Weekday morning breakfasts

I once lived with a German gal, E., who taught me the charming term for what has since become my default breakfast - 

A strong cup/pot of coffee with milk
Cigarettes

E. called it a Hurenfruehstuck, I'll let those of you multilingual or net-savvy readers figure out what it means. . . 

But it provides one heck of an adrenaline kick to start the day with, as well as a very quick means to, ahem, cleanse/purify the system. So to speak.
