Time for Tea

I’ve recently stopped drinking coffee. It’s an experiment to see if that is what has been making my stomach unhappy. But this is no happy experiment. This summer I replaced my afternoon cup with green tea. I had been eating chocolate every day with my coffee and my pants were getting snug, so it wasContinue reading “Time for Tea”

Not my Mug

Sometimes I steal my husband’s favourite mug. I drink my coffee out of his Harley-Davidson cup just because I like it. It’s the perfect size for my morning coffee, and has a nice, smooth handle.

I savour it so long, I usually have to reheat it in the microwave several times before it’sContinue reading “Mmmm… Coffee”

Morning

I set my alarm for 6:00 am, every day. Even in the summer. I do this for a few reasons: To get the most out of my day, to write, and because I love mornings. I especially love quiet mornings, before the kids are up and there are things to do, places to go. IfContinue reading “Morning”
