  • This one’s more for the ones with ADHD but I keep a drink bottle and my ritalin next to my bed. When my alarm goes off I take the ritalin and chug the water (or something like juice if I really need the novelty). I don’t have much of a chance of falling back asleep and wasting my morning after that and it means I can actually spend the morning doing whatever I need to. We’re in autumn here in Aus so I keep a blanket by the bed that I throw over myself for the walk to the bathroom in the morning because I’m such a wimp about the cold. Also, not morning, but morning related: I leave my wallet and outfit I want to wear tomorrow in the bathroom over night so it’s there when I go to shower in the morning, and I’ll sometimes prepare breakfast the night before, which both make my mornings so much easier.
    I really struggle with functioning at the same times as most other people (DSPS) and I’m bad with time management so any little things like that help vastly.



  • I tried watching an episode of Schitt’s Creek when it started but it just didn’t click for me. My sister convinced me to just watch through the first season earlier this year and it got so much better with each season. So quotable, great comedic timing, character development, loved it.

    Going through a similar thing with Star Trek atm. Didn’t give it much attention until I passively watched a couple episodes that my boyfriend had on. Hooked on Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks now.








  • Very much considering going manual for the cost, but also I love the look of the manual espresso machines.
    I bought a Bellman that can steam because I didn’t like the foam I got with a nanofoamer. But to be honest it’s a lot of effort for steamed milk and the way it brews coffee is very hit or miss too. Bit of a learning curve.



  • I’m really keen to buy a proper machine in the next year or two. Thinking something like the Quick Mill Pippa.
    I was doing V60 for a while but Aeropress is my go-to now, even for an instant “coldbrew” in a pinch.
    Bodybrew Bod for cold brew. Love it, so easy to use, so easy to clean.
    Normally I use a Bialetti 1 cup, but lately I’ve been using a second-hand Irmel moka pot I found. Had to buy a new gasket for it.
