It's traumatic to hear someone we hold dearly has contracted cancer of some kind. This is exactly what happened within only months' time. Two much saddened news arrived. A very charming South Africa sales agent, though in his 70's but was going very strong, has just recently passed away from cancer. Time from doctor disclosure to his passing was within a month's time. And another energetic client has just recently been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.


I know it's bewildering. Isn't it? I mean one second you seem to be winning the game, second later you derail and your whole life is off the track. 


Life isn't fair. One works hard keep climbing that ladder trying to reach the top. Most never get there, loses direction and grows ever cynical. Some do get there, never got to enjoy their success, traded health for their success. And is that why I went and got myself a full checkup? Yes, most certainly, I don't know how I got to this point in my life knowing so little about my own health, but I need to know a whole lot more in order to face all the challenges I have ahead of me.


These terrible news made me mad but also, made it clear to me life isn't always what you expected. You really need to live everyday as if it is your last. I could only hope before my dying day comes I had already fulfilled a few of life's goals and those are enough for people to remember me by. 


I wholeheartedly do wish my client a quick recovery. Those who worked so hard to earn their place deserve to enjoy the sweetness of their success.


Ending on a good note, everyone go listen to Bryan McKnight's new album Genesis. It's not his best, could actually be his worst, some tracks felt hastily written, arranged and rushed out. "Forever" is the one aiming for the chart, but only R&B chart it will have mild success, pop chart it's his no more. "Die for your love," to me, is the best track on the album, one that echoes his past work, one with live instruments and that jazzy vibe. B Knight had switched it up in the past with iFUrReadyToLearn with verse like "let me show you how your pussy works" which shocked fans. And he is doing it again now with Genesis. Genesis is definitely far too commercial sounding compared to his 2016 album Better.  Talking about his commercial sound, then tracks on his album Ten would make your ear hit the G spot, the one you can romance with and also bounce your head to. Genesis sounded low budget and too monotonic. I certainly hope this isn't the path B Knight is going down. The man can do way better than this. And the man deserves a Grammy, can't believe he's never gotten a Grammy before! But if he continues with Genesis stuff, he will never get the Grammy.

討拍店偏地開花,各有各的一套生活理念

被大環境壓抑的都會人,有的甘之如飴,有的天天表面一套心裡則是忿忿不平

急需釋放負能量獲得正能量的人們,谷哥地圖上如茶米插旗插的密密麻麻應該不少

無畏紫外線跳上 U-bike O-bike 的各位,不妨踩踩單車消耗卡路里,出發! 

都會人也好,邊緣人也好,庄腳人也好,壓力都不小,大家找地方換個心情囉

果真,進入了秘密客的秘密空間頓然忘了外面的塵霄

不管是預謀要進來逃避,還是誤打誤撞進入了這

反正來了就把那些惱人的事先拋諸腦後

敵人、殺手追不到這裡 (希望囉)

拋光洗石子地板、中島廚房、幾幅畫

還剛好遇到琪姊才剛剛關注的IG美食客,有個性的女生,很用心停看聽,擷取畫面紀錄生活

茶米多少也在葡萄園裡張著耳朵偷瞄幾眼 trying to hear something through the grapevine~

這天天氣大好,是出遊的好日子

有陽光代表有繽紛彩虹七彩和室內物件玩耍,灑進一片光彩,挑逗你的視覺

老屋老屋誰是這天最幸運的人? 那就是米琪寶三人囉~~

這....是供桌麼? 上面供著不是神明啦,就是個討拍佈置

籃子裡兜售海報

最近發現有間 NORIMORI Shop & House 在宜蘭 (IG 真好用)

一對台北夫妻帶著小朋友過著田園生活,實在嚮往

住在新店的米琪就已經感覺沒朋友,要米琪這樣遠離塵囂難度頗高,除非存了一大筆,除非、除非,太多除非

安逸的生活大家都追求,只是,有多少人能夠自給自足還知足,離得開熟悉環境去尋找純樸?

米琪無法,但 NORIMORI 有提供住宿,至少可以去片刻感受人家的那份喜悅

嘉義聚集的好店家數量也是不容忽視啊,遍尋之下必有收穫,一找也是一籮筐

這天太陽非常之烈,琪姊沒上體適能課程,能走就多陪陪走走,但實在太曬,森活村幾乎每間都進去吹冷氣

烈陽下逛完檜意森活村之後,就順著停車處往前開拐兩個彎過兩個路口,到"往前"和"秘密客"一坐

★★★★★ I want it all! 通通都要! 
★★★★ pretty darn good 挺不錯喔 
★★★ sort of like it 過的去囉 
★★ only if I am hungry 除非很餓 
★ won't see you again... 沒有下次... 

總結: ★★★★☆ 4顆星

出發前,米琪對先去遠的台南還是近的嘉義各持己見

對茶米來說真的沒差,北下經台中不是國道一就是國道三,小小爭執一下後,就隨很執著的琪姊去選去

可能是經常洛杉磯三藩市兩地開,6-8小時車程,中間停一下吃頓飯或者暢貨中心逛逛很正常

怎樣開都是 roadtrip 的一部分囉,愛開車的茶米台北到台南這一丁點路還開不過癮勒

話說開車的是茶米,旁邊那位負責睡覺的意見還真不少 XD XD XD

台北經嘉義到台南還是台北到台南回台北經過嘉義,說要差可能就差在第三天從嘉義回台北玩累了開車近一些吧

嘉義和台南跟高雄、台中、台北比起來純樸多了

無論是店的數量或者規模都可以很明顯看出來

但質感上很多是不遑多讓的,秘密客就是

為了能夠多坐一間是一間,每間嚴格執行單點餐點一份+飲料

但這天中午那頓米琪各點了一份主餐,到秘密客時大腹便便的琪姊已經頂到肺

但要是中午沒各點一份主餐,還真想秘密客之後再繼續採點,終究不是天天跑嘉義囉

星期一不少店公休,難得往前和秘密客都有營業

雖然是星期一,兩間店都有7成座上客

走出秘密客,米琪就結束了孕期36/37周三天二夜

很開心在秘密客碰到有在關注的IG版主,原來拍的美美的,還是需要類單眼啊,See you soon, Chayi~
