Again, my favorite part about traveling is indulging in the local cuisine! This last weekend I just enjoyed this incredible cup of clam chowder and I had to share! Clam chowder has been a Boston favorite for centuries! With its creamy base, tender clams, and hearty potatoes, this soup has warmed the hearts of locals and visitors alike. A true New England classic, Boston's clam chowder is a cherished tradition that continues to delight taste buds in seafood shacks across the city.

Soooo i have a confession to make. My favorite part about summertime is going to festivals and ordering Chicken on a Stick.
Chicken on a stick? Oh, cluck yes! It's the ultimate festival treat that'll have you doing the chicken dance with glee. Skewered, seasoned, and sizzled to perfection, these tasty morsels are a peck above the rest. Whether grilled or fried, they're finger-lickin' good and perfect for munchin' on the go. So, flock to the nearest food stall, grab a stick, and let the flavor ruffle your feathers. It's a clucking good time!

Hereās a double-sized Turkish coffee I enjoyed in AlaƧatı, Turkey (thatās a whole lotta caffeine!).
Turkish coffee is always served with a glass of water and a small treat, like Turkish delight, chocolate, or a cookie. The water is to wash down some of the coffee grounds that you may sip (normal and a part of the experience!), and the treat is there to offset the strong brew. Plus we all deserve a lil treat šš«¶š» Swipe to see the narrow walkways full of coffee shops and restaurants in AlaƧatı!

So, you wanna know why guzzling caffeine late at night can sabotage your beauty sleep? Well, caffeine is a stimulant that can mess with your body's sleep-wake cycle. This can make it harder for you to fall asleep, cause you to wake up frequently during the night, and leave you feeling groggy in the morning. So, if you want to catch some quality Z's, it's best to lay off the caffeine after lunchtime. Sweet dreams!

It has a higher molasses content than your standard cane sugar, giving it a toastier flavor! A perfect pair with coffee. Do you drink your coffee with or without sugar? Let me know in the comments!
