Morning Ritual

I am definitely not a morning worker. I find that I can't really do any creative work before 10am so when I'm up nice and early (meaning I haven't been up painting til the wee hours the night before) I simply allow myself the pleasure of a cup of tea and a few chapters of my latest book. In this case it's Tender Morsels by Margo Lanagan. I'm obsessed with fairy tales and eagerly devour any re-imagining of these classic stories.
