On workdays, which usually begin around 4:30am, I always have my fruit & yoghurt smoothies...have to get my antioxidants in & they give me a boost in the morning. On days off, I do like a cup or two of tea or coffee, just depends on what mood I'm in.<br />Thanks for sharing.<br /><br />Thanks also for the visit & comments over at my blog & at my girl Denise's. I appreciate the follow & am following you too in Linky.
