Unfortunately, arguably, iced coffee is becoming a running theme on this blog.

I mean, I'm now drinking iced coffee in the morning. And before you think it's a very expensive habit, I'm actually making it myself. I used to get a box of UCC iced coffee sachets, but now I'm just using instant coffee - Great Taste works better than Nescafé on this front - and experimenting with combinations of milk and sugar. So, a bit like what the kopitiams or cha chaan tengs do, then. It's also why I have a slightly more nuanced that expected understanding of the differences between condensed milk and condensed creamer, which I have passed down to my mother, in part because I got four cans of them as giveaways after a work event.

Anyway, yeah, iced coffee. I guess I'm beginning to be immune to the effects of caffeine. Or, I'm needing caffeine more often than I acknowledge. I also got cans of pineapple juice as giveaways from that work event. Good thing, I would say, because pineapple juice is good for those with high blood pressure like me. But try going through 24 cans of unsweetened pineapple juice in as short a time as possible - they're giveaways because they're expiring soon - and you'll soon realize that it gets tiring.
