Have you heard? Tomorrow, September 29th is the 2017 National Coffee Day.

Coffee:  I’m a fan.  BIG fan.

The funny thing is, I never touched the stuff until I had my first child.  While I worried about- oh- everything during that first year, there was one constant.

Coffee became an excellent friend.

The long sleepless nights and the stress of taking care of another person can reduce significantly with a cup of caffeinated heaven.

The love affair has lasted 15 years. We’ve got a routine, coffee and me.

I wake up, get dressed and fire up the old Keurig. The drive to school drop-off goes a lot smoother with my cuppa as my co-pilot.

It makes sense that there is a day to celebrate as a nation the bean that brings us happiness.  All hail coffee!

All hail coffee!
