The Morning Rush and Carluccio's


Nothing like a coffee to ease the morning rush..

Carluccio's is a cafe, one of 45 around London.
This is a local spot for me...walk, bike or car,
I am there every chance I get.

       
A few of my favourites for breakfast:
CAFFÈ LATTE
UOVA E PANCETTA 
   Free range fried eggs with grilled pancetta on toasted bread.

   MUSSLI CON YOGHURT  
Muesli with natural yoghurt, served with jugs of honey  
and woodland berry compote.

FRUTTA DI STAGIONE 
Fresh fruit salad with natural yoghurt.

It is hard not to leave without a bag of their
Chicchi Di CaffÈ
Chocolate Coated Coffee Beans
A special treat for an espresso moment later in the day :)


If I have time up my sleeve, I like to pop into the 

local library around the corner.


There is always an interesting sight out front.
This little fellow warmed my heart the other day
as did this enormous bicycle basket.
I have serious basket envy over this one.

I love purchasing books from the library 
as much as I do borrowing them. 
Great bargains always await me.
Today I picked up Fiesta: The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway
and Portrait of a Lady by Henry James for a grand total
of  1.40 pounds. Bargain!


You are always sure to find a book on English Gardens and Fairies too.

Do you like to start the day with a coffee?
How do you take yours?
