Early Riser or Morning Relaxation? I prefer to wake up early rather than staying in bed. While I may not be the best at getting a good night’s sleep, I excel at taking some leisurely moments to lie down and enjoy the calmness.
First Activity of the Day? Despite not being a coffee enthusiast before, I developed a taste for it when I was in Australia. Nowadays, I either hop back into bed with a cup of coffee or I attend to my plants and give them some water.
Brunch on Sundays? Breakfast at its traditional morning time isn’t really my thing anymore. I used to force myself to eat it, but then I realized that it was a habit from childhood that I now question.
How do I Unwind? A significant portion of my day is spent puttering around. I have a small garden and prefer to avoid direct sunlight, so I set up a cozy hammock in the shade where I can relax and indulge in reading while sipping a refreshing Campari soda. Currently, I’m engrossed in Jonathan Rosen’s book, The Best Minds, although I haven’t reached the most intense parts yet.
Sunday Socializing Over Lunch? I often gather with friends to enjoy a midday meal that’s not quite breakfast and not quite supper. Luckily, my friends are not intimidated by cooking for me, and I’ve had the pleasure of their company for quite some time. On the occasions when I prepare the meal, I try to resist the temptation of roast chicken, but I frequently succumb to it. I also prepare a delightful potato salad with gherkins, capers, oil, and vinegar, inspired by my mother and grandmother. Interestingly, many people claim to avoid carbs, yet they can’t resist indulging in this salad.
Refreshing Sunday Drinks? I like to prepare a jug of something delightful such as Prosecco, San Pellegrino Limonata, tequila, or elderflower. Another popular choice is a modified version of a margarita.
Background Sounds on Sundays? When I’m puttering around, silence is what I cherish. It’s a rare commodity nowadays. However, when I’m washing dishes, I turn on my “dance time” playlist full of disco and Motown classics. At that moment, I’m perfectly content with the distraction of music.
Sunday Evening Relaxation? I prefer to unwind on the sofa with a bowl of crisps and a drink. While I’m not much of a drinker, I find pleasure in indulging as an eater. Usually, I’ll have one beverage and then switch to soda. I have yet to find a replacement for my favorite show, Succession. As someone who isn’t a dedicated TV viewer, I only watch television when others are present and silence is not an option. This way, we can enjoy it together and have lively conversations.
Winding Down on Sunday Night? I prefer standing, walking, or lying down over sitting for extended periods. Therefore, I’ll often lie in bed and engage in activities that experts typically discourage, such as using my phone. Consider it a naughty indulgence on my part.
