YO HAPPY THIRSTY THURSDAY.
Since these upcoming weeks are going to all end up with late nights, we thought it would be fitting to share a fact about coffee!

Did you know?
-"Americans consume 400 million cups of coffee per day. This is the equivalent to 146 billion cups each year, making the U.S. the leading consumer of coffee." (goodhousekeeping.com)

HAPPY WASTED WEDNESDAY!!

Did you know?

-"An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year"
