My Vacation Coffee Morning Routine

 I wake up around 6:30am and start boiling water for a french press.  I grind the beans to slightly coarse and scoop the exact amount needed into the press.  After the water is done boiling I let it rest 1 minute before slow pouring it over the grounds.  I give it a quick stir and let the mixture steep for 4 minutes.  One more stir.  A firm press.  Bam. Perfect vacation coffee.  I then sit at the kitchen counter and enjoy a book for a good hour before the rest of the house wakes.

What is your morning routine?  Could it be slowed down?   I love hearing about other people's daily habits,  and you may discover a new idea of your own.
