What's the first drink against the "word of wisdom" you tried?

Mine was iced matcha tea with crushed strawberries at a boardwalk cafe.

I remember it so vividly too, I had to walk from my hotel a full mile to the board walk every day due to the vacation arrangements being complicated. By the second or third day I had enough of walking that far only to be too tired to talk to store clerks or my family, let alone swim for more than 5 minutes.

So I stopped in a Cafe and ordered some matcha with strawberries since I heard the caffeine amount was lower than coffee and my logic loosely was "how can the word of wisdom possibly cover a tea JS had never heard of before? also iced tea is clearly different than hot drinks"

it was bitter yet delicious and I knew life would be happier with this as a little treat in my life from time to time.

now I've been out for a few years, and the memory resurfaced since it's hot out and I found matcha icecream while grocery shopping.

I know some people possibly might have neutral or bad memories of trying a drink against the word of wisdom for the first time, but I'm curious what other people's experiences might be.

My first two projects/looking for beginner advice

I discovered this craft earlier this week and found myself kinda obsessed with it, which is super refreshing considering my creative/art block lately.

my first one is on the left and is 4 cards made of the yarn I use for making crochet plushies. the one on the right is 8 cards made of embroidery floss split in half and is supposed to just be stripes instead of a real pattern attempt.

I'm wondering what yarn thickness i should invest in, and how it'd be possible to build a small/simple loom right now.

embroidery floss isn't economical enough, and my acrylic yarn is too thick and feels gross in the finished product.

I definitely need a loom as I'm too fidgety for the belt method to keep me interested in this as a hobby for long, plus I keep messing up the tension with the belt method.

this is a pretty cool hobby though, I like how it's one that's been passed down for so long as a skill through written and oral traditions.

I don't know if the pair I got is too small or not?

found a pair of docs in a size 6 for 30 dollars, so I measured my feet while referencing the website size guide.

I usually wear a size 8 or 9 and just lace them tightly or wear an insole even though I'm more of a 7.5 since it's impossible to find nice shoes that fit me.

my feet seemed to be a bit smaller that the size 6 shoes for docs, and I know they're hard to break in.

I might have gotten slightly too small a pair though? they fit although they feel tight, although not overly tight in the toes

am I just gaslighting myself that they might not fit and I really just need to break them in?

if anyone more experinced knows how to figure this out let me know.
