DIY: Caffè Latte

Hullo guys,
it's me again. Couple months ago I've learnt how to make caffè latte. And after this rediculously long time it crossed my mind that I could write it down and create this easy DIY project for you.
It's definitely worth your time!
I love this type of coffee. It's good-looking, very tasty and not even hard to make. C:
So let's begin!

Ingredients
  • 1 or 2 teaspoons of soluble coffee
  • about 50 ml of water
  • about 200 ml of milk
Optional: teaspoon of cocoa or another decorative yummies

Equipment
  • mixer or beater
Total time: 10 minutes

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Step 1
So first bring the water to a boil. Then put the coffee in some cup (preferably little jug or cup with a spout, you'll need to pour the coffee later), pour the boiling water in it and let the coffe dissolve.

Step 2
Pour the milk in a small pot and heat the milk on a stove for a while (it doesn't have to boil). When the milk is warm, turn off the stove and whisk the milk with your mixer for about one minute untill you create a foam on the surface of your milk. 

Note: The foam is very important because it's the thing that keeps the coffe on the surface. When you don't create enough of the foam, you can't make the "double-colour" effect and your coffe will mix up with the milk as usual.

Step 3
So here comes the trickiest part. Now pour your warm frothed milk in a sufficiently large glass (!! make sure it's not too hot, otherwise you could break the glass. Same with the coffee !!). Then take your coffee cup and pour the coffee SLOWLY and carefully in the glass too. The coffee should keep on the top (Again - if it doesn't, you probably didn't whisk the milk long enough and so you don't have enough foam).


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Optional
Sprinkle the top with some cocoa (or basically anything else you have), it's up to you and your creativity!
If you like coffees a bit sweeter, you can add some sugar it the milk and in the coffee before mixing it together.
Oh yeah, and cookies are also a good match ;)

Et voilà!
Your beautiful and delicious caffè latte is ready!

Bon appetite!

ANDY WARHOL, POOLS AND BURGERS

Andy Warhol, "the genious of self-advertising"


Hullo guys!
I was on Andy Warhol’s „I’m Okay“ exhibition today!
It
was
BRILLIANT
I was (and I still am) so excited about it! I thought Andy Warhol’s work is cool but it’s acutually totally  amazing. I really loved it.

And I also had my first vodka shot yesterday with my gorgeous friend. Now I know how it feels to be a little drunk (I can get drunk quite quickly, trust me) :D Cool experience.
And we watched Pulp Fiction! Wow, definitely recommend you, if you haven’t seen it aready!

But back to the exhibition!
Surprisingly we could take photos there (YAY) so I basically have a photo of everything. I picked the most presentable ones and I’m gonna put them here so you can also enjoy some of this genuine and imaginative art!

So here’s the very first part of the exhibion. „Campbells“ soup cans. Wooow this is just so simple and yet so juicy. It definitely catches your attention at the first sight.
But that goes for Warhol’s art in general.

You will probably know the next one.
Warhol’s famous screenprints of Marilyn Monroe. They come in many colours and variations. Some were in cold colours, some in warm, some were combinated and some were in very warm colours (glaring, if you want) and those neon Marilyns were the ones personally loved the most.

John Lennon - Menlove Ave





The next thing I have to mention is Andy’s partnership with many and many great bands from 60s and 70s. The Velvet Underground, Rolling Stones, John Lennon (Beatles)… He mostly designed their album covers and produced their records.
In this part of the exhibition you can see some of his most famous creations.


me and The Velvet Underground:D

♫✿ EVEN MORE ARTISTIC ✿♫


Hullo guys,
I wanted to talk about something more artistic this time. And what could be more artistic than
A R T
Because I am interested in art. Any kind of art.
And the folowing question is: What is art?
"Art is a part of human culture, in the broad sense of the word a useful skill that not everyone does control and it might possibly need to be learned."
...

Okay. For me it's just another way of expressing my true self.

♫UP-TO-DATE NEWS♫

Hullo guys!
I thought it would be nice to concentrate on something different for a change. Since I'm going to The 1975 concert in October (oh man im actually going to the 1975 concert in october!!!!!!!!), I thought it could be interesting to talk about some other current news from the music world.
So sit back and let's get to it!

♩♬♪♫♩♬♪♫♩♬♪♫♩♬♪♫♩♬♪♫♩♬♪♫♩♬♪♫♩♬♫♩♬♫♩♬

THE GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL
The very first thing I should mention - no, no, I have to mention - is the Glastonbury Festival which takes place in Pilton (England). It actually ends this afternoon but maybe I'll entice you to go next year. Still, we need to talk about this one!
If you are from such Narnia as I am and you didn't hear about this legendary festival so far, be sure to read on!
The Glastonbury festival is the biggest festival in the entire world (!) and it's held in Pilton since 1970. Throughout history, such legends as Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Oasis, David Bowie, U2 and so on appeared on the glorious stages. And even now, the festival abounds with today's greats. Every person gets their money's worth, because the Glastonbury Festival is multi-genre. See for yourself. I quarantee you'll find your cup of tea!
PS: Oh, and you can meet Ema Watson there if you're lucky.

RELIGION AS AN INSTRUMENT OF MORALIZATION?

Hullo guys,
here I am again, with another unappreciated article, trying my best to share at least some of my deeper thoughts with you. Sorry I took so long. Won't happen again.
Okay let's be honest here, it probably will happen again.
It'll definitely happen again.
Apologize in advance.
Sorry.


_________________________________________________________

Well, let’s move to today’s topic.

To begin with, I confess I’ve been trying to come up with a good subject for weeks and I really couldn’t think of anything worthwhile. After a long effort I finally found something.
It was a quiz. A simple-looking quiz named "Who you are really?"
And I was curious (yeah, and bored) so I did it.

And my result was:

And it made me smile.
I guess it sounds very moronic for non-religious people and yes, I know this is probably just some random result everyone gets and it's very likely usual... And yet, it touched me a bit. Somewhere deep in my heart. And suddenly I knew what I was gonna write about. And for a little while everything seemed crystal clear.

I know many of you guys probably won't agree with me. You'll call me naive, pathethic, stupid.
A lot of people from my country aren't believers. They judge or don't accept any religion in general. I find this very naive, pathetic and stupid. (i mean people judging believers for their faith. I'm totally cool with atheistic people.) This denial has most likely something to do with our history.
And yet, quite many of people from my country are believers. That probably has something to do with our hostory too.
I guess I can't say I'm exactly a Christian, though I grow up in a christian family. I often think of suicide, self-harm or killing and that's not very christian, is it?
But I do strongly believe in God. And I don't like society's idea of believers, religions or God himself (or herself?) in general.
I know what you think of us. I know it too well, trust me.

STH ABOUT ME I GUESS

Hullo everyone,
I found this on tumblr today and I thought why not to do it. And when I was reading it I thought why not to share it with you when I'm gonna do it anyway. Maybe you'll find it interesting to know something about me. I mean something more than "I'm from Bohemia, I'm a girl, I'm way too sentimental and I often talk nonsence."
¨
So here it is!
Few questions about random stuff to answer.
And maybe not so random,
and maybe not so few.
We'll se.
________________________________

1   What is the real reason you are confused right now?
  • Well I don't know, should I be confused right now? I guess I'm confused by this question.

2   Do you ever get “good morning” texts from anyone?

  • I used to.

3   If your significant other smoked pot, would you care?

  • No, I don't really mind it. C:

4   Do you find it easy to trust others?

  • I'm not sure how to answer this. Unfortunately, I really do trust people too easily. But I wish I didn't trust anyone, it's always easier to depend only on yourself.

5   What were you doing at 11PM last night?

  • You wouldn't believe... I was sleeping. 

6   You’re drunk and lost walking down the road; who is with you?

  • I guess some of my closest friends - Tess or Tery. Who else should I be drunk with?

7   What would you do if you found out you had been cheated on?

  • I'd be reeeealy upset and I'd probably do something regrettable and stupid. Then I'd be sad and quiet for a long long time and after all this I'd get over it. But I would never forget it.
