Morning!  Today’s thought to share with your friends and network is the following.

Did you know that drinking coffee has patriotic roots in America?  According to KoffeeCorner,

The heavy tea tax imposed on the colonies in 1773, which caused the "Boston Tea Party," resulted in America switching from tea to coffee. Drinking coffee was an expression of freedom.

Now if that’s not a reason to enjoy coffee, I don’t know what it!  :)

Enjoy,

Barbara

ps – speaking about coffee, did you know that Amazon.com offers coffee makers at quite the discount?  They’re not just about books!  Check out:
