My Kitchen in the Morning

Every morning, the kitchen calls me first.

It smells good and feels warm.

I wake up early and go to the kitchen.

I turn on the kettle for hot water.

I make toast with the toaster.

I put bread in the toaster and wait.

I [fry] two eggs in a pan.

Two sunny-side-up eggs sizzling in a black frying pan, with cheerful sound-wave lines coming off the pan, steam and a big smile on the yolks.

The eggs make a loud, happy sound.

I cut some fruit with a knife.

I put the fruit in a bowl.

I pour hot water into my cup.

A cartoon person holding a big warm mug of tea with both hands, eyes closed in happiness, morning sunlight streaming through a kitchen window.

I drink hot tea.

I eat my toast.

My kitchen is small but very nice.

Every morning is a good morning there.
