Testing syndication from idno, which had disappeared a while back. I wasn't happy with the formatting of the shared post before, so perhaps this will prompt me to improve that. No good. Reverting to CDN's fix

I do have vague recollections of caffeine being a sleep blocker rather than an arousal mechanism of some sort, and I have to say I have never personally experienced a coffee buzz nor coffee induced insomnia.

More Sustainable School Meals

Cover art: Swedish children sit at a table eating the school lunch provided to every child for free.

Lates episode: Hipster baristas and Chinese Espresso

1 min read

Cover art. A very dark espresso coffee in a glass cup, the better to see the essential cream floating on top, with coffee still emerging from the machine.

Latest episode looks at the hipster baristas and Chinese espresso, both of which show that even traditions that define an identity are not as immutable as people sometimes think they are.
