Coffee routines

When we talk about a ritual, we talk about something that is repeated, it can involve words, actions, objects. We can have these rituals even without realizing that we do or have a ritual.

For example, I have a ritual when I remove my makeup, I do a sequence of actions to remove it and with certain products which I consider necessary and I enjoy it to the maximum, but also those of us who drink coffee have it or so I think, in my case I have two rituals, one when I am at home and the other when I go to work.

At home my husband prepares coffee before anything else, so if I am going to stay at home I drink coffee before breakfast, he, my husband, these days takes my coffee to bed as I have mentioned so many other times in previous publications, it is something so tender for me, I can't stop saying it every time I have the opportunity, he even calls my attention if he sees that I am letting the coffee cool.

But it's very likely that I drink another amount of coffee when we have breakfast, it's not always, but it can happen because we tend to chat while having breakfast and, it's definite that conversations flow better when drinking coffee.

Now, if I have to go to work I take my cup of coffee in a thermos that I acquired exclusively for it, with the purpose of getting it as hot as possible to my office, there in the office the ritual is the following, look for my cup and the teaspoon, with which I added the sugar, pour my coffee in the cup, heat my breakfast and sometimes a little bit of my coffee depending on how fast it was stored in the thermos and go to my desk.

So I go to my desk, put everything on the individual I have there to eat and proceed to have breakfast, most likely I eat first and then I drink my coffee, although occasionally I take a few sips while I eat, but usually I leave it for the end and enjoy it little by little while I see the follies of my coworkers or the happenings of the office and I will order my desk to start working.

Of all this, what I do ask and appreciate is not to be rushed to drink coffee, I hate that and if by chance I have to go somewhere, I will simply leave the coffee because to drink coffee under pressure is not to enjoy it and coffee should be enjoyed.

In short, my coffee drinking ritual depends on the activities of my day, so I bid farewell to my participation in STB #78.
