Refreshing Tired Minds with Yummy Treats

Take a break. Enjoy the yummy treats.

We often forget that jobs that rely on thoughts with ideas that must be constantly fresh actually drain more energy than jobs that only rely on muscles. Have you ever thought about that? It often happens around me, people around me think that I won't get tired with my current job because I only do online work.

In fact, the online work that I am currently doing, including building my YouTube account, is something that really drains energy. Jobs whose complexity cannot be seen by the eye actually make me easily tired.

As a freelancer, we must be smart in knowing our mental and physical condition. When should we stop, when should we take a break. When can we continue the work with the various ideas that we have prepared. Nothing is easy indeed. But if we are used to it and we have mastered it, then it will be easier for us to go through the days.

Like my condition in the past few months. I have been busy building my YouTube account to share more about how to garden organically. Indeed, I have not received any income from the YouTube account. But I want long-term benefits through the account. Not just about material things. However, I want to build more benefits for the people around me. Especially, about how to utilize the land in the yard to produce organic vegetables for home consumption.

This makes me feel exhausted. At first I often forced my body to continue doing the things I like, but in the end my body said otherwise. That made me have to really take a break from my gardening work and some time ago I had a staycation. Currently, I have not started gardening either.

Indeed, there are still some plants such as tomatoes and chilies that still need to be taken care of continuously. But I have given my trust to my husband to help me continue taking care of my plants. For example, watering the plants daily if it doesn't rain. Luckily, it has been raining for the past few days so that the activity of watering the garden can be skipped.

Well, this afternoon is quite bright after it rained this morning. Then, after lunch, I decided to go to my favorite cafe that I have visited often. This time, I wanted to try something new in this cafe because I often go to this place.

So, I have tried almost all the menus. Luckily, there are some menus that I have never tried, when I browse their menus on their social media accounts.

I enjoyed the air around the outdoor area of ​​this cafe which looks refreshing. You can see a small canal at the end there with a nice view of the sky and clouds. I feel lucky to come this afternoon because the weather is good.

Currently, I choose the outdoor area because I want to feel closer to something green.

Something green is good for the eyes, not just the dollar hehehe. The big trees around me bring cool air when exposed to the wind.




Thai Tea

Have you ever drunk Thai tea Dream before? A few years ago, Thai tea went viral in my country because of its delicious, creamy taste. With the typical thick Thai tea that creates an orange color.

Typical Thai black tea mixed with milk, also mixed with several spices such as Star Anise, Cardamom and others. That makes the color of Thai tea orange.

Sweet, creamy and warming. Even though the weather is currently sunny, I always choose warm drinks. For me, warm drinks will open my mind wider to new ideas for my work.

Singapore Fried Fish Cakes

Singapore Fried Fish Cakes, as known as Otak-otak Singapura in Indonesian.

At first glance, if you look at it, it will look like sausages. Maybe because the manufacturing process is similar. These Singapore Fried Fish Cakes are made from fish puree with a mixture of flour and other ingredients. Then served fried. They also resemble fried meatballs.

This is my first time trying this snack. I didn't expect the texture to be very chewy but soft. The fish flavor is very strong which makes this snack taste even more delicious.

Whoa, my tongue feels happy! Just like my happy feelings!

What a yummy treat! I am happy with Break Time that runs like a time that refreshes my mind and body. Thank you for those of you who always support me.

Well, don't forget to watch the videos on my YouTube channel. I will upload my latest in a few days because I'm currently on break time. See you!

Taking a break, that's what I need the most, but I remember that I have to work a lot to support my family, and I remember that I can't rest, but yes, I recognize that I need it.

I'm glad for your project of building your YouTube account, you have to put in a next publication the link to follow you.

That dish you are presenting looks very simple but I can also appreciate that it must be very delicious 😋, I can only wish you a good meal.

Being used to working makes it difficult for us to take time to rest.

Oh, thanks for your suggestion, in the next post I will add a video link from my youtube.

Have a great day!

Lol. Lucky your husband. Nature is his main helper.

Hey, I totally get your point. And yes, you should take your breaks and enjoy nice moments in places like this and with delicious foods...this will bring you fresh ideas. And no, it's not all about money. It's about building, and it's also about delegating. In this way you will gain a very important, scarce and primordial resource: time.

In that kind of place, it is really truly that you really have a good time spending at the place Ma'am @anggreklestari. :) This is the first time to see that kind of snacks and looks like really delicious Ma'am. :)

Rest is always necessary, especially if you work so hard. You have multiple tasks, how can you take on so much, and I could also see that the orchard was growing. This work of cultivating was perhaps the most satisfying, despite being outdoors and in the sun. Nice place and the menu looks appetizing, start working whenever you feel recovered. Lean on your husband for the work in the garden. He will surely do very well to lighten the load. Happy week dear @anggreklestari. 🥰❤️❤️

Thanks for your visit.
I enjoy the job even though it's sometimes tiring but that's human :)

Oh, my husband is happy to help me anytime
Hey, have a great day!

Yes, it's true, sometimes people think that those of us who work without using muscle are always said to be doing good work. even though working in front of a laptop is very, very tiring.

It's great that you have a helper now that you trust with your plants. Even well-meaning family members may want to assist, but they want to do it their way or how they think it should go instead of listening to your advice.

Now with a trusted helper, you can relax a bit more and tend to your YouTube channel and take more breaks to try out new things.

Thanks for sharing. Take care.

It is indeed difficult to find the right helper to take care of the plants in my garden.

I am grateful that in my spare time, my husband watches me take care of the garden, and he has begun to understand gardening little by little.

Then, we also routinely go out to eat when I don't have time to cook like now :)

Take care of you :)

I am fond of the white and gray color of that cafe Ma'am @anggreklestari
The wall design on the stairs is also very nice and attractive.

I wish I can try that snacks somewhere in the place I live. It looks very delicious.😊
