Since this site’s title is all about coffee and the drinking of coffee, pull up a chair and have a cup with me. Here are a few things that you might have missed when watching that morning coffee drip into your pot.
*If you screamed continuously for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would produce enough energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Think of that each time you scream at those ankle biters)
*The most severe punishment for drinking coffee was being sewn into a leather bag and tossed alive into the sea.
*The name coffee comes from the Arabic word qahwah, meaning wine, and not from the town of Kaffa, in Ethiopia (Abyssinia), as many writers have supposed.
*Coffee has been used as a beverage for about 700 years.
Let your mind wander while sipping that last cup…….wait a tic…….do we ever really finish our last cup?
