What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months?
I have no issues recording content but much like in writing I hate editing me so 40,000 pictures and videos later I still haven’t created my “documentary” or “real vlog” or finished posting from TThoughts in the Morning segment
I have a great love of “a bevy” as my sister would say and as a self acclaimed “drinks master” here are my favourite drinks by category
Tea – Khoisan Bourbon Vanilla Rooibos Tea – I came into the tea game late but this is the best tea ever and it get extra points because it’s decaf, comes from my Southern Africa aka home and it has many good properties
Coffee – Starbucks Blond Roast – I’ve been having a caffeine intolerance lately because I pretty much stopped drinking coffee during the pandemic (yes remember that awful event) but I love the VIA blond roast. It’s high in caffeine and the right coffee taste for me
Wine – I think my favourite is ice wine. None in particular but I just love sweet wine and I think it’s the pinnacle of sweet wine. I’ll give a s/o to the baco noir by Henry of Pelham incase people argue ice wine isn’t “really” wine
Milk – Why is this on the list? Well we the lactose intolerance girlies will tell you that we like milk but our stomachs are stubborn. My favourite milk is Neilson’s 0% lactose free milk. I like it because it doesn’t change the taste of the drink like some of the other milk alternative beverages
Pop – This preference depends on location. In Canada it’s Canada Dry! I love it and put it in any and everything. I personally feel it should replace maple syrup as the “Canadian food”. If in Zimbabwe it’s cherry plum.
Liquor – I think it’s tequila, Patron to be specific. I have been playing around with gin but I don’t think it’s made its way into being a “favourite” but time will tell
Water – I’m not much of a water drinker. Yes I know I should drink 7/8 glasses but who has the time to go to the bathroom that many times after? However I figured with the allegations that you need water to live 😅 I should pick one. I used to be confused about why drink water when you can drink juice or tea and if you have to drink water why addd bubbles but I will admit I have grown to like the sparkling water from Loblaws. Granted I sometimes add stuff to it but it’s not bad.
Squash/Cordial – Mazoe cream soda is my favourite if it’s available but if not I don’t hate Robinsons berry squash. Both are not easy to source in Canada but we find our ways. It’s one of the things I add to sparkling water but to get some unique drink recipes sign up to my newsletter. 😊
What’s the thing you’re most scared to do? What would it take to get you to do it?
The thing I’m most afraid of doing is changing course in my thinking especially regarding my career. I’ve always been practical and somewhat done what I needed to but now I’ve been considering becoming more of a free spirit.
I’ve been considering taking a break from my 9-5 so that I can travel on a budget and focus on content creation as my 9-5. I already have so much content but working full time leaves no real time or urge to take on tasks that don’t pay.
I think if I had 6 months uninterrupted I would be able to complete my Mona Lisa. I think if I was allowed to control my own time I would be able to be more creative. I think if I was just a little bit more brave, I would take the jump away from stability into the great unknown.
