MY PASSION
Preparing Turkish Breakfast and Tea Every Morning
When I was a kid, my mom always prepared breakfast for my siblings and me, even when she had to leave early for school. Thanks to her, having a good healthy breakfast became an irreplaceable part of my daily routine. Good breakfast came with a cup of Turkish tea, and over time, I became a tea addict or tearyaki, which I coined the term. I even remember sipping my nice hot cup of tea at the hospital while waiting for my mom to give birth to my little sister. Anyways, back to the topic. I love preparing a nice breakfast for myself and preparing to others even more. It is my passion. It is my ritual. It is what motivates me to wake up every single morning.
My morning routine:
- Boil water to brew tea
- Prepare the breakfast plate
- Enjoy the hot tea and breakfast before going about your day
