If Im out, it's always a Cafe Latte with whole milk. I take my first sip and get a warm,fuzzy feeling! At home, it's 1 cup with coffee/milk. Then 1 cup green tea with soy milk and a square of dark chocolate. This is what I do every morning, after dealing with the animals needs, of course!

I'm not into rituals. Sure, I may more or less do the same thing every morning, but I actually like avoiding rituals, as they're too constraining. For me, it's fun to do things differently, like maybe brush my teeth before I shower, do household chores in a different order, eat a burger for breakfast, drive somewhere by a different route. I think it helps me be flexible.
But, whatever floats one's boat.

banana, oats, natural yoghurt, and milk. sometimes a few almonds.
coffee with milk. and again if i have time / aren't going straight to a place to get espresso.i eat while i'm checking emails etc.
i do vary things up sometimes... but it is nice to have a fairly planned morning ritual for me to reduce the cognitive load when i'm still waking up... i guess i vary the fruit sometimes... sultanas when i'm out of fresh...

I'm not a morning person. When I have to get up early for school, I get up 20 minutes before I have to leave. Just enough time to pee, brush my teeth, wash my face, get dressed and go. Sometimes, I'll hit the snooze button and have to rush through all this in ten minutes.
When I don't have to leave the house early, I sleep later, pour a cup of coffee (my husband is and early-bird and always makes a pot before I get up), then I read the newspapers on-line. Slowly get myself going and get out of the house, or I'll fall asleep again.

This morning thing keeps me going. I look forward to it. My hubby always says "can't wait to have that first sip of coffee in the morning" b4 we go to sleep...yes, not too romantic! I also go outside with my pets & make a point to look up into the heavens & take a deep breath

Yeah, you're right. That sounds better.
I'm afraid this is, in fact, my ritual.
I sometimes put on an audiobook in the car.
