[0:36]a podcast to practice slow comprehensible English Today I want to talk about my day today was a very busy day I did what I normally do which is to start my day with a banana smoothie I have talked about banana smoothies in my videos in the past before so I want to show you the full creation of my banana smoothies first I use the strainer and I strain my kefir kefir is a fungi that turns milk into kefir it's sour and a little bit sweet I love kefir I strain out all the milk I put into my kefir yesterday and I just strain it directly into the blender I add one banana and then I make my way to the freezer and I put in frozen berries a variety of berries strawberries blueberries, raspberries next I add some flaxseed a good source of fiber and a little splash of water so that it's not too thick I blend it and I serve it into my favorite mug it's my favorite color of green and it's actually not mine it's my dad's but he never uses it so I do after breakfast, my parents asked me, if I wanted to go with them to the tianguis the tianguis is like an outdoor supermarket where they sell everything and anything from fruits to seafood to clothing like hats and shirts so I went with them and we picked out some fresh fruits and vegetables we got some fresh pork rinds to eat with guacamole and we picked up some corn to have for dinner later in the week I love going to the market it's so nice walking around with my parents and we had some fresh food for lunch and it's nice getting fresh ingredients for lunch after the market, we decided we should visit my grandma's house since I didn't have any work to do at the moment I agreed and we walked to my grandma's house my grandma's house is so cute it brings back childhood memories every time I go my grandma's house is actually attached to a little store where she sells food just like in a convenience store but her own not Oxxo or a 7/11, a local little store it's called abarrotes luz my grandma's name is "Luz" so it's like saying "groceries luz" my sister and I always go to her store to pick out some chips or some sweets I am more of a sweets fan so I always get some sweet cinnamon rolls or a candy like a Snickers bar my sister loves spicy chips so she usually gets Takis or Cheetos but my grandma is so sweet she always gives us all the sweets and candies she can it's all super nostalgic to me the green tiles on her kitchen floor her old clock that doesn't even work anymore her garden filled with pots of plants plants like flowers, succulents and trees her dog has the sweetest little face she has her old CD player always playing music from the 60s or 70s I love my grandma's music what's the most nostalgic place from your childhood? after lunch with my grandma, we walked the dogs around the neighborhood. these are my parents' dogs Wera and Pablo they are so energetic and crazy but they are cuties Wera always pees when she gets excited she can't hold it in she gets too excited Do you have any pets? what are their names? and why? after walking the dogs... I worked on my computer for a little while until my sister invited me to eat sushi with her I had been craving sushi for the longest time so of course I accepted the invitation it was a really nice meal... and we even got fortune cookies mine said: "you have lots of opportunities at your reach" "take advantage of them" but that really resonates with me I want to take advantage of all the opportunities the universe gives me and stay motivated to be the best version of myself What motivates you to be the best you possible? today was actually Independence Day in Mexico so we had plans to eat dinner at my grandma's house to celebrate my grandma has a new small dog my grandma cooked chalupas chalupas are fried tortillas with potatoes, lettuce, and chicken, and green or red salsa on top my grandma is the best cook even if you don't like Mexican food I'm sure you would like my grandma's food so my aunt and my grandma worked together and cooked us chalupas and we had a delicious Independence Day if you enjoyed a day in my life! leave a like so I can focus on making more videos like these and don't forget to let me know in the comments what's the most nostalgic place from your childhood?? and what motivates you to be your best self?
