In fact when a "father's day" was first proposed there were no Father's Day cards! Fathers Day was originally proposed as a new holiday, and first introduced as "father's day" in 1909. This special day was designed to honor fathers including Civil War veterans. The first official Father's Day was observed on June 19, 1910 in Spokane Washington. It was at this time that hundreds of towns and cities across America were beginning to celebrate "father's day". In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge strongly promoted the idea of introducing a national Father's Day. Finally in 1966 President Lyndon Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the 3rd Sunday of June as Father's Day. Father's Day has become a day to not only honor your father, but all men who act as a father figure. Stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult male friends are all honored on Father's Day.

The History of Tea:
Tea is consumed by more health-conscious people and in greater quantity than any beverage except water. Tea is made with tea leaves from the Camillia Sinensis plant which is an evergreen related to the camellia and indigenous to Assam India and also parts of China and Japan. The lanceolate tea leaves are dark green with cream-colored fragrant blossoms. The flavor of tea is due to volatile oils, its stimulating properties to caffeine and its astringency to the tannin content. The largest tea grower in the world is China. Tea requires a protected habitat in a warm climate with much rainfall in order to grow.
