October 1, "International Coffee Day"

 


《"National Coffee Day"》， illustrated by dawnxisoul393




In 2014, as the "National Coffee Day" was warmly welcomed in the United States, 74 member countries of the International Coffee Organization (ICO) and 27 global coffee associations jointly designated October 1 as the "International Coffee Day".

International Coffee Day is to celebrate the prosperity and high quality of today's world coffee industry and the enthusiasm of hundreds of millions of people for coffee. This is an opportunity for all coffee lovers to share their favorite coffee, and it is also a thank you and feedback to thousands of coffee growers who have made the best efforts in coffee planting.

To celebrate this festival, ICO signed a memorandum of understanding to advocate the concept of "buying another cup of coffee for those who need it". The theme of the charity activity is "poverty eradication". Through online payment, coffee lovers around the world are encouraged to donate money for a cup of coffee online to help coffee farmers.

Many countries used to have their own "coffee festivals". The establishment of the "International Coffee Festival" jointly established by ICO and the World Coffee Association marks the unification of the World Coffee Festival.

Before our daughter was born, we went to the "Bride Pond" and "Mirror Pool" in the new territories many times. Today, the weather was fine. We went to "Bride Pool" and "Mirror Pool" with our little daughter for sketching and painting. Bride Pond and Mirror Pond were very dreamy and romantic places. It was located in the northwest of CW Freshwater Lake. It was one of the most famous scenic spots in Hong Kong Country Park, among which Bride Pond and Mirror Pond waterfalls were the most famous. There was a Bridal Pool Nature Education Road in the scenic spot. We could not only enjoy the Bride Pond and Mirror Pond waterfalls, but also know all kinds of animals and plants. There are beautiful waterfalls, dense shrubs and gurgling streams. The waterfall in Bride Pond was 15 meters high. The pool was big and deep. The pool water was clear to the bottom, showing a magnificent beauty. The valley downstream of Bride Pond was very wide and could accommodate...

Koi are treated as good luck charms in all aspects of life. The ability of koi to swim freely in the water is the envy and admiration of those who are plagued by flooding. Koi are an upscale ornamental fish that we often see in park ponds. There are many different species of koi, and they are called "living gems in the water" and "swimming works of art" because of their various patterns and beautiful appearance. Koi are prolific, reproduce well and have a high survival rate. In ancient times, when fertility rates were low, people wanted to have many children and grandchildren. Koi like to be paired and cannot live without water, so people used the metaphor of fish and water as a metaphor for the relationship between people, and thus for love and marriage. Illustrated by dawnxisoul393 The koi is also a small spirit in the eyes of the ancients, as they are extremely adaptable and can tolerate cold, alkaline, and oxygen-deprived environments. Koi are not picky about wh...
