Kates Playground Pirate

Café Café

men living in Abyssinian highlands, where it would place called the birthplace of coffee Arabica, found the means to use, perhaps in the form of pellets composed of coffee crushed in a mortar and animal fat. The origins of the coffee plant are from time immemorial, millions of years ago, but the discovery of its features is an episode of the legend.
myths reflect a need to explain things to explore the field of wonder, that elevates us above the humdrum of life, making it more complex. The history of coffee is no exception to this rule, because that prick are three legends about its origin.
first sets the legend the Angel Gabriel, whose person is recognized in both the Arabs and the Christians. Pity for the painful vigils Muhammad, offers the first cup of refreshing coffee drinks and retrieves the Prophet health and manly strength, becoming a vigorous young man, able to ride forty horses and many other girls, which was certainly a miracle.
The intervention of the goats is a constant in the following two legends which, according to the first, an Arab shepherd, named Kaldi, was driving a herd of goats across a high plateau covered in scrub in Ethiopia. One day, the goats found a coffee plants, chewed with the babble. At night, in instead of sleep at the usual time, they began to dance and frolic to the great astonishment of our pastor, he saw how they behaved well until dawn. Wondering what could be the reason for this strange behavior, the man walked around the area where the goats had grazed and found some bushes belonging to a species that had never before encountered. The pastor, with the uncertainty embedded in their consciousness, wanted to try the mysterious fruit of nature. The story does not specify how it tasted for the first time, says French expert Michel Vanier coffee. The effect was the same as in goats: the dream did not attend the meeting and the pastor was in dance the night away. He had discovered the coffee. By chance, a pious Muslim, Sufi Abul el-Shadhili, will meet with Kaldi, and make an ample supply of coffee beans and to make a ball that allowed him, like his colleagues, to extend the night prayer and meditation and not be won by sleep. The third legend
elements similar to the previous scene placed in goats belonging to a religious community called Chehodet Arabic. wild goats of the religious meager grazing pastures foothills. Gave your hair to the community, including the skin, which provided the monks sandals and scrolls intended to collect the verses of the Koran. At sunset, the goats slept peacefully, like any other day, then came a night when the mountains echoed with their bleating and there were, galloping down the slopes. Religious, according to legend, was first attributed to the fact that the night owl, commonly called nightjars, which was known to attack goats roamed the resting place for some monks watched them for many days and nights to be realized that the goats had discovered a new bush and eating it possible to manage this concern.
