Coffee came to Europe in the 17th century and led to coexistence and many coffee houses were created. In 1756, coffee was banned in Sweden by law. Before it was punishmented, it was taxed. Invite your neighbors over for a cuppa! Why not organize a coffee rope or Syjunta, as it was called in the 19th and 20th centuries, a kind of knot party. The custom describes that 7 types of cake were served as well as cake, bun and other soft cake. If you had more than seven kinds of cake, it was considered that the hostess was proud, i.e. ready for a fall and that misfortune approaching. Then it was the women who met without the children and there was a lot of gossip. In today's times, perhaps something similar should be organized in residential areas. Coffee came from Saudi Arabia. Legend say that an Arab shepherd discovered that the sheep were happy and alert when they ate of a coffee bush. Monks from a nearby monastery tried to boil tea on the red berries, which led to their sleep problems. Then the coffee was spread around the world. It is said that coffee is very useful in preventing both cancer and dementia and is super social and thus antidepressant and prolongs life.
