Brunch, tea, and news

I’m not a morning person. Meaning, I wait to get out of bed only when it’s absolutely necessary. But, my mornings on weekends get more interesting. I don’t need to get ready in a rush to get to work. So, this is what my first hour of the day looks like on a weekend. They consisted basically of brunch, tea, and news.

Brunch, yummy!

Weekends are a lazy day, I like to wake up late, and eat late as well. We like to cook our own food. The favorites at our home are pancakes and eggs Benedict. We always have homemade pão de queijo in our freezer for a quick choice as well.

A cup of tea please (no coffee)

Nobody is perfect, right? I know, I know, coffee is delicious and an absolute necessity for many people. Well, not for me. To be fair, I drink it occasionally. For example, I love an espresso after lunch. But in the morning I much more prefer drinking a strong cup of tea. Earl grey is one of my favorites. Chai French vanilla latte is another one that adore! To vary things a little, I also drink English breakfast, green tea or the Brazilian matte.

Now let me read the news

I subscribed to newspapers and magazines for several years. I received them everyday very early in the morning. Now I read them in digital format, and I really don’t mind. In some respects, I even prefer. I love reading them with my cup of tea. It is always important to be well informed. But much more now.

These are the rituals for my first hour, brunch, tea, and news. What are yours? I’d love to hear about them!
