Coffee

by Gillian Polack

I’m exceptionally and extraordinarily clever and have come down with the latest virus. The chief symptom is that all I want to do is sleep.

I found a really interesting article on the relationship between coffee and European political history for you to read while I do all this sleeping. I’ve given you a picture of chocolate truffles, to go with the delectable coffee history.
