My relationship with coffee is balanced, I love it, I like it, but I can be without it, it is just the loves I prefer and coffee even with its seductive aroma and its so demanded effects is not the exception for me.
Sometimes, I wake up in the morning and quickly think of a cup of very hot, intense and slightly sweet coffee. Not too much, a small cup is enough. Sometimes I dread it a little, I don't deny it. There was a time in my life when I increased my coffee intake considerably and had many episodes of strong palpitations....
Coffee's fault? Maybe, I'm still not sure.
Now I drink it in moderation and it's fine, I don't crave it and I don't need it every morning. I don't have a fixed routine, my routines can change in a few days, most of the time I decide how my day will be, except for Sundays when I work at my friends' bakery.
Since I do that job, it is almost fixed a cup of coffee well loaded and very hot before leaving to feel that I finish waking up and that I am full of energy to face the day
After taking a lukewarm shower, I quickly heat up some water, which heats up very quickly because my kitchen is very fast and I only prepare a small amount. I am in a hurry most of the time because it is hard for me to get up early and while the coffee is sneakin in a cloth strainer, I get dressed. Half dressed, I go and get the coffee, sweeten it a little and drink it almost desperately, maybe in 3 or 4 sips, very hot, black coffee must be very hot for me, otherwise I think it is a waste.
The rest of the days I prepare my breakfast more calmly, although sometimes I just eat my first meal at noon, other times I wake up thinking about food and go immediately to that.
I love having coffee with milk in the mornings with an empanada, if I could do it every day without gaining a gram I think it would definitely be a vice by now, but I do it infrequently because otherwise in a short time my pants no longer go up to my waist but stay halfway, I just like it with full milk and a little sweet. I know there are options, but I haven't gotten the hang of them taste, at least not so that it's very frequent.
So, my mornings are all different, sometimes I drink hot water with lemon, sometimes just water, sometimes coffee, especially on cold or rainy days, a black coffee or a mocaccino is ideal for those moments.
I like the relationship I have with coffee, I love it but it is not indispensable for every day of my life, even so I have many moments with it that I would gladly relive again and again.
