Bastille Day is the French national holiday which is celebrated on July 14th of each year. In France, it is called La Fête Nationale.  Some simply use the date “le quatorze juillet” when speaking of the holiday.  The celebration is still a major holiday as once was Memorial Day or the 4th of July in the United States.  No Bastille day would complete without a parade with marching bands, military cadets, aircraft, and speeches.  Everyone is out celebrating.  France in the late 1780s was ruled by a greedy and corrupt aristocracy. The country was nearing bankruptcy, the poor had little to no food (remember the “famous” line attributed to Marie Antoinette) and the growing bourgeoisie (middle-class) were growing increasingly  powerless.

One example is as a natural neutralizer of unpleasant smells. Keeping coffee grounds in a bowl on your countertop — either spent or fresh — will help keep the whiffs away and give your kitchen a pleasing coffee smell. That's because caffeine contains nitrogen, an ingredient that has odor-absorbing properties. Scientists at The City College of New York discovered that it can even eliminate the smell of raw sewage waste, so you can safely bet it can handle a few unpleasant odors lurking in your kitchen. And it's not just the air in your kitchen that can benefit. Placing a few scoops of ground coffee in an open container inside your fridge will keep the bad smells away there, too. If you'd rather use fresh grounds than the leftovers from your morning cup, you can even make DIY coffee sachets using fine mesh bags an...
