One Day Barista Training at the New Jersey Coffee School

Image
Such a special experience and a reminder that most of the time, it’s later than you think.  New Jersey Coffee School at the Monroe Center is closing in Hoboken after a 3-year run. They are now offering on-site training to their hospitality clientele, still a successful business, but no longer serving as a stand-alone training space. I enrolled in Day One of their 3-Day Barista training just before the closing was announced. I have probably done “the 10,000 hours” in food but my experience in beverages is limited.   Specifically, I am looking to purchase an at home espresso maker and taking the class provided me with an overview of the equipment. Coffee’s definitely got its fix on us.   I gained a better understanding of the history of coffee, farming, and the coffee production process, from bean to first sip. Matcha and Chai have reached a tipping point in the States with the class also exploring these relatively newer entries to the U.S. beverage scene.   We mad...

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4YPxAMzsFP3RdunupRaUDP?si=fe7f1cb10eeb4d41 Guess which modern track matches a Girl Group song.   10 Songs, 10 Matches.   Plus One Bonus Pairing.   Methodology: the influence pairings were Copilot approved.   Except for one of them, which is more based on tonality than lyrics.

A classic Motown plea meets a modern caffeine‑charged crush Both tracks radiate sugary pop energy, even if one is more “baby love” and the other is more “espresso buzz.” 3. Same title, different decade A summer heartbreak anthem gets reinvented by a modern superstar who shares its name. 4.

My Trader Joe’s Half Day Juice Cleanse

Image
Hacked more expensive juice offerings and came up with this two-meal juice cleanse plan. I am not a nutritionist nor a qualified medical professional though skipping two meals probably wouldn’t be a big concern. (I realize that some people are advised to eat frequently.)   There will be no mention of the word *detox* in this blog post. I devised this half day cleanse to give my digestive tract a break, to take a break from post-pandemic cooking, which is tough, and to get more mindful about food consumption. With a total of 520 calories, this plan may possibly meet the caloric requirements for two meals. For a half day, that’s two meals, breakfast and lunch, one juice every two hours. 1 Cold Pressed Juice Green, 90 calories 1 Cold Pressed Juice Red, 110 calories 1 Banana & Almond Butter Protein Smoothie, 320 calories – for the home stretch Add a Suja Cold-Pressed Lemon Ginger Cayenne depending on your ambition. Followed up with a lighter than usual dinner.  A...
