sketching and sipping strawberry banana smoothies,

a blank canvas,

going out for lunch,

giant coffees at breakfast (i rarely have coffee these days, but when i do, i so enjoy it),

i've been sipping warm water with lemon and cayenne pepper or yerba mate in the mornings instead of coffee…but sometimes, especially on a rainy day, a giant mug of coffee is the best thing 🙂

enjoy!

Juliette, I love everything you listed, but I'm really impressed about your first art journal. I feel I should be doing one, but haven't started yet.
