No show this week. With almost three days away, and some very poor quality recording I decided to scrap what I had rather than struggle to rescue it and offer something sub-par. I’ll be back next week with a stronger show and better material.

This week’s show is massively late. Sorry. Work & Life got in the way.

Sorry for the lateness of the Show this week. I had to squeeze it in around a lot of craziness, least of which had been a dodgy DSL connection. Hope you enjoy the news, and paean to Asparagus. And will someone please send me some Good News articles soon? I’m tired of all the negative stuff going on with food, already. . . .
