I get in to work a little after 9am. I take my kid to school on the Upper West Side, which entails three stops on the 1 train, and then transferring to the 2/3 at Times Square for two stops to 96th Street. After dropping him off around 8:45am, I get back on the 2/3 to Times Square. If all goes as planned, it's a pretty quick commute. People like to gripe about the New York City subway, but it's kind of remarkably efficient--at least at rush hour.

To drink, it's always a cold-brew iced redeye from Cafe Grumpy. Which costs $5. It's my daily indulgence.

I love breakfast food, just not in the morning. If that makes sense. I like to keep it relatively light: one slice of multigrain toast with chunky peanut butter. I love the way the peanut butter melts and gets all glossy and how you can smell it from down the hall.
