

blue flowers are so rare
even if they are blue, their color is more halfway into purple already

as usual, how english is used in east asia continues to be amusing (is the mother bullying us into eating noodles?? 😂)

though i’m not sure about calling any women’s health product “womanizer” 😅

but anyways, the ✨FATURE✨ belongs to us, dreamers! 😤

bro went to the cake factory and stood in line to get these even though we saw them on sale at a Watsons yesterday 😅

but ChiaTe is No. 1 for a reason
I’ve tried other brands but those are always too floury or too sweet

this one is just right 👌😌
I thought the the cranberries were hawthorns at first

Ximen is so much livlier than when I was here 15 years ago and back then, it was already quite busy cuz of its nightmarket

you’ll find a lot of accessory shops here and gachapons and advertisements for games and such

if I knew my bro wanted to have yakiniku tonight, i wouldn’t have ordered that 🍔 earlier

and i just washed my hair this morning but now i smell like barbecue all over 😭😅

the meat 🥩 was good tho
I got the wagyu platter 🤤

restaurant is called 燒肉ChaCha
they also have a 🥗 bar, unlimited drinks & 🍦

tried this tangyuan place next to the laundromat and it’s just what i needed cuz i was feeling 🥱 after thar 🍹

you can order all sorts of combinations

mine had ice, tapioca, red bean, and sweet potato while mum had one with tofu pudding

refreshing~ 😋✨

laundry day 🧺 (220 NT which is 7 USD per wash cycle)

went across the street to get a 🍔, spicy chicken wings and a daytime cocktail 🍹 while waiting

curiously, it’s called 父母 but nothing of its interior really reflects that and seems to try to imitate an American bar more

food is good tho 😊

view from 88th floor of Taipei 101 Observatory Tower

got the sunset so will take photos of what the city looks like at night another time

they also gave us vouchers for snacks so i bought these egg cakes: red bean taiyaki (smaller taiyaki i’ve ever had haha) and custard lucky turtle-shell cakes
December 15, 2025 at 9:54 AM
At Taipei 101 now though we still have an hour before we go up

Food court is huge tho

I wonder how the Mister Donut here tastes 🤔 but they look very festive at least 😊

omg, do i really have to leave?

i just want to live in the homestyle section of the mall 😭😂

also, what is this? a beanbag chair for your phone? why does my phone live a better life than i do? 😑😅
December 15, 2025 at 5:09 AM
and this is what we ordered:

super-ball meatball pasta (a little sweet)

caramelized popcorn dacqioise (i loved it~! 😆💖)

reserve toffenut macchiato and almond honey latte

pretty good for a Starbucks 😊
December 15, 2025 at 4:40 AM
Starbucks flagship store at Dream Plaza

thought we were going to have to queue to get in but it’s actually not that busy atm so yay! 😁

honestly, Asian Starbucks is just leagues above American Starbucks for the variety in food and drinks alone

this one even serves alcohol 🍾 oooh~ 😮
December 15, 2025 at 4:35 AM
omurice for dinner

pork cutlet and beef patty

the beef patty was better

there was cheese in the pork cutlet and i didn’t like that 🥴
December 14, 2025 at 12:44 PM
dessert!

tangyuan with sesame filling in almond soup

and steamed rice cake with red bean paste

it’s winter now so it’s ok to eat more to warm up 😋
December 14, 2025 at 5:23 AM
xiaolongbao at Dian Shui Lou 😊

types are minced pork, fresh gourd + shrimp and minced crab roe + meat

the pork + bamboo + bean curd + vegetable soup was very nourishing too
haven’t drank warm soup in days~ ☺️

Miniature rooms at the Miniature Museum of Taiwan

more than the dolls, I like all the details that went into decorating these rooms

especially the tea sets 🫖, furniture 🛏️ and chandeliers 😊
