1 Coffee

A bitter liquid made of water strained through coffee grounds. use to be feared by Europeans, called the "devil's drink" until it was baptized by the pope.

it's amazing how this simple liquid can bring so much to the world. Coffee is good for energy in case you pulled an all-nighter (pls don't do that) or if you're just too tired, or to have with some food and talk with others in a cafe.

it's also highly changeable. too dark? add some cream/milk. too bitter? add some sugar or other sweetener. too hot? make it iced coffee. too bland after a while? buy special flavored coffee from someplace.

now imagine a world without coffee.

everyone would be so tired all the time. no tiramisu cake, no mocha, and no Yuanyang. the horror!

so next time you have a cup of coffee, appreciate it. love it, and enjoy the aromatic flavor. it's an amazing thing to be able to have coffee almost everywhere nowadays.
