International and National Coffee Day.

Ahhhhh…..coffee. I don’t know how I would get through my day without it.

Since the early 6th century, when Ethiopian goat farmers noticed that their goats got really excited when grazing around their coffee plants, we have known of the glories of brewed caffeinated beverages. It was nearly a century later that “brewed coffee” as we know it came to be. Once folks started drinking it, they realized that it is really hard to stop.

Today, over 400-billion cups of coffee are consumed each year. I know that I’m doing my part!
