B Natural answer

On a typical morning, my kitchen is bright and calm, with sunlight near the window. putting the kettle on and opening the curtains. Then I check the fridge, because I like to see what I can make for breakfast. some fruit, bread, and yogurt, so I don't need to think too much. The counter is usually clear except for my mug and a cutting board. slowly while I make tea and get ready for the day.
