Caffeinated Post

I am a coffee lover. The caffeinated life gives me a rush. I believe some of the most of the interesting things start with a cup of coffee. For instance if someone wants to ask a girl out for the first time, coffee is the best option. It helps in surviving through the awkwardness of first date, or fighting stress during the blunder ones. If somebody is going through jitters of bad relationships, announcing breakups over a cup of coffee discharges the anxiety.

It has become life’s blood for many of us. It works wonders during long philosophical discussions, cracking deals with clients, calling for insomnia to study or work all night to meet deadlines and in those introspective moods, it boosts our creativity.

I am sharing here some interesting Facts about coffee that I gathered from various sites on internet:
