So the chaos that is the start of the semester is slowly working its was clear as it always does. I’ve been able to focus on writing more than in the past couple of months and as a result you get a new recipe that I’ve been enjoying these past couple weeks as well as a host of off the wall content as per usual. The Food and the Caffeinated bits is particularly off its hinges tonight.

This show is the second time shifted episode I’m trying out. I need more feedback on what you think of putting the show out on Monday and Thursday afternoons.  Do you like the change, should I shift it to Sunday and Wednesday Afternoon or put it back the old way?

Today we’ll be enjoying a bit of Caffeinated Jerky, Some Veggie Chili a ton of news and interesting little bits floating about.

It seems that no one can get a break around CaffiNation HQ, I’d like to thank everyone who sent well wishes over the various pieces of social media. Last Friday I came down with the same bug that was working its way through our house, and no it wasn’t swine flu.  So you’ll excuse me if this show is a bit more brief. Between worn out windpipes and a tattered immune system I’m not sure what I’ll be called on to fend off when the Little man comes back home from daycare or I enter work once more.

The news has been fertile these past few days. Some of the news is sensationalistic, other bits are salacious. Well stick to the facts and give you al the details about the serious problems, and the lighter side of the net as well.

Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated!
