National Coffee Day

September 29th is National Coffee Day.  Now, I haven't heard of it until this year, however everyone seems to be celebrating.  Time to get in on the action.  In the link below, there is a short story about the possible origin of one of the most traded and consumed commodities in the world.  There is also a link inside the link to some of the coffee companies around the U.S. that will be participating in free or discounted coffee drinks for the holiday.  It's definitely worth the few clicks.  Not included in their list is Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf (one of my favorite coffee places).  At participating locations, they will be offering 1/2 off iced coffee, flavored iced coffee or iced americano drinks all day.

I'm looking forward to celebrating but not really sure where I will end up.  Possibly a new cafe to explore?  Or a favorite cup at home with the husband and Nugget.  I could also meet with friends, maybe even over Skype.  Share with me how you celebrate.  Take it in, savor the break in the day, snap a photo.  That little cup is more then just a drink.  It's an international symbol to relax and bond.
A friend of mine recently sent me a shirt for the holiday.  I'll be sporting it wherever I end up.  The shirt's message rings true, everyday is National Coffee Day.  Enjoy.
