Catch-up

A lot has happened since I last blogged, but my commitment to boba has remained unwavering. A couple highlights of my nearly two-month-long absence:



1. Blogspot is so 2000 and late. How do I make Bobalicious Twitter-compatible? I don't think I can get it all down in 140 characters...

2. Cafe Spot in Alhambra reminded me how delightful coconut milk boba really is. I used to get this all the time in Shanghai, at this place between campus and our dorm. Spot Cafe's version certainly doesn't disappoint, but is a thicker, frothier version than what I was expecting. Nonetheless, a solid effort. Another perk: it's served in a jar with a handle, which seems odd but is actually quite amusing. It makes you feel like a kid again, drinking out of receptacles that were never meant to be put in your mouth.
