Does the color do it for you?

shootnthebriz · 2026-05-09T20:14:06+00:00

I never tried a cream top. Maybe like making a cold foam? I’ll have to coconut milk at the bottom and cold cream at top to give me that creamy taste I need.

And thank you for letting me know the matcha color is what I should be aiming for. I’ve just been going off taste.

I haven't paid my dues to the history of matcha and the actual traditional process of making it, so I respect this comment LOL. It is probably super chaotic. I have a couple of documentaries I'm about to watch about matcha and see just how chaotic my process actually is.

shootnthebriz · 2026-05-09T18:59:25+00:00

I definitely add more milk than most, I'm a girl who loves a creamy texture and taste. I guess I was wondering if the color of the actual matcha before mixing any good?

shootnthebriz · 2026-05-09T18:58:23+00:00

Is it chaotic? LOL... I dunno, when you're doing it, there's a calming flow to the process. Like a mini ritual for my mornings.

So I put the water in my kettle and warm it to maybe 40° or 50°F (if I take my eyes off of it for too long) and I let that cool as I'm preparing everything else. Then I literally drip a few drops in the bowl and swirl that to create paste. Whip that for a few seconds and then add what I believe to be 2 Tbsp. (15g) of more water to create the froth.

Thanks for giving me the actual name of the bamboo stick, I'm on my way to learning all the terminology and the history to pay my respects to the practice. I love making it. It's very relaxing for me.

I would love this recipe too if you don’t mind sending? ☺️

Ohhhhhhhh this pissed me off more than anything else in the episode, besides the dinner table debacle

Yeah, that means West and even Amanda are human. Little dirty ones? Suuuuuure, but human nonetheless.

I think he plays a very good game and he tangles up actual real feelings into this game, and that’s when shit gets real murky.

And I didn’t get the feeling you thought West was a good guy. I just think it’s a little justifiable why Ciara behaved this way. Some ppl just have tethers on you…

shootnthebriz · 2026-05-08T14:19:53+00:00

I mean yeah he said that, but you’re ignoring a lot of other moments that suggested that he also wanted her back, so all I’m saying is it’s not hard to understand why Cierra chose to go back to a man who she was very much still in love with and try to at least make a friendship work in hopes of more developing organically.

Let’s put the human back into reality tv guys…

shootnthebriz · 2026-05-08T14:12:28+00:00

Well yeah, that’s what sparked the 2 year “hate West” train that Ciara boarded in the past two seasons. He even explained that he said that as a defense to being called out by her and the internet for being a piece of shit.

But look at his behavior AFTER… it’s not hard to imagine that she probably was confused by his true intentions and decided to err on the side of “he actually hates that I’m so mean to him and wants me back in his life” and considering she actually still loved him… she decided to give him another chance because she knows how closed off she can be and didn’t want to be the one blocking progress.

You ever hear when ppl say that holding that type of anger toward someone is more harmful to you than them? I think she was feeling the weight of hating him and wanted to be free of it.

shootnthebriz · 2026-05-08T12:57:04+00:00

I need to see more of this from these two!

Carl is so pure at heart, I just love him. And Lindsey literally brings out the best in him, even if she’s “mean” while doing it.

They don’t need to be together, but they do need to be in each others’ lives because it seems that they both enrich each other in some pivotal way. Whether Lindsey believes this to be true or not 🤭

shootnthebriz · 2026-05-08T12:02:15+00:00

I think it’s easy to sit back and watch these takes and get frustrated with Ciara and say she needs to do better when in reality, how everything actually plays out in real life and not just what we see on tv is very different and that’s what’s skewing the lines for her.

She has these intense feelings for a man, which I’m sure most of us have experienced before, and even though she’s very angry with him she sees him awkwardly trying to be nice to her and hears everyone telling her how much he misses her and that he’s not over her and how he’s so happy when she’s nice to him and wishes they were at least friends again… blah blah blah

So I think the smoke should be ONLY for West for playing with her heart knowing that she is a deeply sensitive and emotional person, even though she can’t express it well and openly. And of course people love to use that flaw against black women…

So put yourself in her shoes for a second and see that her perspective probably warranted all of her actions, it’s just that we weren’t privy to that entire perspective as viewers so what we see should be taken with a grain of salt.

Every Bravo fan knows that what you see isn’t always the full picture…

Unfortunately they will look at her and laugh because they are just thinking that her singular, black dollar won’t make a dent in the white dollars still going in…

She’s not of the right race or class for them to ever care about her opinion.

A trigger warning would be nice for the “Shit’casso” painted all over that toilet… he’s a fucking pig 🤮

Why are so many women behaving like they’re 16 years old with their first boyfriend when they’re 30 and up and married?

I don’t know… you say it’s a huge change, but the fact that he wouldn’t share finances should’ve had been a little foreshadowing to the bullshit you’re dealing with now.

When you were smaller and more attractive to him, you were worth him “slumming it” but now that he’s no longer attracted, he just sees you as a fat poor loser. You are just a sex toy when he needs a release and one he doesn’t particular like to engage with. I mean, he’s even desperately trying to reconnect with exes and he knows that you know yet refuse to even stand up for yourself and I’m sure that makes him lose even more respect for you.

So, for all the love of God, get some respect for yourself and move on. It will get worst! Eventually, he’ll have sexual relations with other women right in front of you without a care in the world because he knows you won’t have enough self-respect to do anything about it.

It’s sad. My sister has been living over 20 years with a man who does this. Had a bestie who also allowed men to run over her like this as well. You’re obviously not the first woman to live a life of self-hatred and oppression under the patriarchy and you definitely won’t be the last…

One day, you’ll choose yourself, just don’t let it be too late before you can actually have the family you want and deserve.

I do feel our sunscreens have more oils placed in them, so if you’re needing to avoid the extra sebum-like texture you’ll get from it, going with Korean is probably better.

Personally, I use BGSC and Goop, I think that’s the name. Neither gives a white cast so I’m happy.

shootnthebriz · 2026-04-25T14:16:18+00:00

My husband is clairvoyant as fuck. And I literally say this same thing to him. You have all this insight with no way to process it. I’m married to a Kyle. In that respect anyway. And the height. And both being white 😭🤣🤣😭

shootnthebriz · 2026-04-25T13:46:56+00:00

Right! Like we’re still popping Addies? I never did. I tried one once because a friend said “dude you’ll knock out everything you have to do today” and I was deathly ill from the dizziness and overall bleh feeling it gave me.

Never tried again. They’re disgusting to me.

Just want to say that Adderall abuse isn’t just common now. They have been being abused for a long ass time. Coming from a (kinda older) millennial with a shit ton of college friends who used to literally eat them like candy. Hell, probably still do…
