Do you enjoy having your first cup of coffee in bed, or do you prefer to have it in another location?
To answer this week's prompt, I would say that I don't always take my first cup of coffee in bed. The time I do take my coffee daily varies as well as the location.
Whenever I wake up during workdays, I do make sure I prepare to go to work on time as I don't like going late. In cases like this, after preparing breakfast, if I still have some time to spare, I would eat my breakfast and wash it down with a cup of coffee which is sometimes my first cup for the day. But, if I am running late, I would pack my food in my thermoflask and also my coffee to-go.
On weekends when I know I am not going out, first I don't even wake up early and when I finally manage to drag myself up, I would prepare myself a hot cup of coffee and go back to bed or sometimes I go to the sitting room.
If it happens to be rainy season, I am definitely going back to bed with my cup of coffee and a book to read or coffee and my phone to watch movies, play games, read or browse through the internet.
There are some advantages to me taking my coffee in bed. I noticed that whenever I take my coffee in bed, it helps me relax more. Though one of the not-so-good thing about it is that it will help me stay in bed longer than usual and of course since it's weekend, I might end up sleeping off again till I am fully ready to get up from be which may end up being till midday or whenever my stomach pleads to be fed.
But taking coffee in the sitting room or the kitchen doesn't have that same effect. I would already be up and after taking my first cup, I would proceed to rinsing it and immediately going about my daily activities. I sometimes use this method whenever I have a lot planned for the day but if I want to "lazy around", I take my coffee to bed.
Another thing I noticed whenever I am taking my coffee in bed is that I tend to drink more cups, unlike sometimes when I am in hurry to go out and I just take a little quantity.
I don't always take my coffee to go because it actually depends on where I am going to at the time.
If I am to choose where I enjoy my coffee more, I would prefer where it would make me relax more which is in bed during weekends.
