I Do Not Believe In Ghosts Or Spirits

Do you believe in ghosts or spirits? Why?

No, I do not believe in ghosts or goblins or any spirits – unless it’s rum, vodka, randy and others of their ilk. Does that mean that I do not get scared? Hell no. There are chances that I do and will get scared of things in the dark.

The power of imagination is so great that it can show you things that are not there. Charged by what you have seen in movies & tv shows and online. So you have these ideas of what the vampires are supposed to look like or zombies look like and other creatures of the night. So you look out into the night and the darkness and you imagine a zombie/vampire/ghost/creature.

Why I don’t believe in any of these creatures is because there is no proper evidence to do so. Nothing substantial enough to prove that they exist. Without proof it’s not wise to believe in anything, including ghosts and zombies or any spirits.

Latte VS Espresso VS Macchiato

Hereā€™s a breakdown of the differences between a latte, cappuccino, and macchiato, three popular espresso-based coffee drinks:

1. Latte

  • Ingredients: Espresso, steamed milk, light foam.
  • Milk to Espresso Ratio: A latte typically has a lot more steamed milk than espresso, with a thin layer of foam on top.
  • Texture: Creamy and smooth due to the large amount of steamed milk.
  • Flavor: Milder coffee flavor, dominated by the creaminess of the milk.
  • Typical Serving: Often served in larger cups (8 to 16 oz).

2. Cappuccino

  • Ingredients: Espresso, equal parts steamed milk, and foam.
  • Milk to Espresso Ratio: Cappuccino has a balanced ratio between espresso, steamed milk, and foam (about 1:1:1).
  • Texture: Rich and frothy, with a thicker layer of foam.
  • Flavor: Stronger coffee flavor compared to a latte, as the milk doesnā€™t dilute the espresso as much.
  • Typical Serving: Usually served in smaller cups (6 to 8 oz).

3. Macchiato

  • Ingredients: Espresso “stained” or ā€œmarkedā€ with a small amount of milk.
  • Milk to Espresso Ratio: Very little milk compared to the espresso. It’s essentially an espresso with a dash of milk or foam.
  • Texture: The texture is primarily that of espresso with just a hint of creaminess from the milk.
  • Flavor: Strongest coffee flavor of the three since it contains the least milk.
  • Typical Serving: Served in a small espresso cup.

In short:

  • Latte: More milk, mild coffee flavor.
  • Cappuccino: Equal milk and foam, more balanced.
  • Macchiato: Mostly espresso, with just a touch of milk.

Do you have a favorite out of these three?
