For this installment of How We Do, a lovely series created by Hanna and Trina, we’re talking about how we spend our Sunday mornings.
On Sundays I love to sleep in, although I usually wake up naturally between 8 and 9am. I’ll get up and make a cup of tea (I’m really into peppermint tea at the moment), and then get right back into bed. The weekend is always for catching up on my TV shows, so I’ll do that for an hour or two until I’m fully awake. Some Sundays, instead of reaching for my computer, I’ll reach for my current book and read for a few hours. It just depends on what I’m in the mood for.
Once I’ve roused myself out of bed, I’ll jump in the shower and wash my hair, so I can let it air dry throughout the day. Sunday is typically pancake day, so I’ll whip up a small batch of pancakes for breakfast. After I’ve showered and eaten, I can really get my day started.
Sunday is also blogging day, so I’ll work on editing pictures and writing posts for the week. This is typically when I sit down and plan out my posts for the week, or at least for the first half of the week. And that’s how I spend my Sunday mornings!
Tell me: What do you usually do on Sunday mornings?
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?

I love this idea! Will the series be continuing with various topics? Let me know :) I LOVE the days where I can sleep until I wake up naturally without an alarm!

Yes it will- Latrina (blog.oftreesandhues.com) and Hanna post a new topic every month, so you can definitely join in if you’re interested! Sleeping in with no alarm is the best!
So glad you enjoyed the series, Jenmarie! I hope you join us next month. :)
love it! i love my cup of coffee and watching Sunday Morning show on CBS. always calms me.
Thanks Elle! I’ve never watched the CBS Sunday morning show- I’ll have to check it out!
I love that your Sundays are pancake day! Mine use to be, but definitely considering bringing it back. :)
So happy that you joined Hanna and I, I absolutely loved reading all about your Sunday morning! Sounds relaxing and a lot like my own. :)
I’ll add your blog post to mine this afternoon! xoxo
Thank you Latrina! Everyone loves this series (myself included, of course! :)
I love lazy Sunday mornings and usually sleep in and laze in bed and read for abit before my husband and I try to decide what to have for brunch.
Rowena @ rolala loves
That sounds nice! Glad I’m not the only one who enjoys a lazy Sunday morning :)
I’ve been loving how this series is being spread around! I absolutely wish I could sleep in more often on Sundays. I’m definitely a brunch type of girl. :)
Yes, weekend brunches are the best! :)
fun series! i wake up, say hello to the boys who are all already up! then i make coffee and we all eat breakfast :)
Family time on Sunday mornings sounds so nice! :)
10-12pm Where am I?
12-2pm I’m NEVER drinking again.
2pm Wait, it’s Sunday?
2-4pm Focus on getting better so that I can study.
4-5pm But Áñya is SOOO cute!
5-7pm First meal that’s stayed down all day! -feeling accomplished
7-12am Reading four chapters about neuron development via binge watching season three of Scandal, i.e. no reading actually happened.
Hahaha, Sunday mornings in college, I remember those!
Oh this sounds lovely. I usually sleep in, then make a cooked breakfast with the husband (with our ‘weekend morning’ music on), and then either do not a whole lot for the rest of the day, or go out and do something fun. And hopefully no work! :) x
Agreed Amy- no work on Sundays if it can be avoided! :) What type of ‘weekend morning’ music do you listen to?
I love that sunday is pancake day. What is your favorite kind? For me its usually a tossup between apple and chocolate chip. Depends on my mood.
Sunday is usually the day I get all my blog posts together for the week as well.
I love just a classic pancake covered in syrup (#sweettooth)! Mmm, apple pancakes sound yummy- do you have a go-to recipe?
Sundays are usually pancake day for me too! Mine usually a classic pancake with a big helping a cinnamon sugar butter and covered in a good quality maple syrup. Also on Sundays I usually catch up on laundry, blog, and do some work for the upcoming week.

Love that Sundays are pancake days for you too! :)
