Monday Wake-Up Call

Happy Monday!  I've said it before and I'll say it again.  Mondays are TOUGH for me!!!  However, I'm telling myself that one way to get through this week is to remember that we are getting closer to the Memorial Day Weekend.  Yup - already.  Isn't it amazing how time flies?!


I don't know about you, but the first thing I do when I wake up is drink coffee.  Luckily, my husband gets the coffee maker going and takes our puppies out for a quick walk.  By the time he gets back in, the coffee is done and he brings in a big mug of coffee (with just the right amount of goat milk and brown sugar) into the bedroom for me. Yup - my husband learned very early on in our relationship that I cannot function without coffee (and I'm extremely cranky in the morning w/o coffee).  And he even perfected the ratio of milk and sugar to my taste.  I don't know when and how he established this little nice morning routine for us, but I've come to depend on it very heavily.  Like on a daily basis! (A little "I love you" shout out to the husband!)


How about you?  What's your choice of beverage in the morning?   Coffee?  Tea?  Whiskey?

My little coffee set-up (I've also got a Nespresso machine - good stuff!!).

Blooming Strawberry Jasmine Tea - my favorite
