I’m usually woken up by my two cat’s way before the alarm clock goes off, so my morning is usually cleaning out their trays, feeding them and then getting myself ready. I have no appetite when I wake up so tend to have a small bowl of cereal when I get into the office – which has to be with coconut milk. Busy – sometimes crazy busy!
