Quote by Alma Brooke

“When the eye meets what is not beautiful—when it stumbles upon the grotesque—it’s not just a fleeting inconvenience. It’s a violation. A crack in the order of things. A mockery of the universe’s relentless attempts to weave harmony into chaos.”

“So what does matcha taste like, if you've never had it? It's commonly described as tasting "green," which is true, albeit begging the question. Good matcha is naturally very sweet, a plant sweetness quite unlike bad matcha sweetened with sugar, which is common in shelf-table convenience store drinks and at coffee places. When you're drinking matcha, even high quality stuff, you can rub your tongue against the roof of your mouth and feel that it was whipped up from a powder. If you like the scent of newly mown grass, you would probably enjoy matcha. It's not much like brewed green tea at all.”
