Happy National Coffee Day!

It's no secret that we love Starbucks on this blog, so even though I don't drink coffee it's necessary to stop and acknowledge that it's National Coffee Day! Who knows who arbitrarily decides these days, but I blindly accept it!

So in honor of the day, here are some fun coffee facts:

• Seattle is the most "caffeinated" city with, 1640 coffee shops. (no big shocker, there). Here in Seattle, coffee breaks are taken to an art form.
• Coffee beans come from trees that take 5 years to bear fruit.
• Hawaii is the only state in the U.S. that actually grows coffee!
• Espresso is not a particular type of bean, it only denotes how the coffee bean is treated. Espresso is created by shooting hot pressurized water through finely ground coffee.
• Coffee is the second most traded commodity on earth. (Keep that in mind Pit players!)
