every day is different, but there is one constant: my morning tea.
even if it requires waking before dawn, I create the time.
I fill my red tea kettle and place it on the stove.
I place a bag of black tea in the little orange teapot my mom gave me.
the milk joins my mug on the counter.
hot water is poured into the orange teapot and I wait.
pour the tea into my mug. add the milk.
drink while sitting, usually with a cat on my lap.
after all, mornings are special.
the daily ritual photo project begins today. check it out or join the flickr group here.
I'm a lurker but I love this idea! I'm gonna join the flickr group. (cranberryjuice82) Thanks!
