300th!

Can't believe I have reached my 300th blip! Not long to go to complete my 1st year!
Eric Favre, an aerodynamics engineer from Switzerland, was working for a well known Swiss company when he set about trying to create the perfect espresso coffee for his wife. She is Italian and teased her husband about the bland coffee the Swiss drank. They got their inspiration from Italian cafes. His company produced the first coffee capsules in 1975 with the first nespresso capsules being commercially available in 1986. Thanks to Mr Clooney, they have become popular around the world.
P.S. other capsules are available and I always recycle my coffee pods!
