My morning routine is the same weekday or weekend. Wake up, feed the kitties, then breakfast at my coffee table in the living room. When you live alone you can be a little unorthodox with where you eat, what time you eat and what you eat.
Yesterday's breakfast was lemon pound cake and a cup of black coffee. Every morning is different depending on plans for the day.
This is my latest obsession, the Starbucks Verismo. Bright, shiny and cinnamon in color. My sister calls it my new toy. I love having so many choices for coffee in the morning. It's fun to make lattes at home.
And I bought some syrups and mocha powder so I can get creative with my homebrewing.
Oh, another part of my morning routine is to take a photo of my coffee and post it on Instagram and Facebook. It has become my signature.
Of course, Percy photobombed this shot. He's such an attention hogger.
Different mugs and roasts of coffee are photographed and sent to my friends list. This mug has a lid that doubles as a coaster. It was a gift from my friend Jan, a former coworker.
And this extra large cup was a purchase at an after Christmas sale at Pottery Barn. It doubles as a soup bowl in wintertime.
Sometimes I look through magazines during breakfast or I watch the morning shows. This cool cup is from Pier One. And the scratches are courtesy of the kitties. They have done quite a number on the table. Luckily, it had a rustic, distressed look to begin with.
Flowers from the farmers market pretty up the table. The cup is another after Christmas purchase. This time from Starbucks. I do love my after Christmas shopping.
This morning's latte was made with Guatemalan Espresso. Delish!
Today's shot was a little more involved. Kashi blueberry cereal, milk in a cat pitcher and my favorite birdie mug. It is obvious I like lidded mugs.
Oscar wanted to get in on the black and white theme I had going. Do you like the bowl? It's from French Garden House. The birdie mug is from QVC.
Earlier in the week Molly was unsuccessful in getting a sip of coffee but today she took the aggressive approach. She dove head first into the milk pitcher.
Percy also wanted at the milk but he settled for posing behind it. After all, the kitty on the pitcher is the spitting image of him.
If you want to be sure to see my coffee images each morning, you can follow me on Instagram or friend me on Facebook.
