Hello loves,
I am definitely a morning person. I love waking up and knowing that I have the whole day to make it into whatever I want it to be. I have the time to accomplish and do anything. If I want to spend the day working on the
blog, I can. If I want to binge watch Netflix, I can. If I want to go for a run and meet friends for dinner and drinks, I can!
However, not every day is a jump-out-of-bed-and-conquer-the-world kind of day. Some days I just want to curl up in bed and hit snooze 400 times. On days like this - it is important that I follow my morning ritual to help feel refreshed and have a
#boss kind of day!
Bows for Justine has teamed up with
Wayfair.com for their #CoffeeMyWay campaign. Wayfair is an online home store - they seriously have everything. You absolutely have to check out their selection of
coffee makers and
mugs! To see a post where I teamed up with them previously click here.
If you keep up with me on
Twitter or
Insta, it is no secret that I have a
mild complete obsession with coffee. It runs through my veins. Call me Rory Gilmore.
When I wake up I usually scroll through my Twitter and Instagram feeds to catch up on what happened in the
#TeamInternet world while I was catching my ZZZs. When I get the energy to roll out of bed, I wash my face. But first, I make sure to put on some
music. Music always gets me going in the morning.
Click here to see what I've been listening to lately. Next, I'll head downstairs and get started on my favorite part of the morning - making my coffee.
Sometimes I don't have time to have a leisurely morning - so I am all about convenience. I'll pop a K-Cup into my Keurig (lately I've been loving the
Macadamia Cookie flavored coffee by Gloria Jeans), grab my
favorite white mug (great for snapping an
Insta pic), and hit "brew."
While I'm waiting for my
hot mug of liquid energy to be ready, I'll usually make some breakfast. I'm a sucker for waffles or I'll opt for yogurt, fruit, and granola. Once I have my coffee and breakfast ready, I like to sit down in my living room recliner and catch up on the latest episode of
Good Mythical Morning.
Now I know what you're thinking, "Traci, you didn't tell us what creamer you put in your coffee! How much sugar do you add? Are you a skim milk or 2% kind of lady?" Well ladies and gentlemen, #CoffeeMyWay is black. I am a no nonsense girl when it comes to my morning cup. Yes, I like my lattes, mochas, and macchiatos - but my perfect morning is just me, my coffee, and the internet.
After I finish my breakfast and my coffee (maybe even a second cup), I shower, get dressed, put my make up on, and head out the door! This routine and time to myself is what really prepares me to take on the day.
What does #CoffeeMyWay look like for you? Are you a black coffee lover like I am - or do you put your own spin on it? How do you do mornings? Let me know in the comments below, and be sure to check out
Wayfair.com!
With love,
Traci J xx
