September 29 Is National Coffee Day
“Hmmm! Just smell that freshly brewed coffee!” sighed Anna as she simply closed her eyes and inhaled the aroma. “I could stay like this all day!”
Clarence, the custodian, took a quick look at the front of the store and said, “I’ll need a bigger wastecan.”
Meanwhile, Johnny and Samantha took a look at the crowed queued up at the City Coffee Shop. It was National Coffee Day and the ‘big boss’ announced that all patrons get one small cup of coffee for free. They didn’t expect this kind of turnout!

________________
National Coffee Day celebrates coffee, the drink made from the roasted and ground beans of the coffee plant. Coffee beans originated in Ethiopia, and arabica beans are the main species, which now are grown throughout the “coffee belt”, an area between the latitudes of 25 degrees North and 30 degrees South. Seventy-five percent of the world's coffee bean production is arabica. Most of the other coffee beans are robusta beans, or “Congo coffee” beans, which are more robust.
There are different legends as to how and when the drink was first brewed. One story claims that a 6th century goatherd from Kaffa named Kaldi saw that his goats were more lively after eating coffee beans. A monk named Mullah apparently noticed this and brewed the beverage and spread word of it around the region. Another story from the 15th century claims that a 9th century mufti—a Muslim legal expert—of Aden was the first to make the drink, and it became popular in Middle Eastern courts afterwards.
Coffee was brought to Italy by 1615, and to France by 1644. It became a popular drink in the court of Louis XIV in 1669, after the Turkish ambassador introduced it to him. France later introduced a coffee seedling to the Caribbean island of Martinique, and the plant eventually spread throughout Central and South America. The Dutch introduced the coffee plant to Indonesia and Java.
The first coffee house opened in London in 1688, and around the same time in the American colonies, as the drink was introduced there in 1670 by the Dutch. During the Revolutionary War the sale of coffee increased 600 percent due to the protestation of tea, but it did not stay popular after the war, as coffee itself was expensive. In the 1860s, the American Coffee Corporation was formed and began buying beans straight from Brazil and Columbia, which made coffee less expensive to Americans. Today beans from Brazil make up about a third of those used throughout the world, and Columbia is the world's second largest provider of coffee beans.
By 1878 coffee was being sold in sealed cans. There are many popular brands today, but one of them is Maxwell House. It was served at the Maxwell House hotel in Nashville, Tennessee, and was consumed by Theodore Roosevelt in 1907. There is a debate as to if he coined their slogan, “Good to the last drop”. Another innovation in coffee, the creation of decaf coffee, came about in 1903, but it didn't gain popularity until the 1930s. Now it makes up about a quarter of the coffee market.
There are many different types of roasts of coffee, and the rise in a preference for darker roasts in the United States was fueled by the proliferation of coffee shops around the country. This boom was started with the opening of Starbucks in Seattle in 1983. There seems to be an endless debate as to if coffee is good or bad for you, but there seems to be a consensus that there are many health benefits, but some drawbacks.
How to Observe
Celebrate National Coffee Day by drinking coffee! Try a roast or type of coffee you've never had before. Make your own coffee or visit a coffee shop. Many coffee shops have deals on National Coffee Day. Maybe you can even go to one of the best coffee shops in the country.
Is religion the most cohesive or the most destructive force man has ever known? Will religion be man's greatest triumph or his greatest downfall? The Hindu and the Muslim, the Christian and the Jew. Isn't Gods religion simply that of humanity, tolerance and compassion? Why is this so complicated for us to understand?

I did a story on some coffee places for The Bold Italic.
Drinking a cup of Coffee is kinda refreshing, it gives us the feeling that something fresh, something special, something new is gonna happen!
Happy New Year to all of you :)
Good Morning Sunshine!
Needless to say which coffee cup in my "collection" is and has been my favourite and the one I continue to use today. Note: I took this amateur picture for another quasi-philosophical interpretation of life project. It seems, for me at least, most of life can be explained on The Dark Side of The Moon #DSOTM #PinkFloyd #TwitterTuesday #Coffee
Today's We're Here Challenge: International Coffee Day
Today was the first day of a Staycation. Darek grilled burgers and I microwaved corn on the cob for supper. We went to visit a friend and his cats this evening.
Well we have two things to celebrate today! One it's National Coffee day and Two (this goes along with it) we now have a new Barista!!!! My daughter officially works at Starbucks!!! Yay so happy for her!!!! (actually a day late lol)
The BJP, Left and other non-Congress parties blocked India today during 'Bharat Bandh' against the rising prices. The bandh was total in all non-Congress ruled states.
Bus, Train and Flight services were cancelled Taxis and autos did not run on the roads. Private vehicles were stopped elsewhere. Banks, business establishments and shops either remained.
Even hawkers and market stalls all gone for the day!
The IT companies in Bangalore have suffered a big loss this day , as they were forced to shut down their offices because of 'Bharat Bandh'.
Since BJP is in power in Karnataka, the party workers made all efforts to make the 'Bharat Bandh successful. The IT companies anticipated this and gave Monday off to their employees.
The major IT companies Infosys and Wipro also remained closed. However, the employees in the IT firms did not have any good news. They had to work on the following Saturday to compensate for the loss of work.
A outtake from day 63. Though I am not a fan of Coffee day Cafe, they do have some good opportunities to click some nice frothy coffees.
