Slow mornings rarely look the same.
Morning Coffee
Most of them begin with a simple cup of black coffee. If the weather is kind, I take it outside before opening my computer or checking my phone.
Sometimes I walk through the garden. Sometimes I wander into the meadow looking for Koblih. Other mornings I simply sit on the terrace and watch the trees wake up.
A Walk Before the Day Begins
On quieter days I bring a book instead.
I love black Brazilian coffee, especially the one our friends send us from Brazil, where people they know grow it on a small plantation. Somehow it always tastes a little different when you know where it came from.
None of these mornings are extraordinary.
That’s exactly why I enjoy them.
Some Mornings Need a Book
Slow mornings don’t make the day perfect.
They simply give it a quieter beginning.
